*****Ohio State Game Day Thread*****

[Born N Bled Red]

Up, Nebraska got a break. Time for the refs to screw em

Ya'll, it's year 3, and you haven't gotten used to the idea that Frost's teams tend to be undisciplined? 

 

[Branno]

How do they see that hold but none of the massive holds from OSU?

 

[NebraskaHarry]

It's truly amazing to me that Ohio State's O-line does exactly the same s*** as Nebraska's O-line but only Nebraska gets called for holding. No wonder the Big 10 has the worst, most biased refs in the nation.

This game isn't going how we hoped, but lets look at the bigger picture.  We're more physical up front, on both sides of the ball.  We can run the ball consistently and stop the run.  We'll be in every game on the schedule the rest of the year.   

We'll need to develop the younger more athletic talent at WR, and get them on the field.  That is extremely clear.  Playing in empty stadiums, and the boost that provides in the ability to communicate on the field should make this more feasible this year than in "normal" years. 

Don't know what we're gonna do in regards to pass defense.  Every team won't have Fields and OSUs receivers, so I would hope we see more physical play in the secondary and not just free releases and 10 yard cushions 90% of the time.  

Adrian is just Adrian.  I'm not ready to can him just yet, but damn.  I'd like to see what kind of arm Luke has though, just to see where we are.  Side note, I really hated the off-season narrative that the QB battle reinvigorated Adrian's fire.  I don't like guys who only fight when they're backed into a corner.  I'd rather have a guy whose got the dog in him regardless of circumstances.

We've made significant strides from the end of last year to today.  That growth doesn't stop, we'll continue to improve week to week.

Maybe repost after the 4th quarter? 
 

you might be able to add to it.

I feel like I'm watching a different defense than the people calling for Chin's head.

THANK YOU! OSU has been holding our boys all game! 

 

[PaulCrewe]

This now comes a turd possession, being put behind the sticks.   THe one consistent thing with this offense is any negative first play and the series goes straight to s#!t.  Been like that for years

That’s what I’m saying too.   1 penalty all game in the first game of the year?!?!?   Not likely.

Run defense is way better than I thought...this is always the best group of WR's and QB we see all year.

They will lose by 28+ but I actually am impressed.  

 

[Decked]

This game is infuriating but the talent is coming. It’s coming. Ethan Piper please.

The pass defense is awful

If you think our team being undisciplined is the root of the penalties, you’re not watching.

Pretty impressed with holding them to 4.5 ypc so far.  Hopefully we can find more pass rush as the season goes along.

Wasnt that the spread?
