This game is pissing me off. I will give credit where it is due. Wisconsin is looking tough. Buckeyes D hasn't shown up yet. Can't give up big plays like they have. Offense has had moments of solid drives then let them fizzle out. Play calling has been weak. We are about to find out if the Buckeyes have any grit in the second half. True test for the young team if they come back out and win. They most certainly "can" win this game. They need to adjust and execute in order to do so.

I don't know. Could go either way. I'm a bit surprised Urban kicked the field goal for a tie. We'll see.
Text my brother at the half. I said "Let the D do their thing. Keep ramming the ball down their throats. Win by 3." They have chosen to pass and run. It has worked. Now we need to see if the D can stop them.

I recorded it, but am happy with the win. Any win by any team in Camp Randle at night is a good win. Tough place to play and a good ball team.

I keep forgetting how young we are! So many players with NO college football experience until this seasons start. It will be remarkable if we make the playoffs this year with such a young team! Can you just imagine how these talented players will be in another year or two?
I take NOTHING away from Wisconsin. They came to play for real. Great Game For Sure!
I have to agree Ron. Experience will only help this team!
I called the final play. I said I hope this game ends on a sack... would only make it perfect. And it did!

You're exactly right Ron. I kept getting frustrated last night, but let telling myself, oh yeah, we're the youngest team in college football. If we make the playoff it'll be something.
Last nights game added more gray to my hair than I would like! Ugh!!!
JT and his coaches better work on his throwing(touch and accuracy) and our WR/TE's and their coaches better work on their route running and catching from here on out! Saw way to many dropped balls and JT needs more confidence and that only comes with everybody working together and being insync and last nights first half was the exact opposite!
Where was Rayquan McMillen last night???? Defense stepped it up in the second half but gave up almost 300 yards in the first! WOW!!!
Yes, they're young and a talented group but let's hope this game gave them something to grow on and learn from!
You can only run the zone read option so many times a game! Let's give the Defenses we face some threats downfield otherwise future star WR's won't even give this team any consideration for their recruitment in the future! Great teams have a balanced attack and run and throw the ball 50/50. Last night we tried to run wide and between the tackles off the zone read options and they stopped us! When JT was forced to throw the added pressure of the defense pinning their ears back and sending more than we had to block and he having less time to throw completely shook his confidence after a few 3 and outs.
Like I said, the first half was very hard to watch! Lol
Kudos to Wisky and their coaches!!! They came to play!!!

I don't really have a choice...putting them on Craigslist a couple years ago didn't work out all that great. Lol
