It’s no longer early in the season, they can’t use that excuse. Their inability to run the ball and constantly giving up big plays on D is going to bite them big time once they actually play a good team that can take advantage. They were missing 5 defensive starters (Wade and Landers left in the 2nd half) but with their depth and what they pay this coaching staff that should not result in ineptitude. The OL was a mess yesterday - that’s a bad sign. There are good things too but they are playing with fire. Sparty isn’t a good team but they almost always give the Buckeyes a game. Purdue’s offense might light them up. Every week is like Russian roulette around here. We really need Bosa back. I didn’t think he made that big of a difference but I believe he does.

The defense is scary and they can’t run the ball. Haskins has been unreal and kept them where they needed to be. This is 2 straight weeks though where they let a way inferior team hang around into the 2nd half. This needs to change and soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t remember a worse game from the senior captain. There is good cause to be concerned about each game left on the schedule (except Nebraska ?). Sparty and TTUN are always tough. Purdue can absolutely take advantage of the defense. Maryland is playing well and a potential trap. Buckle up.

YoloinOhio Posted October 14, 2018 Author Share Posted October 14, 2018 What I don’t get is why they can’t run the ball. Is the run blocking scheme just too dependent on having a running QB?? They can’t adapt? You would think that there would be huge holes given the state of the passing game and defenses not being able to focus on the run. But urban said they are stacking the box... makes no sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willyville Guy Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 (edited) With Bosa and healthy depth players on the D line, that unit was so dominant that it could overwhelm offenses and cover up issues on the back end. The injuries have left the entire defense badly exposed and now the team goals are in doubt from my perspective. It will take a historic performance by Haskins down the stretch and an incredible coaching job by Schiano and Grinch to get this sorted.

YoloinOhio Posted October 16, 2018 Author Share Posted October 16, 2018 (edited) In some ways I think urban is glad this distraction is off the table and of course the way he handles it in front of the media (the 100% support of his decision) and the potential of a healthy Bosa going #1 helps his first love, recruiting. On the field, it’s probably the difference between being a true contender for the national title this year.

And for me personally, I will always be thankful for the times when I got to enjoy watching a Bosa blow up offenses for the Silver Bullets. Legendary stuff from those boys.

Right and this one hurts bad because Nick Bosa only started three times and never played a full game for OSU. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted October 16, 2018 Author Share Posted October 16, 2018 I would bet a large amount of money that Urban is more focused on Zach Harrison right now than Nick Bosa. Is what it is. And I guess that’s all it can be, if you are him. Schiano, LJ, Grinch probably already knew this was coming too. As a buckeye fan it sucks so so much. But there is zero disrespect from me on the decision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I see all of the talking heads discussing what Bosa has done. Some seem to understand, but some others are ripping him like Tebow and a select few. For what? Because he already got hurt and had to have a surgery so he packed it in? Can you blame him? The NCAA and Ohio St. don't give a crap about him or what his future holds. The guy is basically skipping a bowl game and people are talking crap. I'm a Notre Dame fan through and through. I remember the injury Jaylon Smith suffered against Ohio St. in that bowl game that could have cost him his career. He was a top 10 lock in that upcoming draft and fell to the 2nd Round along with the almost 2 years it took him to recover. The people talking crap about Bosa skipping a game or two to focus on his future, in which he may very well be the #1 overall pick, are as pompous and short sighted as the NCAA that uses these kids as a cash cow in the first place.
