LOL- OSU had Marvin Harrison Jr, one of the premiere receivers in all of college football the past two decade,s in one on one coverage for most of the first half yet rarely targeted him. Its the same idiot game plan week after week. Rather than continually throw the ball to #18, its a vanilla, non imaginary scheme- despite the fact they have two additional outstanding receivers and a terrific tight end. Meanwhile what did Michigan do on 4th and 1?? Right, play action pass to the TE for a 10 yard gain when everyone thought they were going to run the ball.
But if you watched OSU on a week in, week out basis for years now you would understand.
No surprise CJ Stroud never won the Heisman nor was a serious Heisman contender at OSU (despite being a finalist in 2022) but he’s now tearing up the NFL as a rookie.
DAY is an awful coach who cannot develop QB’s and his team only plays to their level of competition- and he was completely outcaoched by an interim HC yesterday.
McCord is a mediocre quarterback surrounded by excellence. That interception he threw early on shows it. He can’t run either.
Next year will be a total rebuild year. Buckeyes better be ready to lose to UM next year, too.
Don't be too hard on them, Mich has the best defense in the country as well as the 2nd best pass defense, allowing only 144 passing yards per game and Harrison was the intended receiver of that pass that ended up as an interception early in the game.
That may have altered their passing plans....
**..CJ Stroud..**
I don’t watch any football, unless I’m at my son’s house. He said that guy would have beat GA last year if his top receiver hadn’t been clobbered. He said bama lost a top receiver against GA the year before that.
They say it’s a game of inches. It’s also a game of injuries.
