Ohio State - Purdue game thread

Purdue flying to the ball tonight. PSU looks in slow motion in comparison to this team.

Meyer and staff should be fired after this game they don’t rally. With that talent difference there is no excuse.
 
Although thrilled O$U is losing, this game just cements my ongoing feeling that we pissed away a huge opportunity to make the CFP. The league just isn’t great this year. It was there for the taking with better in-game coaching over the last month.
 
OSU caught looking ahead to the bye week? Game isn't over but even a FG by Purdue will be huge at this point.

EDIT: OK. Screw the FG. Get the TD instead!!

Yeah because we were 1-0 in Conference when we lost....so close.

To counter this, we just aren’t a very good team this year. It kinda sucks, the big ten is definitely down this year, and I’ve expected OSU to lose at least one game.

With last years team in this years big ten, I think we absolutely make the playoff :(

I expected more I guess with a third year starting QB and a “strong OL.” Franklin really oversold that. I do not believe we are a “bad” defense, just really young at key positions.
 
Hmm what would have Rahne called on that play?
That play call by Purdue according to this board was bad....run up the middle at that point would have been trashed by many posters (unless it worked).

Stupid straw man argument. That staff beat psu staff twice. So they got that goin for them. Purdue staff out

Bullshit. How many times has Purdue ran that tonight? It’s about tendency and Rahne and Pry are as predictable as the sun coming up in the morning

Right. Purdue is 3-3....maybe they need to look at their tendencies.

I’m a big optimist, coming into the year, I didn’t think we’d miss a beat on defense even though we lost all 4 secondary starters to go with Bowen, Cabinda, cothren, cothran. I thought we’d be fine with givens and Windsor playing a ton of football over their careers, then TCF, Reid, AO at corner. I thought safety we would be just OK. The defense hasn’t lived up to expectations.

The receivers not being able to catch is mind boggling. But the o line definitely hasn’t lived up to my expectations. There is a lot of experienced, highly rated kids there. They just don’t seem like they’ve made much progress from last year to this year
 
Haskins just isn’t that good. A big part of why OSU beat us because we couldn’t defend screens and didn’t tackle.


Well, he’d probably be starting for just about every team in the country but maybe 2-3.
