OHIO STATE@MICHIGAN====== YOUR THOUGHTS.
Hey first off congratulations to the Michigan State Spartans yesterday on a fine effort as they topped #3 and unbeaten Ohio State.It was a nerve wracking affair to watch the whole time. The Spartans came out with a running game that was dragging our defenders for yards after contact.They played awesome defense and special teams, And they earned the victory.
I didn't get Ohio State's offensive game plan at all frankly. We have arguably the best running back in the nation, And let Barrett be our running game. 3rd and 2/3 and we're in an empty backfield, With recievers split out all over and call a qb draw.No threat of a passing game at all just stuff like that. Defensively we held an awesome Sparty offense to a mere 17. The bad news was they only needed 15. Great showing by both squads,Football is awesome in ''Big Ten Country''. And my Buckeyes will rebound and get ready for Michigan. Go Bucks beat Michigan.

If Urban fires the sad excuse for an off cord or takes over 100% of the play calling, Ohio State wins by 24 or more.If not Michigan wins by 6.

Didn't Myers say he called most of the plays?

He did, but you know he was only saying that, so he would not have to throw the OFF CORD under the bus.noreply66 wrote:Didn't Myers say he called most of the plays?

All Hail Sparty !!!!
I fear TOSU has folded their tents for 2015. Will Elliot even play after his criticism of play calling? Although my heart says otherwise, M*chigan rolls the Bucks 28-0.

Re: OHIO STATE@MICHIGAN====== YOUR THOUGHTS.
This is a game where records mean nothing. Harbaugh is a Coach who is not afraid to take chances. He plays to win. OSU has played not to lose. This game is all over the place from a close game to 3TD's win for either side. Right now the Team Up North is playing more team ball. Playing at home they should have the advantage. If OSU plays like they did at the end of the year as underdogs and plays to win then it will be different.
Right now UM wins at home. A lot can change this week.

Re: OHIO STATE@MICHIGAN====== YOUR THOUGHTS.
As crazy as this sounds. I think Meyer will bench Elliott. Its very obvious Elliott's mind is NOT on the team at ALL. But rather on his future in the NFL. And it seems hes not one bit appreciative of everything Buckeye Nation has done to support him. Its sad to see this unfold in this way.
Re: OHIO STATE@MICHIGAN====== YOUR THOUGHTS.
He sure did,he said on the post game interview,now whether or not he is covering for somebody is another story.I would thought as lousy as this offense has been this year he would have done it before nownoreply66 wrote:Didn't Myers say he called most of the plays?
Re: OHIO STATE@MICHIGAN====== YOUR THOUGHTS.
Maybe all this blathering and embarrassment by the players after the game yesterday was just due to frustration and the shock of losing, something their not used to and they didn't know how to handle it.I still think he meant what he said about leaving because I thought that when he was crying in the pregame, he knew then it was his last game, but maybe by some miracle he and the others will chill out starting today at practice and focus on the task at hand.They don't have long to get over this that's for sure.Too bad they couldn't have played Sparty earlier in the year to get this out of their system.Valenth wrote:As crazy as this sounds.

Re: OHIO STATE@MICHIGAN====== YOUR THOUGHTS.
Elliott just said what we at home have been saying all year. It's ridiculous! I believe Elliott said it has been an issue all year and he has spoke up before now. The line blocks best with the power run scheme and Elliott said they would be successful with that and then all of a sudden go away from it and try to get fancy. It's been taking place all year and for some reason yesterday was BEYOND INSANE! I cannot comprehend the play calling that took place yesterday. NO WAY NO HOW do the Buckeyes lose to Sparty with better play calling. HORRENDOUS!!!!!!!!!
If Meyer was calling the plays I'd be shocked, he is a much better coach than that. If he wasn't calling the plays he should have made it clear what he expected in the second half or even taken over the play calling. For the best RB in the Country to touch the ball twice in the 2nd half is INEXCUSABLE! And one of those runs was a delay. Elliott ran the ball more times than Zeke. And how many plays were ran without Elliott in the game at all. At least with him in the game the defense has to key on him.
One deep ball to a WIDE OPEN Miller is overthrown and they never went back to it - UNREAL!
If the Buckeyes don't make some changes this week the Buckeyes will get smoked in the Big House. Ohio State with the most/best talent in the Big Ten and it's going to waste.

Re: OHIO STATE@MICHIGAN====== YOUR THOUGHTS.
I agree 100%. At any point Meyer could have cut Beck and Warriner from the play calling. Call a timeout, get the offense JACKED and tell them "I'm calling the plays and we are going to shove it down Spartys throat"!smurray wrote:Elliott just said what we at home have been saying all year.

But he didn't. I don't believe for one second he was calling the plays. Urban will not undermine someone he hand picked for this staff.
Going forward, he will ship Beck out of Columbus, Warriner will be limited to the O line only and Meyer will bring in a high profile OC.
But this is on Meyer. He is the coach. He could have stopped this clown show at any time.
I can hear it now through the headsets:
Beck: We should run JT right.
Warriner: But we just ran JT left.
Beck: He will break one sooner or later and let's face it, we could use a first down. We don't have many of those. What do you think Urban?
Zeke: put me in....lets run those plays we gashed them on in the first quarter.
Beck: Zeke that's too obvious. Stay with me on the bench. What do you think Urban?
Meyer: .........crickets...........
Beck: since Zeke is on the bench on this 3rd and 2, lets run JT up the middle. They'll never see it coming.
Warriner: That didn't work.
Meyer: Punt team! Punt team! Let's go defense! Where is Fickell?
Fickell: I'm over here coach. I'm teaching Joey how to watch the ball and not jump offsides. We should practice form tackling at halftime because MSUs 2nd string QB is running all over us. I don't know what to do. we know they are going to run it but I'm scared to shoot the LBs on a run blitz. We need to be conservative.
Meyer: I'll hold your hand Luke like I did last year.
Fickell: dammit! We can't stop the run and they will be in FG range soon.
Beck: we just got beat on a last second FG. But hey, I sucked at Nebraska so what do you expect. At least I can cash another big check Monday. Thanks Buckeye Nation!

As far as the game Saturday in AA, if the offense plays like this we get rolled by 14. If Beck is anywhere close to a headset, I fully expect that to happen.

Re: OHIO STATE@MICHIGAN====== YOUR THOUGHTS.
The biggest question is where are their heads collectively after Saturday? A bunch of stars with their minds on a big paycheck at the next level or a fired-up, pissed-off squad that wants to take it out on Michigan. Oh by the way, I'm over not calling them Michigan. Time to grow up.
