Please tell me one. I would like to know of one coach that lost to the #4 team the country that would be fired.
Show me a good loser and I'll show you a loser. No way we should have lost that game.

Farmer and Reid absolutely suck. No debate on that point. Johnson actually played well during the first halfNot when Jan Johnson is a starting LB. or Farmer. Or Windsor at DT.

It wasn’t Pry’s fault and if you think it is, then you’re and asshole.Quit hugging prys nuts. You his brother in law?
I agree it was a bad call and I would’ve thrown to the tight end, but we were only in this position because of the drops in key situations earlier in the game. God, if you told me we had 500 total yards of offense and held Ohio state under 30 points, I would expect a two touchdown victory.
I'm sticking with my 9-3 forecast. The defense fed off the crowd and played much better than expected for 3 quarters but they reverted back in the 4th qtr.If we win out there is still a chance.... I hope
I certainly wouldn’t call them “awful,” but they were clearly not the same team in the passing game after Hamler was injured.Where is justin shorter? Awful receiving crew without hamler.
If Stevens would have caught the ball, it wouldn’t have been as bad. God damn kids don’t execute, but it’s the coaches’ fault.The last offensive play call was the worst I’ve ever seen. But stil not bad enough to make me forget the bullshit play call to Tommy Stevens in the first quarter when we had first down at the OSU 17. That deserves its own spot in the moronic playcall hall of fame. And constantly getting caught in blitzes on screen passes is hardly “a pretty good job of getting kids in position to make plays” — unless you mean the Ohio State kids.
I agree. This team is not good enough to beat Michigan on the road, and we'll lose one more that is unexpected. Life goes on.I'm sticking with my 9-3 forecast. The defense fed off the crowd and played much better than expected for 3 quarters but they reverted back in the 4th qtr.
I didn't expect to win this game but it hurts when you seem to have it in hand and let it slip away. Again!
My 3 biggest plays that resulted in the loss are:
The fumble by Sanders.
The refs stopping play to prevent a quick count play by PSU for a potential 1st down, thereby allowing OSU to substitute on D.
The biggest bonehead play call on 4th and 5 at the end of the game. Did someone on the coaching staff have money riding on OSU to win?
You obviously got my sarcasm.I know you're being humorous with your last point about someone on the coaching staff having money on OSU but I jokingly thought the same thing. The call defies any logical explanation so you have to break out the tin foil hat stuff.
PSU has their chances. Tip the cap and go win out.
Pass to #87. End of story. He had the entire right side of the field open to him, most likely in one on one coverage. Running the RPO in that situation, and especially giving it to Sanders, got exactly what it deserved. A dumbass play call that will go down in history.I’m going to stand up for the play call here.
Rewatch it in slow motion, if 71 blocks #2, Sanders walks to the end zone. 7 of Ohio States players were on the left side of the line. Trace ran the RPO and made the right call, if he holds it, he has no time to pass or run. Ohio States stunt with #2 could not have been executed any more perfectly.
They outsmarted themselves running at all. You pass and let Trace scramble if he has no other choice.I think the coaches outsmarted themselves thinking OSU would target Trace. Still no excuses for that. You live and die with Trace
Yup. And keep it going. A lot of teams would kill to lose to OSU in front of 110,000 for their first loss of the year.
Couple plays each way turned this game. PSU came up short. Win out and see what happens. Defense was light and day better.Yup. And keep it going. A lot of teams would kill to lose to OSU in front of 110,000 for their first loss of the year.
If Stevens would have caught the ball, it wouldn’t have been as bad. God damn kids don’t execute, but it’s the coaches’ fault.
Drops are a joke regardless of circus catches.As a unit the WRs have been a disappointment. Had really hoped Shorter could make an impact but no such luck. Just no difference makers other than Hamler.

No doubt. If anything the writing is on the wallYup. And keep it going. A lot of teams would kill to lose to OSU in front of 110,000 for their first loss of the year.
As another poster hinted, you must be related to one of the coaches if you’re defending that play call. OSU absolutely could not stop us on that first drive, so we stopped ourselves. That play was negative from the word go. Featuring a guy repeatedly who hadn’t played a down all year really worked well, I guess?If Stevens would have caught the ball, it wouldn’t have been as bad. God damn kids don’t execute, but it’s the coaches’ fault.
I would like to hear which PSU fans thought we would go undefeated. I know I didn’t.Couple plays each way turned this game. PSU came up short. Win out and see what happens. Defense was light and day better.

If he caught it, he had a receiver wide open for a TD. But yeah, that’s all on the coaches.As another poster hinted, you must be related to one of the coaches if you’re defending that play call.

I live 2 miles from one. Right on the way ...
There might even be a Starbucks if you want to appease Bob.
Polk’s drop, Johnson’s drop, Reid missed tackle on the TD, TCF’s missed tackle which led to a TD, a missed FG, a RB tripping over his feet instead of getting a first down and so forth and so on. None of that was the coaching staff. The staff made a terrible play call on 4th and 5. Other than that they did a pretty good job of getting kids in position to make plays. They didn’t.

I said at least 5 times on here that if Farmer is still starting by this game we were in trouble. Bottom line. Defense folded again in the 4th. F the upperclassmen. Time to play the youth.Farmer and Reid absolutely suck. No debate on that point. Johnson actually played well during the first half
