  1. Yeah man. It's over. Take your cue(see what I did there?) from black folks and just shave it. Especially now that we are in the beard era.
  2. Come on buddy. It's Nebraska, Penn State and Michigan. You know damn well what running scheme they were using. Straight fast balls with the occasional circle change. IMO, you are correct with Ohio State. They aren't Georgia. They go 6'5 260-270 at the edges, and 6'3 327 and 6'3 300 at the DT's. Georgia is even stouter up the middle but much more athletic on the edges. They weren't giving up explosives against those teams in the run game but they were getting themselves in manageable 3rd downs. Oregon was 6-14 on 3rd down. Nebraska was 5 of 16. Michigan was 7 of 14. Penn State? Well, they were too busy Franklining. If we can run the ball and get to 3rd and short we have a good chance to beat them. The question is will Sark be patient enough? That dudes loves him some deep shots. He just can't help himself.
  3. That's the word.
  4. So if you really look into the numbers Ohio State absolutely feasted on the bottom feeders in their conference. Supposedly they are the number 1 rush defense in the country but if you look at anyone with a pulse they played the numbers are different. Against Nebraska, Penn State, Oregon, Michigan, and Tenn they gave up over 4 yards per carry and between 120-172 yards per game each. It's the quarterback play that wasn't good against them outside of Oregon. Nebraska threw for 152 and a pick. Penn State threw for 146 and a pick. Michigan threw for 62 yards and 2 picks. Tenn threw for 104. They just haven't been challenged by a good quarterback at all other than Gabriel. If we run the ball for over 100 yards look out!
  5. We must remember that a person's ability to read and retain information doesn't make them a critical thinker. I think that is a mistake we make on a daily basis in this country. I know a lot of people who got good grades through school because of memorization. The smartest guy was the guy who could find the answer to the math problem using some backwards method that the teacher wouldn't accept as "showing your work".
  6. Anyone notice something super important missing from the Ohio State offense?
  7. Indiana benefited from their schedule and got trounced as soon as they played anyone with a pulse. Tenn is a man to man defense, and mediocre offensively when not piling up stats vs middle school OOC teams. Arkansas and Georgia played them better than you did defensively Just a horrible matchup for you guys. Oregon moved the ball on you pretty effortlessly, they just played horrible defense. The next top team Penn State beats will be the first top team Penn State beats. The Michigan game was not a fluke. They stifled your run game and got after the quarterback. We will do the same.
  8. Yeah, in hindsight 1969 USC would've beat our ass.
  9. Where are all the black people?
  10. I was looking at your schedule. Akron, Western Michigan, Marshall, Michigan State, Iowa, Nebraska, Penn State(James Franklin in big games), Purdue, Northwestern, and Indiana. No wonder you are "the best defense in America". You talk about us facing inferior offenses when this is the gauntlet you went through? None of those teams even have the DUDES on the line to remotely challenge you much less the QB and receiver play. At least in the SEC teams still have dudes in the trenches. The first real NFL level D-line you faced and you got beat by a QB who threw for 62 yards. 62!!

  12. Yessir indeed he did. Sark needs to bring back the Agbo package and run downhill on OSU. Major was struggling big time. Falling at people feet repeatedly.

  14. I get what @Longhornlove is saying. It's the same way we shun Bill Russell for Jordan. It's more eye test as you cannot compare eras. Street won a lot of games but VY was the Michael Jordan of college football. Just eye-popping talent.

  17. Michigan came out with seemingly everyone on the line of scrimmage and just mashed Ohio State. Over and over. Then they dinked a little pass every now and again and just mashed them some more. I wish Sark had the patience to do that but he doesn't. He should. Wear them out. Frustrate their offense. But you cannot run OZ or WZ. You have to run right at them. Change out your RB and run at them again.

  21. Here is Downs for Ohio State at almost 10 yards depth. Here he is a moment later being someone of concern 4 yards off the line of scrimmage. And here he is setting the edge. Nowadays you have to count that guy in the box or he will murder your run game.
  22. No one said it was terrible. We are simply looking at the running game here. Some plays will be acceptable and some will be terrible. Now back to the play. With today's athletes if a safety is inside 10 yards he is a box defender. Count him. You are going to see Downs for Ohio State at this depth a lot on Friday. You better account for him in the run game.
  23. Yes. It has many options.
  24. Your definition of "in the box" is from the 80's and why Sark kept calling running plays vs ASU. That dude has two jobs. Get downhill as fas as you can in the run game. Notice who makes the tackle. And be a deterrent for Sark's layer concept that we always run where we run a post over a 15 yard dig. They are closing the middle of the field while also loading the box. Dude has no man he is guarding so think he isn't a box defender if you want to but that's how you run for 54 yards on 23 carries. If Helm stays in he is a box defender.
