Youngstown St. at tOSU, Sat. 9/9, 12pm EST, BTN

Awesome report! Glad you’re here btw and Welcome!
PenguinPower is a great YSU fan and supporter on the various message boards out there. He knows his stuff!

I wanted to add a few more links (a YSU podcast and YSU Twitter Space) that can help you learn a bit more about our YSU football program in advance of Saturday's game in Columbus. Both episodes this week are about an hour long, but worth the listen.

We are looking forward to making the 2.5 hour trip down from Youngstown!

Yea you gotta get McCord into slinging it to see if he can indeed do it. Waiting until the ND game for that might go bad.

Id also love to have it on tape that he can sling it.
I can guess Freemans approach will be the same as Indiana: stuff the run and force QB to be consistent and accurate for points.
Having him go ham, even on an FCS team, at least gives opponents pause and something to think about.
If he can't, then it's going to be a long season with 8-9 defenders in the box against a weak OL.

I am rewatching in a bit, but everything I saw live was mostly assignment issues rather than getting beat by his man. I was watching Simmons very closely because he is the #1 key to success this year on offense, but I will rewatch it today.
Quoting myself here, but will confirm this after rewatching the game. There were two plays he got bull rushed, but also eliminated the rusher to expand the pocket. Where he failed was missing assignments and not communicating properly with his OL imo.

Obviously not ideal, but understandable from a new transfer and I don't think talent or physicality is an issue. That would be the real concern.
