Ohio State - Purdue game thread

[Relayer]

Haskins threw the ball 73 times! Can your arm hold up throwing that much?

That's nothing. Cy Young threw 749 complete games.

 

[KnightWhoSaysNit]

Don’t worry OSU fans. Coach Irvin is gonna delete this entire game from his phone *

Coach who?

 

[TrevYoung]

Did Purdue just score on the play Rahne called?

Yah, I had flashbacks to the last play against OSU.

 

[PSU95alum]

Hitting the bourbon again?

Haha. One night only this week

 

[fairgambit]

Lol. Yeah Purdue didn’t own them tonight. Keep yappin AWS. Again psu predictable. Purdue taking risks to win. If you haven’t figured it out by now it’s about playcalls tondictae game flow not playbcalls because your scared

This Purdue team apparently failed to "take risks to win" in back to back last second losses to Eastern Michigan and Missouri.

Rondel Moore, Purdue

Most exciting player to watch in college football.

Did they say he squats 600 lbs??

Hamler speed with some serious strength.

 

[The Song Remains the Same]

Coach who?

 

[Indian rocks rich]

Yea psu lost by 1 point and 4 pts.. Bucknutz just got their asses kicked by 29pts All the complainers on this board should think about that. Long season IOWA IOWA IOWA

 

[psu00]

Congrats to Purdue on a great win tonight. Most complete game I’ve seen them play ever. They were aggressive to the very end.

 

[massimoManca II]

Herbie; Why so glum?

somber as if someone just ran over his cat

Live from West Lafayette...

Lose by 1 or 3 or 29, it still counts as one loss.

 

[ShinerTexas]

Herbie; Why so glum?

Like he said OSU has more issues than one upset loss

 

[Chickenman Testa]

I enjoyed the Buckeye receiver shush the crowd down 3 scores. Of course no penalty

 

[PSU95alum]

Hitting the bourbon again?

Haha. No. Me and my boys call him Coach Irvin because of that Congresswoman from FL that “recognized” him on the floor for her few minutes.

 

[81b&w]

That win was a thing of beauty!

 

[sarasotan]

That was so much fun to see.

 

[ILLINOISLION]

Guessing No Pillow Talk With Mrs Urby Tonight!

“Not tonight sweetie, I have a headache!”

She never tells him anything.

 

[AtlantaLion]

“Not tonight sweetie, I have a headache!”

That's alright, he'd forget about it anyway.

 

[Chris92]

But, but who's going to be that player to talk to the team after the loss?

 

[ras5051]

Hire Rondale Moore.

247 composite receivers last year:
1. Justin shorter
2. Amon-ra st brown (prolly fresh AA receiver at USC)
36. Jahan Dotson
41. Rondale moore (nothing needs to be said here..)
46. Daniel George

Give the kids a chance. The vets suck

Not the same in voters and computer rankings, i disagree.

 

[81b&w]

Has Urban lost his team?

 

[Relayer]

Last week's loss hurt. Beat Michigan, UM beats OSU and PSU goes to the CFP. Sure it's a hypothetical, but what could have been. I'm an optimist.

 

[ShinerTexas]

Ohio St 76 yds rushing vs 73 pass attempts. Wow. Big ten football? No 2 team?

 

[BobPSU92]

[BobPSU92]

Tosu is not elite.

 

[Nbergbuck]

Like he said OSU has more issues than one upset loss

The game showed how motivation can trump talent in football. Not sure how much the loss of Bosa and the scandal affected things. I do think Urbie's best coaching performances are behind him. The O line is awful as is run defense. Way overrated at #2. OSU will now be rated more accurately.

 

[58psu77]

Indeed. They must have learned a lesson after back to back last second losses to Eastern Michigan and Missouri.

According to their head coach, they did indeed learn from the way those games ended and he made choice going forward to play to win, not to keep from losing.

Not really in the polls

They haven't lost since their back to back last second losses. Neither have we.

He’s getting beat so bad his wife isn’t gonna tell him about it

Needs to be a poll.

 

[djr4rebs]

the loss of Bosa

Imagine how the DL felt when they learned that their teammate was completely stepping away. Focus on recovery and draft training my ass. He's tired of playing school. Now some agent (or his brother) will front him the money to heal and eventually start training for the combine.

That affects morale. It showed tonight.

 

[SUPERTODD]

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

What worries me most is the staff’s handling of the OL. Offensive lineman HAVE to have a nasty streak. Much more so than defensive lineman. Moving Thorpe makes no sense to me. It’s great to have highly rated athletes on your OL, but you can see it with us and O$U that the nasty streak is the one essential we both lack.

It makes no sense? There is no depth on DT. Whom do you suggest should have been moved to DT? Menet? Jenkins? Nah, maybe Givens and Windsor should play every down.

What the hell, let's try Jenkins

 

[BostonNit]

Purdue running the score up on OSU. Up Purdue running the score up on OSU. Up 2 scores and still throwing the ball

That’s how you close a game. We would have run up the middle and punted back

They actually ran a similar trap play in the 4th qtr as our 4th and 5 play against OSU. They held the block and scored. We did not.

Put the guys there you recruited as DTs. Mustipher and Jordan. Four players should be enough to rotate. Not a guy who has never played there since HS.
