2014 Ohio State Buckeye Football Game 3: Kent State at #22 Ohio State at Ohio Stadium (Columbus, Ohio) Date: September 13th TV: ABC/ESPN2 Kick Off: Noon Vs
Turn the page... we're undefeated in conference play. Let's get some experience before conference play.
If we win 63-0 don't begin to erase that nightmare losing to the 'Hokies' i'm having a hard time getting over it and doubt i will,help me out here.
Pipe dream optimism: Of course a win would be ∞ better, the loss to VT created a potentially great narrative for Ohio State. If we somehow continue to improve and pull out a win against MSU, and go undefeated from here... we're in the playoff. By the time December rolls around, outsiders will look back on the VT game and put the loss squarely on JT Barrett's bad numbers. The narrative would be, "Ohio State lost to a good defense when they were still breaking-in a freshman quarterback. JT Barrett was 31% with 3INTs and they were still tied in the fourth quarter." Nevermind the terrible spots we put JT in, nobody will remember that... They'll just check the box score. Of course, we still need to get better in many areas... like I said, "pipe dream optimism".
i would love nothing more than to win out and make the playoffs, but i really think a one loss B1G team will not make it, i really feel the committee has already blacklisted the B1G this year. Plus if Pat Hayden is willing to come down and argue with officials about a 5 yard penalty what kind of bias and stupidity will be see from this Committee. the Latest has FSU, Bama, UGA, and Oregon realistically Oregon and UGA shoudl be 1 and 2 in the polls IMO. Both FSU and Bama have drastically underwhelmed IMO. Last year FSU was putting 60 up on fools like Citadel, and many think they're a better team this year. Bama had to hold onto dear life and rely on WV beating themselves
Thanks for trying,however i still see an OL thats bad,i like JT and got NO help from his receivers who dropped numerous balls (the drop by C.Smith) was a killer and the special teams sucked,2 missed FG, are these boo-boos correctable ?? i like to think so. What concerns me the most is they knew VT would crowd the line of scrimage,(8/9 men) yet the coaches T.Herman did NOTHING to counteract it,thats BS. We were vastly outcoached ,unaceptable.
If we have 9 for the game,it don't mean squat,the damage has been done. On Sat.E.Carolina is @ VT @ 12 Noon on ESPN,will shall see if they are for real.
On friday Toledo is @ Cincinnati(their first game) suggest u watch them,our opponent after K.S. Haven't given up but don't see much improvement if coaches don't wake up and call different plays to suit the talent we have (or do we?) especially Herman.
Swastika ?? why would i have that,got a bald Eagle on my thigh.Ever see a flick 'The boys from Brazil" good flick about Joseph Mengle the butcher of Bavaria.My tix are spoken for.
