Game Thread tOSU at NW'ern, Oct 5, 8 ET, ABC/ESPN/ESPN2

1. "Watched" this on my phone (live updates w/o video or sound) only beginning at 2:00 A.M. in Italy. Prior times I've been here during the fall were 2004 (lossses to Bucky and NW) and 2010 (loss to Bucky) so my personal curse is now over. Also, my Bloodbuzz, OH (see JLB's avatar) t-shirt remains undefeated.

2. This D seems to hate prosperity. As soon as OSU gets momentum, they crater, but when the shit's about to hit the fan, they seem to scrap through.

3. HYDE!!!!!

4. BOSA!!!!!!

5. When I saw the cover, I involuntarily but happily did the Urban getting the "Kiffin left Tennessee" text smirk.

6. BYE couldn't come at a better time.

What a great win! Certainly a struggle for Braxton, but others picked him up and that is what makes a team!
Brax is puzzling. Sometimes he makes such awful decisions but then sometimes he pulls it together and really leads. That last TD drive he did everything right. Other drives tonight, not so much. Must be frustrating for the coaching staff because he is such an amazing talent. Guess that's why they get paid the big bucks. :)

What is troubling me is we did all of these great things on offense for the first four weeks and now the last two weeks we've gone to a slow down and grind you down offense with no dontre wilson, and no hall. We will imo never be where we want (nc champ) until we trust our young talent so we can have a threat on outside the tackle runs. I just think by dumbing our system down with just carlos or braxton running the ball it enables teams that shouldn't be in games with us to stay in them.

We are 6-0 but we need to get better by a lot if we want to get past scUM and the big ten championship game. Thank god its a bye week.

Side note anyone else worried about indiana? With our secondary I sure as hell am.

Pretty sure Fitz threw a bunch of stuff in there to confuse him, but more alarming is that NW's scout report on Braxton must have told them that he does not hold on to the ball well enough, because they were really going after the ball every time they went after him. I would rather he make a few bad reads on running plays than fumble twice a game and throw a pick.
