Tyler Everett was terrific , today! Best game ever for him. Want to see just as good next week. Whole defense was terrific. Came to play. :biggrin: AY was terrific , also.

Offensive line got great push. Pittman is a stud. Smith controlled things. Interception was poor. Got greedy. Ginn was wide open on play.

The whole secondary played awesome today. I was at the Indiana game, and while we held there passing game in check, there were some recievers open. This game, I saw great coverage all game, even by the backups. Having Everett back really helps with his experience. Some NFL team is going to be lucky when they snag him in the draft.

It was funny, on Smiths INT, some people around me were saying throw it, Holmes is wide open. I guess they didn't see the DB there either :tongue2:

There also seemed be be a lot of dropped balls by the recievers today. At least 3 or 4. I'm also suprised they didn't throw the deep fly route that we have been throwing the last few games. Northwestern's dbs were lining up tight, and we had many 1 on 1 opportunities. We could have really opened up the short and intermediate passing game with a few deep tries IMO. Maybe they were saving those for the scUM game.

Pittman is a beast, and Wells showed some nice things today. Hard to judge Haw from where I was in the stands, so I'm gonna have to watch the tape. Was nice to see him get out in space and use that speed we have heard so much about tho.

I think we only got the O-H-I-O cheer going around the stadium once...
It was great seeing Hawk get a TD in his final game in the Shoe
Dukes will become one of our best recievers once he gets a chance
It was nice seeing us ram the ball down a teams throat the entire game.
:osu: beat scUM

My little brother goes to Arch Bishop Hoban (the school Tyrell Sutton graduated from last year).

He came down to watch the game at the 'Shoe with me to watch Sutton play. He even brought a sign. OSU is one of the 3 teams he hates the most - did I mention he's my half brother...?

Anyway, he said that the the first 10 minutes were fun to watch, and the rest was awful. Just thought I'd share a perspective from a NU fan.

God I loved every second of this.

BTW - it was great watching Sutton get planted into the ground. That's why we didn't offer you - so stop being a little bitch.

Those are awesome numbers, Mili. Hopefully it continues next year....

I'm also suprised they didn't throw the deep fly route that we have been throwing the last few games. Northwestern's dbs were lining up tight, and we had many 1 on 1 opportunities.

They were also lining up safeties on the slot receiver. Any one of our 3 WRs could burn any safety, so I was surprised they didn't try this. I guess it's just the fact that OSU never needed to throw deep today. No reason to open up the running game anymore, it was wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide open all day long :biggrin:

Yeah... but it always seems to be a different game when we play them. I feel we'll win, but I won't feel at ease until we beat them next week.

I know what you mean, but normally its all about shutting down scUMs great offense, and they have fallen off this year. However, like they say, when these two teams meet, throw out all the past scores and records, because they dont mean a damn thing.
