Just watched the OSU/Mich. St. game. Pathetic.
Question for OSU offensive coordinator Bolden.....how many times do you try to run it up the middle and it is stopped before you realize they have the inside packed in and if you're going to move the ball, ya gotta go outside? 9 sacks with the offensive line standing around after each sack oblivious to what is happening. Just terrific.
Braxton Miller doing the two-step in the pocket as he is surrounded. He runs, right? Then shotgun him so that he can see the field and take it to the outside. Bauserman couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with his passes, has no speed and takes too many losses also. It is apparent OSU has no quarterback as yet. It is too late in the game to be still deciding, Fickle.
Fickle, the coach......standing there non-emotional with the "deer in the headlights"look on his face, as his team takes a beating and not even trying to do something different. What happened to wr slants for ten yards? What happened to screens to the outside? Did you see any of those? For crying out loud, I think we are back in the Woody Hayes days with all this "up the middle" crap.
It's gonna get uglier. Wait until Wisconsin and Nebraska get ahold of them. They'll need a third digit on the scoreboard.
Was hoping along about the third quarter that most people would have gotten up and left. Only a third of them did. Would have sent a message if the stadium was left with just MS fans.
Hard to watch OSU football be so futile and hapless. JMO

Ok.....they gave it to Nebraska the second half. The end was Bauserman entering the game. Didn't know a receiver route took them 10 rows up in the stands. Where was Bauserman throwing the ball? Mercy! How hurt was Braxton Miller? Gimpy ankle? Tape it and get back in the game. One leg, still better than Bauserman. Bauserman should be done and sitting. Fickle? Not suited for head coach. Totally lost and shell-shocked. Play the third string QB. Might be a surprise. Whatta ya got to lose? Too late to make the change from Fickle to a seasoned coach. Chalk off this year, take the lumps and embarrassment and get the qb's experience for next year. No bowl game for the Bucks this year. Tressel and the others have really decimated this program with their arrogance, haven't they? Gonna hate to see what Wisconsin does to them.
