Game Thread Ohio State at Oklahoma, 09/17/16 @ 9:00pm ET, FOX

Hats off to Tim Beck & Ed Warriner.

Those guys took a ton of heat last year for their play calling issues. They absolutely killed it last night. In my opinion they shut it down early, but I'm sure it was something Urban and then discussed at halftime. They gave multiple looks at different playmakers. It wasn't just a speed option or draw game - every single playmaker got in on something and kept the D confused.

Ohio State is quickly becoming WR U. I hope to hell we can keep Zach Smith another year.
Couple of things that I would have liked to have seen last night was less of the called runs for JT, especially when we have great talent in the backfield. I hate seeing JT take hits that could be avoided. The other thing last night that was a little odd, was either the lateness of getting the play call in or the formation and motion that cost us some timeouts and delay of games. Maybe this was just part of the youth of the team.

That's just one computer's opinion.

I personally gave OU exactly 0.0% chance to beat Ohio State.
Oh.. the moron officials gave them a 1.2% chance. I know that's hard to calculate. Luckily Mr Brown doesn't mind being interfered with. I think they called what, 1 holding call? (And it was on us, and a no brainer.. but that was the standard, you had to get beat then tackle the guy from behind.). Obviously as a fan you notice more stuff they miss that would be in your favor but, man they were terrible. I had an Illinois flashback on the kick return.

I really hope that the BIG sanctions this crew just like the B12 did with the crew that f'd up the Okie St. game. There is no excuse for missing that review, let alone the facemasks and blatant holding that was occurring.....
Interestingly, I did read their scout game thread. They were all bitching about the holding not being called too... That said, it was really bad and the officials did absoutely zero to bring it in line.
