***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT #1 RANKED OHIO STATE BUCKEYES IN-GAME THREAD***

[Maroon92]

Time to bring in Croft- game is clearly over and Leidner is struggling. Lets see what he can do without Leidner getting hurt in a meaningless 4th quarter

 

[GophersInIowa]

I wouldn't send Mitch back out there, might as well try the backup and get him experience.

Croft would get killed.

At some point, it's not bad luck.

I usually defend Leidner - he has no receiver help most of the time. But he just doesn't seem to have "it" tonight

More 3 and outs than my last date!

 

[station19]

Well if we had an offense.

 

[Coolew01]

Why do we continue to beat our head against the wall on 1st down and run it every time?

Seemingly up the the gut too

This team is decimated by injuries all around. It's amazing between that and refs were only down 21 when this could be 50 plus

Right, he might as well get used to it

In meaningless games, that you've already won or lost, you should give him snaps. This is one of those games.

 

[Nax91]

Both of our RBs injured too? Great. Just great. Without them, I don't think we even have a chance the next few weeks.

 

[mcal24]

But do we really want our future QB coming in on the road, vs the best team in the country? Not really a confidence builder...

Our D has given up only 14 pts thru 3 quarters with absolutely no offensive support to the #1/#3 team in the country. On the road. Whatever you think about the rest of the game, that's pretty damn impressive.

He started out good. I think the INT and relentless pass rush in his face has taken a toll.

 

[Maverick]

Yeah we might as well let the youngster find out what its like to play against the entire big 10 manipulation.

 

[1967]

You an ohio state fan? Figures

Nope just someone who's probably been to more away games than you home games. Seen this all before. Program in all too familiar free fall to ground zero.

There has to come a time when we give up on Leidner. Just too many bad plays. And of course a what was that fumble every once in awhile.

Not to mention they played Elmore, Stetler and Timms at DT.

Confused. How was it still 2nd and 10 only when osu fumbled that hand off and were tackled well behind line of scrimmage? Or did abc just not update their graphic?

This is true. I'm still pissed that they reversed a judgement call especially in these days when in doubt, protect the QB. If they made that call in the big house, there would be riots.

 

[Nax91]

I wonder how this would look if JT Barrett was playing.

Ruled an incomplete forward pitch.

Wow, MSU just got jobbed.

Maybe review will uphold my sanity.

Don't.

Agreed. Seems they went deeper on the bench. Good sign.

 

[WindyCityGopher]

I realize OSU subscribes to the Randy Moss "I play when I wanna play!" dictum, but they haven't looked very impressive tonight, especially when compared to what Bama is doing to shut down LSU at the same time.

They called that a pass and incompletion. I'm not joking. Just went back to look at it.

Another terrible call. We should've challenged that one.

 

[Spoofin]

Are we blaming ML7 again? Oh, Goody. He clearly is the issue.

Which could be the worst call of the night. Jones never had control of the ball. In the end it doesn't matter but that wasn't even close.
