Game Thread Ohio State vs Maryland, 10/07/17 @ 4:00 ET (FOX)

Well I got sick... a lot.... but I remember most of the game so here's my thoughts.

1. It's really too bad we didn't get the shutout. We dominated today and our defense deserved the shutout.

Even minus Ward we embarrassed them.

2. Ward destroyed his man and it clearly wasn't a penalty.

Oh and hahahaha you got destroyed #1

3. JT was money even with them mixing coverages. He threw into tight windows all day and he threw deep a ton. He didn't complete any long bombs but everytime he went deep he got a PI call which lead to points.

4. Running game was good but I think we can run the ball better and more frequent. We treated this game like our garbage games.

5. I feel so bad for Bowen.. it sucks that he got hurt but we have been really fortunate with injuries for a while now.

6. How about Sheffield? That long bomb would have resulted in a interference a few weeks ago so he's obviously grown!

7. Special teams are garbage. If we can't cover the kickoffs then kick it out of the end zone.

If we can't kick it through the end zone then get someone who can.

Overall this was a step in the right direction and we absolutely destroyed a team that gave others a hard time. I actually feel shitty that this wasn't a shut out because it really should have been.

JT was awesome and if it wasn't for massive "special" teams fuck ups this game is the shutout our defense deserved.

We are going to gouge Nebraska just like we did Maryland.. this soulless runaway freight train is just picking up steam.

However if we don't stop the penalties, the turnovers and the special teams blunders it's going to be tough to beat the best teams in the nation

Life has been crazy the last couple months- personally and obviously everything going on around this country. Woke up and decided my dad and I should make the drive over to Columbus, O-H-I-O.

Always happy to take in The Horseshoe and see our Buckeyes. Today was a good day and that’s what matters.

Plenty of thoughts on the game later but I’m exhausted. Go Bucks!

Dwayne Haskins is not progressing.
In the opener against Indiana when he finally got college PT I think he went out there with nothing to lose and just rocketed the ball right to the receivers without any real concern. Now I think he sees himself as being more under the microscope with Burrow now healthy and as a threat to his being the #2 guy...he may be pushing it a little.
