2024 Buckeye Football Thread

We needed that gift from their punter going in at half for not just the 7 pt edge but the momentum going into the locker room. They getting the ball at the start of second half after their coach gets them regrouped is going to be key how this game proceeds. If they can go down and get a TD to even it up it will come down to wire or who has possession at the end. If OSU stays with the blitz pkgs we can pull this out as long as we don’t turn the ball over anymore. Another TO we will lose in a close one.

Hell of a 2nd half start!

Has anyone noticed ANY emotion on Smith's face this year after a big play? I can't remember a single time he has had any emotion on his face. I see some body language, but dude has a poker face and then some. I've got to think it is part of what makes him great. Any big time player that can keep emotions in check will perform when the chips are down. This kid is the real deal.

Smith?

Yes. #4. Jeremiah Smith. Wrong name? I think I called him Jeremiah Johnson to my brother the day after watching part of Jeremiah Johnson the night before. Lol

And to be fair, I did see a little dissatisfaction on his face with his helmet off on one of the plays here in the 4th quarter.

I was hoping to see some back ups get some reps in the 4th quarter. I think the Buckeyes went into clock killing mode on their last drive. Felt like a soft defense on the scoring drive IU just put up. Even played soft on the 2pt conversion.

Looking forward to seeing the stats. I want to know where Igbinosun ranks compared to Indiana's other offensive players. He put up about 45 yards or so. I'm the bright side, it takes eyes off Burke.

Jeremiah has been very quiet today and didn’t get many touches per usual so that’s why I was asking. He’s a STUD and unbelievable talent.

Defense finally got out of the prevent defense and came with some stunts and blitz packages to turn the momentum and keep IU offense off the field. I was worried about the running backs IU have but the TO’s and punt return helped turn the tide. Kudos to defense and coaches for bringing the pressure. That last IU possession I hated seeing our D go back into prevent and give them easy 8 points though. Our corners are terrible. Just saying!

I knew we mustve played good because the haters in the group text finally STFU.

Any predictions for the game?

I think OSU dominates. Score could go either way. Like a two score win or a complete blow out. If they start blowing them out I don't think they let off the throttle. I can see them running up the score.

So no true prediction on the score, but I think Buckeyes control the game and stats will be heavily in their favor.

IO, OSU Has uch ore talent than ichigan and should win easily but this is The Gae and Ryan Days asshole will be so tight who knows how the tea will perfor. If we play sound football with no TO’s and penalties it shouldn’t be uch of a gae. 34-17

 

[giles]

We win.

 

[xbowguy]

43-10

 

[Jamie]

Buckeye's win 31-10

 

[5Cent]

49-14....Go Bucks!

Buckeyes bigly, Day and Kelly need to run up the score, and the Buckeyes defense needs to play angry.

Day should have a couple plays drawn up on big whiteboards for the end of the game: “This is what we are going to run:”

All my Michigan friends have been strangely silent this season.

When the cheating stopped, the winning stopped, if it is mentioned, it’s the Three D’s:
Deny
Deflect
Diminish



Why has the NCAA not dropped the hammer on the program? Makes no sense.
