No, you sir, are the idiot. Go watch the play in motion again. The safety starts out moving towards Wingo but when he realizes Manning isn't looking there he stops. I am not sure if you are athletic at all or played ball with any high level athletes, but they cover ground really fast. That safety probably runs a 4.4 40. There are 6-7 yards between him and Wingo. That ball needs to travel 15 yards at that angle. He will get there when Wingo catches that ball.
You see the reason why Ohio State was number one in the country defensively last year isn't because they called magic plays on defense, it's because they had bigger, faster players. They were the stingiest team in the country in the red zone for a reason. Because they can close on plays like these and dislodge the football. Later we are going to run this same play vs MSU or UTEP and Parker Livingstone is going to be open by a mile on the break, and Wingo will walk into the EZ on that rub. But on this day Livingstone was getting his pockets checked the whole way through his route and Wingo would've gotten hit as soon as he caught the football. The only way that doesn't happen is if Manning throws it as soon as the rub happens, but he smartly waits to see if it's man or zone since Ohio State fooled him earlier in the game.
