What the fuck are you talking about? The fucking guy destroyed the punter and I didn't see him get any piece of the ball. It was bull[Mark May].

He absolutely got a piece of the ball. Take off the scarlet goggles.

I'm not blaming the fucking refs. I'm blaming OSU's pathetic line (offensive and defensive) play.

When you point out two officials calls - while saying nothing about what you just said there - it strangely looks like you're blaming the refs.

This post will probably get lost in whatever is going on past page 111 (that's where my browser tab still has it), but we were going to lose this year. As long as it wasn't to Penn State or Michigan, and it was to a team that wasn't an embarrassment......things could be worse. Add in the fact that this loss fucks Michigan over...I'm not looking for the nearest ledge.

Oh yeah, and there's this:

2. Ohio State has started a season 10-0-0 on eleven previous occasions. Below is a chart showing each previous 10-0-0 season along with the team's final record, final poll ranking, and a look at how the Buckeyes finished that season:

The Buckeyes' record after starting a season at 10-0-0 is 15 wins, 10 losses. Wins get tougher to come by as the season winds down.
The Buckeyes' record after starting a season 10-0-0 now falls to 15 wins, 11 losses. It's tough to win them all, and this team has been skating on thin ice all year. Now maybe the pressure will be off and this team can go out and pound Michigan in a game that means nothing in the Big Ten championship or playoff picture.

Now it's time to play for pride.

Forgetting the atrocious play calling for a second, Beck should be gone just based on how much the QB play regressed (Cardale), or at least showed no improvement (JT). With how Herman is coaching in Houston we're seeing just how much that affects a team. When you add in the play calling...well, we've seen it all year. Hopefully Meyer can talk Warinner into going back to just the O-line coach at the same pay and bringing in a dedicated offensive coordinator.
