2 hours ago2 hr No. Although a lost fumble by Miami stalled what looked like a promising drive.0-0 so far. After 2 possessions, tOSU has 1 first down.
2 hours ago2 hr Moderator No. Looks like some serious rust on Bucknut's side. Offense out of sync and Sayin having some accuracy issues. Tackling a bit of a problem too. If Miami didn't have the dropsies they'd be up by a score as they are moving the ball well.
2 hours ago2 hr No. I had some other matters to attend to and JUST turned on this game. 7-0 Miami in the 2nd?? Really?? Where is OSU's offense??
2 hours ago2 hr No. Call me crazy, but I wish we were playing tOSU next instead of TT. The B12 hasn't looked bad in bowl games with lowly TCU (who got steamrolled by BYU, who got steamrolled twice by TT) beating USC (which is one of our better wins) and Utah rolling today. Not sure tOSU is that great.
2 hours ago2 hr Author No. They have none so far.The only first down came on a pass to Smith.Miami is playing both sides well.
2 hours ago2 hr Moderator No. Miami flat out beating tOSU at the LOS, something Mari⁰ would call out-physicaling tOSU's physicality.
2 hours ago2 hr Moderator No. And just like that they force Sayin to make a bad read on a screen and a pick-6. Miami 14-0.Like Neil Young once sang, "Rust Never Sleeps". So great to see Bucknutt getting bit by it.
2 hours ago2 hr No. Started watching on ESPN2. Mac Affee was driving me and my spouse nuts. Fortunately we could change to ESPN and normal people talk.
2 hours ago2 hr Administrator No. The “Long-Layoff” monster just bit another! Hope Texas Tech gets a bite tomorrow… Mr. FishDuck
2 hours ago2 hr No. If the bye teams get boat raced in the first half again this year, the pitchforks will be out for this schedule and we will moved to a 16 team schedule with no byes.
2 hours ago2 hr No. The Buckeyes do look a bit lethargic like their opponent did last January 1st.Probably not a good thing for the Ducks, it will catch the attention of Texas Tech.
2 hours ago2 hr No. Could see a bit of trickeration from Mario like there was at the game in Columbus?
2 hours ago2 hr No. Miami defense is straight hunting right now. tOSU better figure it out or this might get ugly!!! Miami defense front has more than a few boys that will start on Sundays!

Texas Tech is the team that has had the long layoff this year, not Oregon.
1 hour ago1 hr Moderator No. Miami's stunts, shifts and blitzes are just discombobulating the tOSU O-line and confusing Sayin. The Bucknutt defense has finally stiffened up and is playing better, keeping them in it for now.
1 hour ago1 hr No. tOSU is getting done to them what they did to Oregon last year. Their fans are NOT happy on the forums!!

1 hour ago1 hr No. I’m excited, tOSU has the talent to get back into this! Second half could be very good football!!!

1 hour ago1 hr No. wow....Im amazed at how big AND fast, the Miami D lineman show. This half of football for Mario is going to really help his recruiting and portal picks.

That front door was g ferocious. I was pretty concerned about the Hurricanes from them until they lost to Louisville. I wasn't sure which Miami team would show up today. I guess they've shown us.

1 hour ago1 hr No. "With all due respect, that was last season. Texas Tech is the team that has had the long layoff this year, not Oregon."Perhaps TT gets a wakeup call by watching this tonight. That was the point. There was no similar experience for Ducks to witness during last season's first 12-Playoff.

There was no similar experience for Ducks to witness during last season's first 12-Playoff.The rust factor is no secret even before this first half, and how much can you do about it now? It's mental and physical and affects some more than others.There is no guarantee Tech comes out off, but it is something that could be a factor, and certainly something they have to overcome moreso than us. And seeing yet another occurrence of it makes it all the more possible it does happen to TT. Edited 51 minutes ago51 min by Solar
35 minutes ago35 min Moderator No. Based on the pace of play, the time remaining, and the score this could come down to the wire. If that’s the case Mario is in trouble.
32 minutes ago32 min No. Just have to wait for the run game to stop working so that Mario will forcibly try it up the gut every time.
20 minutes ago20 min No. I know it's subjective, but I do think these CFP games have more "juice" than earlier bowl games. More, and more equally distributed talent, for the most part.
13 minutes ago13 min Moderator No. Can’t decide who to root for. On one hand it’s always fun to watch Mario blow it. On the other, it may be better for tOSU to go down now before building that playoff momentum we saw last year.
7 minutes ago7 min Moderator No. Up by 3 and 2 minutes left in the game. Will Mario finally manage the clock and run out the game or screw it up like he usually does?
2 minutes ago2 min No. Makes you wonder how many Ohio State players got caught looking ahead to the draft.
