At least we scored unlike the last big game we played.

Thats not exactly a glowing review. Especially since it wasn't like the offense looked all that much better. Still plain, vanilla JT runs, he ran more than both RBs combined(sound familiar) and couldn't hit an open WR all night. Our ST scored, the offense was one JK dive from being shut out. It looked like 2016 all over again

He hit one on a long pass in the end zone and the receiver failed to catch it, but I get your point. It will look even worse when the Sooners are playing shootouts in the Big XII.

At this point, it's one of two people, or maybe both:

Urban Meyer
JT Barrett

I think Barrett is obviously limiting this team, but I'm not confident throwing a new QB in would help to make this championship level team. Now is tge time to try though.

I think the coaching staff has two choices. The first is to come to terms with JTs limitations and adjust the play calling accordingly. Scale back his read and make more of an effort to get the ball into playmakers hands. The second is to change QBs which will automatically scale back reads for the QB and they will have to create plays in screens, jet sweeps, slants, quick passes, etc to get the ball into playmakers hands. In the end it will be the same solution, removing JTs biggest weakness in reading the defense and making adjustments in his passes. If we change QBs, how much does losing JTs running ability hurt the offense?

It won't because we would actually give the ball to Dobbins then who's much better running the ball anyways

This is the definition of the offense the past 2 years. We've changed OCs and QB coaches and the results have been the same. Wilson was a supposed offensive genius, and it looks now that his 2-3stars at IU were better than his current OSU personnel.

I just have to say that I take back everything I ever said about Tim Beck.

Kevin Wilson, the orchestrater of the greatest college football offense of all time, the 2008 Oklahoma Sooners, and who worked miracles while he was coaching at Indiana, producing in addition to a 2,000 yard running back, a season with a 3500 yard QB, a 1000 yard receiver and TWO 1000 yard RBs, only the fourth such instance in college football history, was brought in to fix the offense that Tim Beck had supposedly broken.

What did we see last night? THE SAME BROKEN OFFENSE! The Urban Meyer offense. Not the Tim Beck offense. Not the Kevin Wilson offense. The Urban Meyer offense.

Until coach Meyer relinquishes his stranglehold on the offense, the Buckeyes WILL continue to struggle against lesser opponents and piss down their legs when they face real competition.

Last year in Norman shocked everyone. Why? Because it was a total fluke. Last night we witnessed the real Buckeye offense, just like we saw on December 31 against Clemson.

Dabo Swimney openly scoffed at our offense. He called it a joke. He was right.
