How will the Bucks beat mich?

i can't wait to see the frosh get sacked by AJ on one side and Bobby on the other, make a shit sandwich! Sure the frosh has played good this year but he has only been on the road 4 times:

ND
Purdue
Indiana
Illinois

He has never seen a crowd like the one he will face on Saturday. 105K+ screaming fans in SCARLET will rattle his fucking skull.

I'm concerned about how we are going to cover Edwards...Tressel should have Ginn take a crack at it, right? Didn't freshman Charles Woodson effectively cover Terry Glenn back in '95? Trouble is, Ginn has played very little defense this year.

When you use the word crack, all that tells us is what you've been smoking. Ginn has no business on defense this late in the season, especially in The Game. Fox will do better against him than Gamble did last year. I think we put Fox up close on Edwards because Dustin has good recovery speed and can leap. Every team that jams Edwards at the line contains him fairly well.

From the BSB board. Patton speech:
The King Ad Buck

Oxford, OH
Post #851 The King is reminded of a speech... Reply

Now, The King wants you to remember that no Buckeye ever won The Game by fearing a Wolverine. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard fear The Buckeye. Men, all this stuff you’ve heard about Buckeyes not wanting to fight, wanting to stay out of The Game, is a lot of horse dung. Buckeyes traditionally love to fight. All real Buckeyes love the sting of battle.
When you were kids, you all admired Jesse Owens, the fastest runner, Chic Harley, the greatest football player. Buckeyes love a winner and will not tolerate a loser. Buckeyes play to win all the time. The King wouldn’t give a hoot in hell for any Buckeye who lost and laughed. That’s why The Buckeyes have never and will never fear Michigan. Because the very thought of losing is hateful to Buckeyes.

Now, The Bucks are a team. They live, eat, sleep, and fight as a team. This individuality stuff is a bunch of crap. The bilious bastards who wrote that stuff about individuality for the Detroit Free Press don’t know anything more about The Game than they do about fornicating.

We have the finest stadium, The Best Damn Band In The Land, the best spirit and the best men in the world. You know, by God The King actually pities those poor bastards we’re going up against. By God, he does. We’re not just going to beat the bastards, we’re going to cut out their living rodent guts and use them to grease the treads of our cleats. We’re going to murder those lousy Wolverine bastards by the bushel.

Now, some of you boys, I know, are wondering whether or not you'll chicken out in The Game. Don't worry about it. The King can assure you that you will all do your duty. The Wolverines are the enemy. Wade into them. Spill their blood. Hit them in the belly. When you put your body in the way of an ugly helmet, that a few years ago was a high school player from Ohio, you'll know what to do.

Now there’s another thing The King wants you to remember. The King doesn’t want to get any messages saying that The Bucks are holding their position. The Bucks are not holding anything. Let Lloyd do that. We are advancing constantly and we’re not interested in holding onto anything except those Wolverines. We're going to hold onto those rodents by the nose and we're going to kick them in the ass. We're going to kick the hell out of those skunks all the time and we're gonna go through them like crap through a goose.

There’s one thing that you men will be able to say when you get back home. And you may thank Woody for it. Thirty years from now when you’re sitting around The Horseshoe with your grandson on your knee and he asks you what did you do in The Greatest Rivalry in Sports, you won’t have to say, "Well, I shoveled shit in Michigan."

Alright now, you sons-of-bitches, you know how The King feels. Oh, and The King will be proud to lead you wonderful Buckeyes into battle – anytime, anywhere.

That’s all. [/QUOTE]

THE CROWD wins the game Make sure everyone you tailgate with and everyone you talk to before the game Saturday knows that they have to be loud. Make sure your section is loud. Get the people in your section to get on their feet. People are louder on their feet. Don't just be loud yourself...but do everything you can do get those around you loud too.

They need to get some turnovers, instead of losing the turnover margin. This is important because scUM thrives off of turnovers and our offense needs as much chances as it can get. They must be aggressive on defense, instead of letting Henne pick them apart. OSU needs to get it started early and not let up, or the resilient side up north will take control and make it hard to catch up.

Pittman has to get involved in the offense on some screens and tosses. Some play action passes, with an occasional deep ball may render this stagnant offense. Run a couple reverses with Ginn, maybe even a Ginn toss to TS. The big problem will be scUMs balanced attack on offense, IMO. If they contain Henne to Braylon, and get square hits Hart they WIN!

Turnovers are always key...especially in close games like this one will likely be. It would be nice to not only have some turnovers, but be able to return them for a touchdown. The only thing is, this keeps the defense out on the field...and if we are going 3 and out...the defense is going to get mighty tired. We need first downs to keep our defense off the field. TOP is huge too. It hurt us last year.

Point taken.

I'd be happy if the defensive line would step it up and get some consistent pressure on Henne and then let the LB's roam free to clean up.

Then oh how wonderful it would be if the offensive line would finally compete aggressively as one unit and gets some push on the LOS; sustain blocks and pick up the stunts. If Troy has just a second or two more to see the field, its a different ballgame.

If those things happen, then I know the OSU fans will see a team that has started to break through and they will have a chance to beat a good opponent and then have something to build on. It will be something truly special.
GO BUCKEYES !!!

"....I want to be drunk off my ass with a F Michigan shirt on.....I want people to ask what the fuck is a hoosier....I want to yell Ann Arbor is a WHORE...and i want a fellow buckeye to give me a I-O for my O-H...I want to walk into Ohio Stadium see the grass for the first time feel like Rudy's dad and mumble to myself This is the most beautiful site these tired old eyes have ever seen..."

I don't feel like Rudy's dad. He tried to feel like me...but didn't come close.

And I will tear up before the game because The Shoe on the 3rd Saturday on November during an even year is the most beautiful thing to ever grace this world.
