Willyville Guy Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 (edited) Another glorious day in the rivalry!  Both offenses looked good in the first half and went blow for blow... except for a Michigan turnover and inexcusable penalty that put them in a hole. Turned out a lot like last year when Ohio State was just too good and Michigan kept shooting themselves in the foot.  Dobbins is an absolute dog. Can’t wait to see what he does next. His 30+ carry game today reminded me of Beanie Wells’s historic Michigan game when Tress refused to call a single pass play in the second half (lol Todd Boeckman).  Fields was insane coming back from an MCL to throw a 30 yard strike to Wilson. His health is obviously critical. Please be okay.  Going into the game I was scared of Michigan’s huge receivers. I figured Okudah and Nico Collins would cancel each other out, but I thought Peoples-Jones presented a huge problem on the other side. Turns out that kid had a nightmare day with drops, and Arnette did a great job covering him. That matchup made a huge difference. Browning needs to stay healthy and get the majority of snaps. I love Borland but the D operates at a different level with Browning in there.  Riep played well in Wade’s stead and his INT was a well-deserved closer. But Wade really needs to play if there’s going to be a deep playoff run this year.  Just as Olave’s coming out party was last year’s Michigan game, to nobody’s surprise Garret Wilson has his party today. The WR room is stacked and only getting better. Senior Austin Mack had a weak season and I’m not sure if he’ll be on an NFL roster next year,  but I’ll always remember and appreciate his contributions during the Michigan games. Incredible.  Eight in a row. I must be dreaming. Go Bucks. Edited December 1, 2019 by Willyville Guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually prefer being the non- 1 seed. Let everyone hype up LSU and Clemson for 3 weeks instead. Buckeyes with an underdog mentality are highly dangerous. It’s when they are a huge favorite things sometimes get dicey.  And what happened 3 years ago is a great talking point too. Totally different players and coaches (except LJ) but building that payback narrative will be helpful. The 2016 team was talented, but lacked things like a QB who could throw the ball. Edited December 8, 2019 by YoloinOhio 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willyville Guy Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Having Fields and Young in NY as Heisman finalists is super cool and further shows that this has been a truly unique year for the Buckeyes. I feel like Dobbins may have been snubbed, but it feels greedy to write that under the circumstances. Hopefully, and more importantly, *he* feels snubbed and goes out to let the world know how far he’s come this year.  Speaking of which... I also hope Wyatt Davis is okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Dobbins didn’t get invited because there were three RBs this year with similar numbers and they canceled each other out. But there is no other RB in the country I would rather have on our team. Edited December 10, 2019 by YoloinOhio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP some Michigan defender's ankles.  Did you see that look in his eye in the first quarter of the Michigan game, and again in the B1G Championship? He looks extremely intense out there. OSU's success this postseason will all start and finish with him, with big plays to the WRs (and Ruckert finally!) mixed in to make the difference.

On the recruiting front, he’s from NJ and has a sense of what’s up in that part of the country. I’d be psyched.  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
