Allar is 6/17 and we're 0-7 on 3rd downs that's why we're losing--nothing else.
And we still have a great chance to win this.

lmao--you need your wife to explain the game to you. She understands how emotions blind you
I’m getting really tired of OSU holding our d-line with no calls. OSU learning they don’t have to play by the rules, as usual.
OSu had no chance to score. Even in best cases it takes about a minute against a prevent D
Better be aware the refs may make a bad call against OSU. That would suck, right.
I am optimistic. We are far from playing our best, yet only trailing by 4. I do think that they destroyed momentum after Singletary's 2 long runs.
Are we holding their DL? They've only called one offensive hold all game. There's always holding.
Just a 1 possession game @ the 1/2. This is winnable. Need to keep playing D & collect more big plays.
The level of competition isn't relevent....the rules are sorry bud. I get it you like the taste of referee boots but I'll continue to call it out when undeniable penalties are ignored for one side and not for the other.
There hasn't been a bad call yet so they're due to make one. Hopefully it would go against them
0-7
They are 3-8.
The only good news about that is if we adjust properly, we can win this game.
It isn't irrelevant. You're seeing what you want to see--it's okay. Your emotions are blinding you.
Hopefully there’s a sports psychologist in the locker room at half to calm Allar down. Just completely off target. Not settled. McCord is garbage, but Allar is better than this.
Honest question--if Allar is struggling with his limited experience why do people think Beau (which no meaningful playing time) is going to perform?
On the PI that erased the TD, should have been a hold on the OL, it was blatant and in space.
Great to be at 10-6. Got to stop them immediately coming out of halftime. And keep running the ball… problem is no downfield passing. Guys just can’t get open. But the Nits are where they want to be which is close at halftime. It’s a toss up right now.
Terrible half for the offense. Some really killer penalties on defense. Zero luck whatsoever. Drew looked awful. Yet, only down 10-6. Goes without saying, but the defense MUST get a stop to start the second half.
Vital experience for Allar though. I hated it that Northwestern only had 20,000 people. To quiet to help for these types of games. Need the hostile environment experience. Hopefully they can pull through this one.
Also, would like to see the tight ends used in the flats a bit more in the second half. Will be a challenge for the defense to hold up without Chop, have to hope KLS is ok.
That play could have worked if the WR’s ran pass routes. Neither did and Allar said as much on the sideline.
He said “they weren’t running an effing pass route”. Lip reading was easy on that one.
So the play call wasn’t horrible. The execution by the WR’s was appalling.
Yep he looks real nervous and off on many throws. The glimmer of hope is we are still in it with his lousy first half. Just not sure how much more our D can hold up.
It wasn't PI--it was a hold. And that still negates the TD but don't we all accept holding is almost never called on OL?
Pass rush. They are stunting pretty effectively on those with their LBs while the DL slants one direction.
Allar is a smidgen off. Throw was right at the break and behind Warren. Game of half seconds.
It was a 3rd Down - and McCord was about to get sacked when the Official threw the flag on contact that they ignored throughout the game when PSU receivers were ridden.... The Official knows that Defensive Holding is an automatic 1st Down - if you watch the replay, McCord is running for his life toward sideline and is obviously about to get sacked when the Official throws the flag. It was a complete 3rd Down freebie 1st Down bailout by the joke b1g clowns yet again. To claim that play was called consistently with how duhO$U's Defensive Secondary has been called is ridiculous - btw, the reason they took so long to make the call is that the loser official was trying to claim PI, which is impossible when the ball was never thrown. The Ref had to tell him he needed to change his bailout bullshit call to Defensive Holding.
