well

I was starting to think that Ohio State was on the right track and regaining the "respect" from the national perception that they lost with the big game losses to LSU and Florida

and then this..........

I consider the most embarassing loss of my lifetime, and certainly the most embarrassing loss that any team has suffered in this season

A 1-5 team that was handeled by Northern Illinois just basically dominated our beloved Buckeyes

we have been waiting and waiting for an offense to click, and here we are 7 games and and still nothing its been "it will come next week" after every week, yet it has yet to come over halfway through the season

not to go into a bashing rant, but when I basically know which play is going to be called before it is ran, that is incredibly predictable, and it looks like the opponents have latched ln to the predictability as well?\

what is the answer here though? is a coaching change needed? maybe Joe Bauserman needs to be given a shot since what is being tried now obviously isnt working? a total offensive overhaul of some sorts?

I just dont really know anymore, maybe we have been giving ourselves false hope over the past few years that it will all come together

thats about all I have to say

and well ill always be a buckeye fan win or lose :oh:

Why do we get this crap after every loss?

Cant people just accept that we cant win them all?

Edit: False hope??

4 B10 titles in a row last I checked.


I agree here...........to a point. I am not concerned that we lost, what concerns me is the regression of this team, especially on the offensive side of the ball. The offensive line has been horrible. I think it's time for Bollman to go..... This isn't normally my thing (to bash coaches), but the writing is on the wall.

OSU Football Overall Look

First I just want to say, mods if this post should go somewhere go ahead and put it somewhere...but I didn't feel, it was an offense post, purdue game post, defense, post, but overall where is this program...

So let me start...

Anyone that says Jim Tressell should go is out of their mind. The guy has brought great things to this program. He has brought us a NC, multiple big ten championships, and a great record against Michigan.

Anyone that says we need an OC, I open my ear to, becuast I think we would all like to see the offense be able to do more, at this point I don't care what the problems are, but since Jim has been here we really haven't performed on offense as well as most fans would like us to. Yes we have peformed at a level which has allowed us to win most games we have played in, but why not put those game away on offense than letting them hang around and pinning it on the defense.

So lets looks overall. We can play against anyone in the country. Bring Florida, Alabama, Texas, USC and I think we have the overall ability to play with any of them, and I could make a case why we can play with them. But we wouldn't be favored in any of them.

We have kinda been lead to believe we were there, by getting there in 2006 with a very good team, that got hit in the mouth and wasn't quite ready for it and then a team in 07 that backed in, and had every chace to win that game.

The big ten is down, we are down, i say about Boise if you put them in the SEC they would lose 3 games, well if you put us in the SEC we would lose 3 or so games...Think if we had to go against Florida, LSU, Bama, Georgia, UT, Ole Miss, Arkansas...We have been kinda lucky to play against the big ten...but think about those strong Miami teams, that many said the same thing about when they were playing agaisnt Big East teams, but they were at least kicking their ass...

I truly believe JT is trying to evolve he has stepped up the recruiting...We are not just brining in top guys from Ohio, but PA, FL, IN, MI, etc...He is also trying to give the offense over to Hazell...

But we are in a transistion period. the big ten is trying to come back, we are very young this year...

I do belive that alot of it relies on Pryor's development...I thought he looked great in the Spring game, he has shown many moments in his play here, he has a good arm, when he steps into throws he can make plays, he can surely make plays with his legs, but the mental part of the game is lacking, his ability to make smart plays, read a defense, and be the leader is not quite there yet.

If we land another big class this year, cotinue to open up the offense a little bit we can be right there, and on top, and honeslty it is hard to swallow a lose, but a top 5 finish in the regular season and a bowl lose would not be a good thing for us this season...Now lets regroup, much like we did after losing to Iowa a couple years ago, finish the season out strong, the Rose is still there if we finish out, win a bowl game and go into next season, with a tested team that is ready to take it to the next level.
