RB just needed to fall forward. That was on the runner.

I don’t disagree but a sneak is pretty much an automatic 1st down there.

 

[upnorthkid]

3rd and inches and you run a pitch to the outside? A sneak gets the 1st easy.

Thought this live as well though maybe trying to play a tendency against Texas’s big guys inside? They’d been running the ball well though

 

[Gopherchase]

This too. He should have cut upfield when there was a slight opening. Only needed the one yard and he instead tried to break outside for more and ended up not getting the first. Bad play.

Mo gets that first down 100 out of 100 times.

One of the things I loved about Mo. took what was there and was a great situational RB in that regard in when to try hit it for more. Super underrated trait. Thought he’d be great in the nfl but such an unfortunate injury

 

[upnorthkid]

That’s an extremely rough call on OSU

 

[GophersInIowa]

Ohio St can’t get out of their own way

 

[mggoph]

Shit, we are going to have to hear SEC chants yet...lol

 

[Schnauzer]

OSU brought the team they played Michigan with.

Oregon says “thank you very little”

And the play calling. They have the most dominant receiver in college football and he has 1 catch for 3 yards.

Agreed. Unsure if he was trying to hit a home run or just over thought it, but situation was hammer it up inside in get your yard and live for the 1st down

Which is why it was also a bad play call. Why flip it outside when you only need a yard. Clearly the back didn't get the memo.

Been a very very weird game from them. Middle has been open all game and they keep running these deep outside throws. They’ll hit some, but it’s what tx is giving you so take it rather than force

Mo was a smart, team first player. He knew the situation at all times and cared more about winning the game than his own personal stats.

The niners run that crack toss a lot and yeah the run was to smash it up inside for the yard off the toss. To me not so much the scheme, but that needs to be the communication that the cut inside is what you want

 

[mggoph]

Is that 20 penalties yet?

 

[Schnauzer]

Tonight feels a LOT like last night if you are a B1G fan.

 

[FinnGopher]

Ohio is playing like they see Michigan on the other side of the line. So much talent and such mental weakness in big games.

 

[upnorthkid]

Great drive from osu

 

[golf]

Why did it take so long to go a 12 team playoff. I am more of a college BB fan but this football tournament has been fun.
Maybe next year play games at higher seed would be a suggestion.

 

[stocker08]

Hmmm.....went straight ahead rather than run a pitch play.

 

[upnorthkid]

Theres a brutal call in Texas as well

 

[WindyCityGopher]

Ohio State’s defense looks like it’s running on fumes.

 

[stocker08]

lol texas pitch play

 

[upnorthkid]

Should run more toss plays out of wide sets

 

[GophersInIowa]

I don’t get it. You risk so much by running to the outside at the goal line.

 

[stocker08]

lol, hell yeah.

Show McConaughey pleeze.

 

[upnorthkid]

The Michigan fan in my household is very upset by this possible title matchup

 

[stocker08]

Ewers smelling more like Sewers.

 

[Gopherchase]

Hero play by 33. How awesome to see a kid rise to the moment like that.

Ewers not so much. Just doesn’t have “it”.

 

[Border Gopher]

lol, hell yeah.

Show McConaughey pleeze.

My Grandpa is smiling up in heaven because this would have been his dream National Title matchup.
