Game #12 | #2 Ohio State vs. #3 Xichigan | Nov. 25th, 2023 @ 12PM EST

Cant believe we let these fucks win. Having to listen to their fans is bad enough, but we also get mid-ass players like Roman Wilson talking shit, too.

Dark day for the program. Really going to stew all offseason.

 

[Chris]

The defense gave up 23 points. Not great, but that should be good enough to win a top 5 matchup.

Yeah, this is my take as well.

At the same time is it too much to ask to get a second half punt? Or a turnover god forbid?

Cheating aside, if you swapped coaching staffs before the season, OSU wins right?

That's unacceptable.

Yea. Day is too risk averse.

Thing is, it helps with not blowing games you should win.

But doesn't help against teams like Michigan where you need to take risks.


Someone needs to Day the way the league is set up he can actually lose a game to like Maryland but if he beats Michigan it won't matter. OSU still goes to the Big Ten title game and then to the CFP if they win the B10 championship.

STart taking more risks and have stuff ready for this game.


I remember Tressel teams always had a bunch of extra stuff ready to go for Michigan. Tons of secret plays they didn't run all year. I see none of that with Day.

It's also worth noting a ton of Michigan's drives were kept alive because McCarthy can scramble and McCord is a statue.

If you're gonna be a statute, you had damn well better be better than McCord throwing the ball.

A ton of their 4th and 1s were set up because McCarthy scrambled for 5-6 yards on 3rd and long to set them up.

We have no such threat. We haven't had that threat in years.

Justin Fields, but otherwise your point stands.

Brothers I said it's been years.

Justin Fields was 4 whole seasons ago now.

I’m not really disagreeing, it’s just it was only a couple QBs ago.

But I may have somehow misinterpreted that to think you were speaking of a longer time ago. I blame a few Holiday Cheers while setting up Christmas trees and chasing around a toddler.

Regardless, if this program is actually serious about contention, it can’t be with the same QBs on the roster. Just can’t. Bar none this is the worst it’s been since the lost season with Joe Bauserman.

 

[Rich]

I think it's long past time for Larry Johnson to move on.

The defense took major strides this year but our DEs continue to underperform and have for some time.

We are getting the recruits, but the results aren't there.

Agreed 100%. And goes without saying, but so does Parker Fleming.

Those are two musts this offseason. And that's just the beginning.
