Shout out to Johnston. Damn fine job.

shout
verb/noun To buy drinks at a pub for all the people in your group. The system is reciprocal in that next time someone else will "shout". "Shout me a beer, mate." Turn to pay, as in "It's your shout, mate."

"Shout" in Australian slang is to buy a round of drinks.

Just curious where and when will you be buying?

Wow. Nice pull. Pony up Matcar!

Great game Saturday night. Definitely deserving of consideration for the game MVP.

 

[TooTall]

5 inside the 10, 1 between 10-20... Absolutely deserving of team MVP last night.

Wow. Nice pull. Pony up Matcar!

If Johnston makes his way to the mid south, I'll buy him a whole keg if he wants it.

Kid has been as advertised. We had a run of tremendous punters (Groom, Sander, Trepasso) in the first 5-6 years of the JT era. Johnston last night reminded me of A.J. Trepasso in the '06 Texas game. He played a HUGE roll in that game continually pinning Texas deep in their own territory.

Remember Skladany. Johnston seems to have that type of leg and control.

That was back when the punt was the most important play in college football

I might have seen this before, but I cannot find it now, so I will post/repost

It was an interesting combination of approaches for the third-ranked Buckeyes. A slightly rusty Miller threw for 198 yards to balance the typical power attack favored by Ohio State teams for decades.

The Buckeyes also played field position, pinning 24th-ranked Wisconsin inside its own 10 five times and eschewing hefty field goal tries to consistently leave the Badgers with long fields.

The latter angle is precisely how former coach Jim Tressel authored a decade of destruction in the Midwest, in ugly fashion.

This one wasn't pretty either, but it was just as lethal.

Two interviews 10 minutes each... The poor kid had to give a 20 minute interview?

He must have done so well in practice that coach Meyer game-planned for him to get some more pt than usual...

The 21-year-old Aussie has a knack for putting backspin on his punts, allowing him to pinpoint his punts rather than have them bound end-over-end into the end zone.

"He's actually better at that than driving it," coach Urban Meyer said. "His last punt was a 4.5- or 4.6-seconds hang time and that's what we expect all the time. He's a very valuable weapon for us. He's a freshman, too, so we've got him for a long time."

How Johnston came to Ohio State is an epic story on its own.

 

[RB07OSU]

Amazing punt towards the end of the game to put Wisconsin deep in their own territory. Incredible how we ended up with such a weapon.

He is 21, so he is at least 3 years removed from high school. Anyone know if he harbors any hopes of going pro early?
