Game Thread BCS National Championship Game: tOSU 24, LSU 38 (final)

Quick synopsis of what I saw and feel.

We played much more aggressive tonight, but got out-coached. Not in a sense that Heacock deserves ridicule, but in a sense that LSU deserves a ton of credit.

Our coaching staff should have recognIzed that Florida would play dirty last year. Urban meyer rarely ever lines up straight. They hardly ever lined up straight, and completely kept us off balance with weird formations and a philosophy that treated every 5-6 yard gain as if it were a very significant win. Those 5-6 yard wins ended up in domination of our big play defense.

This year we were again fought dirty. We decided to be more agressive after the embarrassment we saw last year. Only problem is, the LSU coaching staff recognized where we lacked last year, recognized we would try and NOT repeat the same mistakes twice, and dominated us.

LSU KILLED US WITH MISDIRECTION!!!! Plain and simple. We did not lose because we lack the athletes. We certainly do not, and will own the most NFL players single handedly after the draft this April. We got beat by a great gameplan that took advantage of our aggressiveness.

I could say a lot more, and break the game down a ton more but I doubt it makes any differnce.

This loss hurts, and I won't want tp hear any type of media until the USC game next year.

Congrats to LSU for an excellent gameplan, and the execution of that gameplan.

Good luck to James, Malcolm, and Vernon as they proceed to the next phase of their lives. I'm sure they wish the left with a "W" instead of a National Championship "L".

You guys have a damn strong football team that scared the hell out of us in South LA. It was a hard fought game and the way I look at it, to continue to be in "the game" almost year after year speaks volumes. You guys are classy and I'm glad to have spent some time here.

Congratulations on the win.

Now that I am calm....

I remember a first year starter at quarterback that was once booed out of the Horseshoe after a game vs Indiana. People said he had happy feet and stared down recievers and that he was easily rattled. He lead a 4th quarter game winning drive in the Rose Bowl that is still talked about with reverence and followed that up with one of the best season by a quarterback ever at OSU.
We need Pryor... thats all im saying. Plus, I REALLY dont want to play against him if he goes to *ichigan.

Grad, correct me if I'm wrong here, but this is a classic example of a "tackle eligible" play but with a TE playing the position, aka an eligible player, so he doesn't need to report as eligible. Therefore, as long as he lines up in the proper position and the team has the minimum players on the line of scrimmage, it is legal and he is a eligible reciever by defaut.

If this post seemed out of place, it's because it was in a separate thread that I moved here. The other thread was about LSU's 1st TD, and yes it was a tackle eligible play.

Very astute observation that they used a player with a number in the 80s who thus did not have to report as eligible. That may be why he got lost. Good move by The Hat.

I agree with the guy above.. seemed like Heacock was gonna go down blitzing tonight, but sadly Crowton turned that agressiveness against him..

Just not enough adjustments until it's too late.. u just watch our guys and they look confused out there with all the personell packages LSU was throwing out

Next year should be fun...let's hope this gives Vern, Michael, and James all the more motivation to come back and really get the job done in 08



Great season, far exceeded most expectations...the fact that we can still be dissapointed in something like this says alot about the program and where we've come, and where we're going

OK. - Anyone want my plates? I'm fucking done!! I have had enough!! I am a 1987 grad of OSU and I will no longer watch them -- ever. John Cooper can kiss my ass!! He lost to the "great" SEC 6 fucking times!! And he if he hadn't lost that many times maybe i could take this loss but sorry - I've had enough fucking losses to meatchicken and the SEC in bowl games. With the talent we had we should have won 3 NCG's under Cooper's dumb ass. And the really sad thing is i just bought a 37" HD TV to take to the games next year - look for my tix for sale!!

Don't scrape your knees jumping off the band wagon......:(

... What the hell? You just posted the most pathetic thing I have read on these forums. You're a grad? You have plates? and you're giving up based on one game? Good fucking riddance, do me a favor, don't watch sports anymore. You aren't on the team, you can't control the other team, the outcome is based on the field, but you're jumping ship on a coach who has lost three games in the last two years? Wow...
