That lack of fair catch is huge. OSU probably handles that series a little different from the 25 than 7. Then you consider 18 more yards of field position the other way, and the D is not playing on a short field too. Nebraska is not going to move the ball the lenght of the field unless they make some serious adjustments (unless tOSU gets burned up A Gap for 50 yards).

There was no pull, nothing and no one toward the right.

Didn't see if the RG pulled left or he flat-out did not?

Okay, this is fun but I am not going to state that OSU handles this offense different from their 7 v. 25. This gameplan looks to me like a kid playing Madden that found something that works, it'll take him two weeks to adjust once someone figures out how to counter his shit.

by **furls** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:15 pm

Pistol is not good against tOSU. They are more susceptible to the quick hitter.

by **e0y2e3** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:15 pm

I kinda suspect that Martinez is throwing these five yard gains just to flick the press off for all the shit he got this week.

Touche.

I am about done with Sabino too.

Holy FUCK. Did Hankins just make that tackle?

Notice that on three successful 3rd and Short converts, Taylor threw to Sabino's man?

by **peeker643** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:18 pm

Christ. That 20 yard throw might be as deep as Martinez can get it. And he drops the ball to just above his knee cap in that motion.

by **e0y2e3** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:19 pm

Yeah. Kinda like I noticed how Sweat gave Toledo 100+ yards on TE seems and kinda like everyone has burned Klein.

This LB core is terrible in drops, all of them.

by **furls** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:19 pm

Nice coverage. Good ball skills by OJ.

Agree.

Shazier is the future of this LB core. Hopefully Curtis Grant develops into something for next year.

Klein is slow. Sabino is lost. Sweat is average, but not very good in coverage.

Martinez is terrible. I cannot believe they are using him for anything beside option football.

His 8 YPC last year was not enough earn him carries this year.

As bad as the LBs have been, Bradley Roby and CJ Barnett have been that good.

by **furls** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:27 pm

Holy shit Travis Howard with a clean opnen field tackle!

by **e0y2e3** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:28 pm

FWIW: that Howard tackle on Martinez was perfection. Seldom you see someone actually form tackle.

by **e0y2e3** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:29 pm

Kids got a stutter step TPeezy never had. WAY better in the open field than Peezy as well.

And he's gonna die.

by **peeker643** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:29 pm

Wow.

To the horrific throw and the Miller run. Knock this through.

by **furls** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:29 pm

Great call by Millen on Compton's Jock Strap.

Miller is far more elusive than Pryor. I just wish he would juke less and commit to getting up the field more.

by **peeker643** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:32 pm

That was unexpected first half. Not so much the Nebraska offense being poor but the Nebraska defense being as bad their offense.

Gotta be a feeling of doom having to interview Pellini at the half after THAT.

He's getting hammered. I think he'll learn what you're saying real soon at this pace.

by **furls** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:33 pm

No shit, welcome to the B1G Nebraska. Even tOSU during a down year in your backyard is no fun. Nebraska wasn't great last year and I wasn't really buying them this year either. That said, I am glad they are in the B1G. I really want to get to Lincoln for a game.

It just occurred to me that Mike Brown is the Lakers coach and the NBA lockout is preventing us from watching Kobe slitting his throat.

:-(

Half-time analysis.

Slitting Mike Brown's throat or his own throat? Because both are going to be considerations when they do play.

by **FUDU** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:44 pm

Miller definitely has a move TP never had, but I don't think he is head & shoulders a better runner. Their styles are just so different. Pryor was way more of a strider, much more smooth, Brax is way more jittery, almost has Carlos Baerga steps.

by **furls** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:45 pm

I am enjoying the NBA lockout.

by **e0y2e3** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:45 pm

Peezy was not a runner, he was a run for the corner and beat you w/ speed or get tackled guy.

He's a freak, but I mainly mention how much better a runner Miller is to laugh at people that think Peezy could actually play WR.

by **dmiles** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:46 pm

Damn what happened to NW? I haven't been flipping over and UM is up 11?

by **furls** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:47 pm

I was always disappointed that TP never used his 240lbs to effect like Cam Newton. TP was a big strong guy, and I would have loved to have seen him plow some dudes on occasion (like Miller tries to do).

by **furls** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:48 pm

Miller could play WR, Pryor... No way. Not shifty enough.

Detard should be a WR.

TP was a self preservation runner.

You would prefer your starting quarterback to be something different?

by **furls** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:52 pm

Seemed like tOSU was much more effective running the ball than they actually were. If you take out Miller's rushing yards and Hyde's 63 yarder the Bucks only have 36 yards rushing for the game. I thought it was a bit better.

Just underscores the importance of Miller's mobility.

Not really, it was a smart move in a sense, frustrating for fans to a degree. IMO he left a lot of plays, or bigger plays, on the field.

At least he didn't run like you.

by **Cerebral_DownTime** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:53 pm

I could beat you in a footrace.

by **furls** » Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:55 pm

Why is Jordan Hall seldomly near the ball when it lands?

Man, who saw the Dave coming on the first play of the half for tOSU?
