The only reason I disagree, is I see Pryor getting limited playing time (if any)
I'd like to see Guiton run the offense just as it would be run under Pryor, if Pryor is out. It would similar to what Michigan did to them this past weekend...IU got some stops but also gave up a lot of big plays.

I have no doubts that regardless of who is at the QB position we will score. I just don't think it will be as fast as if Pryor was QB. I have a feeling Indiana will be able to score against our defense, thus preventing the blowout part. I don't consider a 14-21 point victory a blowout.

I'm just happy that no one seems to be freaking out. There are a lot of really good teams in the country and every single one of them struggles at times. Every National Champion since I can remember struggled in games that they should have dominated. One game does not change how great that we all know this team can be.

The only ones that should be freaking out about it are the media (especially ESPN) because it is their job to over-analyze everything.

And that wind was brutal. We beat the shit out of Miami for goodness sakes.... Glad we got the win and I think we have a dominating performance this week. Go Bucks.


Edit: And the last thing that I want to say is that it is clear how much better this team is than last year (even by the end of the year), and that team won a Rose Bowl....

What was cool to see about KG (during spring game, i know), was that hes not afraid to throw the bomb. If the WR's got a 1v1, he's getting the rock thrown his way. The vertical passing game, would then help the running, and short passing games.

1995 Nebraska laid waste to everyone who had the misfortune of getting in their way. Not sure how old you are but that doesn't seem like such a long time ago to me.:(

They did have one relatively close game, beating Washington State 35-21 at home.

No recollection of how the scoring went down in that one, I just recall a general sense that they never had a game that was in much doubt.

We know the NC game was a brutal ass raping don't we Gator? :tongue2:

As they say once is a mistake, twice is a habit.

My, how quickly people forget the previous four (five including Oregon) games. This is the first time all season that the team has undershot expectations. I'm going to give them a chance to right their wrongs. If this was their potential, I'd be much more worried. If I see a game like this against Indiana, barring an unforseen injury or something, then I'll be genuinely worried.

Just based on the talent and the leadership that this team exhibits, ya gotta give them at least this week to prove that last week was indeed a fluke. Getting all in a tizzy over this one game can't be good for our collective health :biggrin:

I have seen, and been involved in most of, the real tizzy's on this board over the offense. I'd say we are currently at defcon 3 out of 10 on the Tizzy meter. I consider defcon 2 the off season so no need to worry about the collective health just yet.

:wink2:

hahaha defcon 1 is impossible and rightly so because I think the only time we may have been at defcon 1 on the tizzy meter was during the 2006 season and we know what happened then.....

OSU fans are too anal to ever feel relaxed again after that debacle..

I'm looking back at that year right now and we have been putting up a lot more points so far this year than we were that year. Ha and we only beat Illinois 17-10 at Illinois in 06...

I thought defcon-1 was "happy as a clam" and that defcon 10 was "spit spraying the monitor demanding the OC's resignation that night"?

Defcon 1 is like Charlie Weis's dick. Theory says it exists but no one has ever seen it, nor do I think I want to.

Spit spraying the monitor and demanding OC resignations is about a Defcon 5. We go defcon 5 over spring games.

You've never seen defcon 10 amongst Buckeye fans because scUM hasn't won The Game since the macarena was still cool.
