Game Thread Ohio State at Michigan State, 11/19/16, 12p ET ESPN/WatchESPN

Hmm maybe you should ask yourself how many times we lost games because we puckered up our assholes and played conservatively. There is ZERO repercussions by throwing up a prayer (seemed to work for PSU under Franklin) and letting Noah Brown go up and grab the ball.

Might want to ask Tulsa about being ultra aggressive late in the first half of a close game.....

It would be pretty cool if everyone tried a little harder to not bitch about play calling for the first series of the 2nd half. Just try to have a little more faith in our staff and if not all of them , at least Urban. I get that it can be frustrating but two straight pages of complaints after a 2 yd gain can get old fast.

The game threads used to be fuckin fun. So much fun that I'd follow and post even while watching games with my dudes. Last few years it's been kinda depressing

Are you arguing that it isn't grade school fundamentals that you don't retreat from the 8-10 yard line? *shrug*

rofl! please provide me the name of the grade school punt returner who can put those fundamentals into play when retreating from their 30 yrd line to inside their own 5 for a punt on the fly. that in and of itself isn't going to happen in high school but whatever. but just so we're talking apples to apples... then take that same kid and don't allow him to return a punt for 3 years in a game and put him in the same situation and see how things play out.

Jbook is getting to my point in his tweet....

MSU cannot stop on inside run. We are treating MSU d-line like they are Alabana in how we attack them. There is zero need to get cute when you can punch them in the mouth.

It'd be like Mije Tyson coming out to establish his jab when he can just mow the guy down in 25 seconds.

Just completely out thinking themselves and going away from what works...
