YoloinOhio Posted September 17, 2015 Author Posted September 17, 2015 This is so, so true. We left the Hawaii game in the 3rd qtr to go to the Varsity Club. Wtf. I need perspective. @11W: Ohio State fans have become desensitized to what normal college football games feel like. http://t.co/HV8HROFGDthttp://t.co/m6lzjXUNdU Quote
Willyville Guy Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Don't you dare apologize for going to the VC! Quote
YoloinOhio Posted September 17, 2015 Author Posted September 17, 2015 Don't you dare apologize for going to the VC!well I was there pre-game and then went back because I was so upset with the offense. It actually brought good vibes. I think we were up 17-0 or so and could barely move the ball and then things just steamrolled (thanks to EZE and Von Bell) Quote
boyst Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Look, I like the MAC. I love it when they can upset the big boys. But, what in the !@#$? Now, I am not overreacting yet because I know this is just walking up to a bulldog and punching him in the face. The Bucks better fire themselves up. Quote

Willyville Guy Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Here's to hoping that Herman will be the next coach of the Buckeyes. He has Houston undefeated and looking inspired. As for the game, ugh. At least it's great to see a dominant defense in Cbus again. Quote

Willyville Guy Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 So today Meyer said that Jones is the starting QB. Jones has started every game this season, so I'm not 100% sure why this is big news. Maybe it means Jones will be allowed more time to work through early-game issues - instead of getting benched for Barrett if he has two poor series. I'm more concerned about Ed Warinner trying to juggle OC responsibilities (especially play calling) and also coach the oline. That might be too much for one guy to handle. I heard something about the QB coach calling plays from up in the booth this week. We'll see how it goes.... Quote

I heard something about the QB coach calling plays from up in the booth this week. We'll see how it goes.... the change in OC has had a negative affect for two reasons. One, Warriner was a great OL coach but so far not in Herman's class as an OC. Second, the OL has suffered since he moved to OC which has exascerbated the other offensive issues. I don't know if Beck in the booth can help, but I am all for trying something new. I hope they find a deep threat to replace Devin (how on earth do they not have one waiting in the wings with all these 4 and 5 star recruits from Florida?) because if not they are wasting Cardale's arm. I do hope they don't yank him after every bad series. Last week was so painful. Edited September 24, 2015 by YoloinOhio Quote

Buffalo Barbarian Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 looks like OSU and MSU are overrated this yr Quote
Willyville Guy Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 While I'm sitting here stressing every game and wringing my hands over how and why the offense isn't farther along, Urban has been saying all week that he feels the team is making substantial progress and is on the brink of an offensive breakthrough. Normally I'd write that off as coachspeak, but Urban has never been one to sugarcoat his assessment of where one of his teams is at a particular point in time. He sees something he likes. Last year from the Michigan game forward every single player was super motivated to do his part to support the third-string QB -- practicing and playing hard to support Jones was a rallying point that helped bring the entire team even closer than it had been following the big conference games against Penn St. and MSU. That bond kept everyone loose as the lights became brighter and brighter. My guess is that the Miller-Barrett-Jones situation over the summer and earlier this season shifted the QB position from a rallying point to a distraction. They need to get back to the point where the team is rallying around Jones and not looking to see what he will do next or wondering if JT will be rotated back in. Easier said than done, but again Urban is seeing something that he likes. Quote

Ohiostyle Posted October 17, 2015 Posted October 17, 2015 Another fairly run of the mill hype video, but i thought the end was well done. https://youtu.be/wOK5L997JcM Quote

Ohiostyle Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 WOW! Sparty was gifted a win. As they say, my two favorite teams are OSU, and ANYONE who beats *ichigan Quote
YoloinOhio Posted October 18, 2015 Author Posted October 18, 2015 Great win! Need to shore up the run D, seems they really missed Josh Perry. JT is the all time QB now, right? The Michigan loss just the icing on the cake! Quote

YoloinOhio Posted October 18, 2015 Author Posted October 18, 2015 ? all time = not just red zone Quote
Willyville Guy Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 (edited) He has to be. JT running the zone read brought back all of the warm and fuzzies. That is how this offense is supposed to work -- sick athletes running in every different direction and whomever makes an LB or DB panic first gets the ball. Jones in a pro style set was an experiment that might have worked if they continued to fine tune it over the course of the rest of the season, but there is no need. The swagger is back with JT in there. The defense on the other hand.... Barkley is good, but 200 yards? Ugh. Something is wrong with Lee -- he must be hurt. Invisible for several games in a row now. But Joey Bosa is coming on strong so that helps. As for Michigan, well, that is what I call "Blue Balls." Edited October 18, 2015 by Willyville Guy Quote
