OK folks.
This is getting serious now.
Enough excuses. Time to start playing ball.
The natives are getting restless and the playoff committee is going to start wondering.
Excuse me for being blunt.
Buckeyes, quit the crap. Get your heads out and start playing like a defending champion. That’s all I want to see.
What else is tBBC staff looking forward to?
Scott (I’m the author, I get to go first)
Win: Obviously we need to keep the streak going.
Look good: This should be self explanatory.
Mali Buckeye
Points: 40 or more, please.
Decisiveness: An offense that moves with purpose, on purpose. (That’s a subtle “no false starts” request).
Da’ Truth: Let’s enjoy the Raekwon Experience a bit on Saturday, shall we?
Aggressiveness: On defense? Not a problem. On offense? Yes, please..
Ken
Convincing win (3 TD or more): As #1 we have an image to protect.
No injuries: Fairly self explanatory.
An offense that knows what the hell it’s doing: Not sure how to judge that one :).
Charles
Offense: After last week, I don’t think much more needs to be said here.
Continued improvement in the kicking game: Last week was much better, but I need to see continued good performances.
Limit the penalties: Wth the offense struggling, we can’t afford to give back yards when we have the ball.
No more than 1 interception: The offense also cannot afford to turn the ball over at this point.
Wva Buckeye
Don’t be gun shy: Stop being so tentative with the play calling and believe in the playmakers. We know what they can do. Let them do it.
Silver Bullets. Silver Bullets. Silver Bullets: Can’t stress enough how good it feels to just say those words.
Stick with whomever starts: JT OR Cardale has been the question for some time. It really hasn’t been answered. Stick with the one that it starts working for.
Patrick
J.T. Barrett: Well, my guess is it will be by mid-second quarter that we will see JT after Cardale and the offense sputters. I’m beginning to think a couple of things … 1) Urban promised the starting QB job to Cardale if he came back, or 2) If you win Urban a ring as QB, you pretty much write your own ticket there after. I don’t understand not giving JT a chance to start after what he did last year and the fact Cardale has underachieved. There’s an old saying in sports, “you don’t lose your starting job because of an injury.”
Defense: The defense has taken its game to a level we have not seen in Urban’s tenure. Continue this dominance and hold WMU to under 10 points.
EZE: Even though he’s had his consecutive 100 yard game streaks continued, he’s yet to have “a moment”. It’s time for EZE to take over a game and produce one of those post-season 200+ yard games.
WR play: The WR play has been less that acceptable. Time to see these guys earn their keep. Michael Thomas should have 12+ targets a game, easily.
Mike
A can of whoop ass on offense: Drop 60 plus.
“A Star Is Born” at QB: No preference either way just someone stand out for positive play.
Defense keeping its Silver Bullet identity with great play: No explanation needed.
Special special teams: It would be nice to see a kick blocked.
