Football Ohio State defeats Penn State, 20-13
- Thread starter Dylan Callaghan-Croley

It was a pretty perfect throw. You trust your WR to catch the ball.
And he can’t get open today either…tough to get open when defenders are grabbing and holding you.
The OSU kid made a helluva catch on 4th down. Wallace dropped 1 and muffled another. Combine that with great play by OSU db= big play.
We are lucky to be in this.

How much luck should a team expect?
A freebie TD on the pick six.
A sure OSU TD fumbled through the end zone.
Buckeyes have outplayed Nits by way more than four points.
Disagree on this one. Wallace caused the int. At the very least he has to fight for the ball and it be incmplete.
You realize when a ball hits a WR in the chest that pick isn't on the QB, right?
Drops happen--he has two of them today that have hurt us almost as us wasting 5 plays so far with Beau in the game
Is Tyseer Denmark really that bad that he can’t get any action?
Anyone that doesn't know that was a perfect throw shouldn't be watching this sport
Much like every 1st half this year.
The difference? We didn't soften them up with gut punches.
PSU had a stupid taunting play that ended up in 7 for OSU.
A missed opp at 7 at the end.
Crazy mistakes have happened both ways. Time for PSU to win the 2nd half and the game.
Allar isn't Hack
Allar is an elite college QB. Watch Georgia and Texas when they played each other with their elite QBs
We haven't had an elite QB since Collins and people here don't comprehend what one looks like
Big time players make big time plays. We don't have those.
An all world TE who has one target? A RB Singleton who in space is effective and can't create outside runs for him. Not getting Allar in rhythm at all early with a short pass game. Ultimately, I agree with you, but this is not been a great performance by andy so far
Pretty blah 1at half for Allar. Made some bad decisions … whether to throw it when you had an obvious running lane, to throwing it to guys who weren’t open or even ready. Better than I expected with the knee, but still room for improvement in the 2nd half. Let’s see him settle in for this 2nd half and take over.
This offense is out of whack today!
Allar has 62 yards passing with an INT
Our leading rusher is the QB followed by the TE
Our leading receiver is the RB
AK's head must have been spinning up in that booth in the first half.

The INT wasn't on Allar though--let's be clear about that
PSU routinely plays man coverage on WRs and tries to get to the QB. There's not much focus on keeping the play in front of us. The problem is OSU probably has the best pass catchers in the country. Trying to stop them man with only 1 safety is a big ask. It's what we do but it's a bad plan vs OSU IMO.
The only play we have on offense is Allar running and I totally expect OSU to stop that in the second half. They've had a guy spying on Warren all game but still can't get anybody else open.
We’ve had the same mediocre WRs I feel like the last 3 years. Incredible we can’t do better than Evans, Wallace, Clifford. Denmark was supposed to be a big flip from Oregon. Questionable he cant start over these 3
At least someone has some optimism. They have been a second half team but its going to take some drastic halftime changes.
I get that. Not trying to place blame. Just saying the stats are skewed in a weird way today.
Correct--last week we were using at the half but we were clearly the better team
Today...
The difference in this game is pass defense. None of our guys are running free down field. That's a disciplined defense.
The only way OSU loses is if their QB has more brain farts and/or Ryan Day clams up trying to protect a lead. If he throws it downfield and spread's out our defense, maybe with some mis-direction, we are toast. We would have to get lucky.
OSU gets the ball at the start of the 3rd quarter. Like the last come-back win, someone in the defensive backfield will have to make a big play, or maybe a DL rusher forces a fumble. Something like that if we are to have a chance.
