[@chazemuney1590]

Yea IMO Ohio state coaches seem like they where trying to coach in the worst predicaments, well Fleck said he will make OSU coaches coach and I think they gave him a great response and no disrespect to Minnesota cause they are a really good team but OSU coaches made the game close (which I predicted) I had Minnesota putting up 21-28 on us this was very much expected for me, but our coaches needed a challenge so they gave their selfs one, with starting two freshman at Cb and Seyvn Banks sitting out for no reason I think I seen OSU intent right there, we had 12 players out well 13 technically with Palaie Gaoteote (our most talented Lb) still not eligible yet, then on the offensive side we fed Miyan the ball 8 times and he averaged about 10 yards a carry and obviously couldn’t be stopped, I think this just goes to show you how dangerous this OSU team really is, they faced a pretty good team that’ll be ranked, at their house, at 8 pm first game of season and with 12 players out and practically forced CJ to get comfortable, I don’t see to many teams to beat this team when they are at full strength

[@michaelsizemore5911]

@@chazemuney1590 I agree with most of what you said and as a buckeye fan and realist you’re right not too many teams will be able to beat this team when full strength. Cam Brown and Banks were both listed about 7hrs before the game as out, banks is still dealing with the leg injury that’s been nagging him in camp and with Cam I think with the weather and the injury he came off of they were already hesitant.. as much as the defensive secondary looked lost at times guys like ransom and burke looked very good. Miyan needs the ball more as does Trey, 3 totes for him freshman or not is not the way to go. with that OL we should be a run first team anyways and usually always have been. We have a lot of shiny toys but will be much easier to use them with that established run. Teams (even after last night) are going to try and make CJ beat them and if I were a defense I would too. Most of his throws were uncontested and guys were wide open. He has to just take care of the ball and make good decisions

[@chazemuney1590]

@@michaelsizemore5911 I agree with that and I said that on another comment, CJ is what every other defense is watching they want him to beat them, because he is very talented but looked hesitant and way to nervous, like he’s use to being a backup now that wasn’t expected from me, I thought he’d make a quick transition and your right even the touchdown passes where cause our receivers getting open he has to take care of the rock but he’s hesitance will make him make bad decisions I love the fact our coaches forced him to get comfortable we kept airing it out even if we didn’t think it’ll work and came up with 2 scores cause of it and his interception was his fault but it did bounce of a guys hands still CJ fault cause he was clearly overthrowing guys and playing to nervous but I happen to believe that those are first game jitters I believe he turns it on against Oregon and steals the show there he’ll be the star of that game him and Olave will steal the show but for teams like Indiana, Penn state etc we are gonna have to beat them on the ground, I think we can beat Oregon on the ground to I just happen to know their secondary isn’t as good as their D line or linebackers

Super impre4ssed with Wilson. i expected Olave to excel. wide receivers will open the good running game for end runs. i expect the OS offense to excel this year. Stroud is still a question mark but experience will do him a world of good. The offense may have to carry the defense this year. Or maybe the Gophers are for reaql this year. Their running game looks great and they can throw the medium range passes effectively. I guess next week at Oregon will show more of both Stroud and our defense.

THE strip sack for a TOUCHDOWN was great, but Ibrahim getting knocked out I thought was more of turning point, minnesota lost that edge...

[@alblack3425]

OSU had no answer for him on the RPO's running off tackle.

[@danielmiller9012]

OSU was a -400 favorite after the strip sack / touchdown .. The odds hardly shifted when Ibrahim went down. Disagree with this, Minnesota ran too much. 5 yards per play isn't getting it done against a team that's generating explosive plays against you. In fact, I'd argue OSU's injuries were more significant. - Missing starting Center -Missing 2 starting CBS -Best DB went down around the time Ibrahim did in Proctor Missing two starting CBs is a huge shift and CBs are more important than Rbs IMO.

[@BigmacYT1]

Ibrahim looked great and I hope he gets back on the field soon, but every running back takes wear and tear. When the entire team leans on him I expect him to get banged up and hurt. Would've been an interesting game had he not been taken out of the equation

Anyway, the OSU Offense was very impressive. I was especially impressed by the offensive line and the offense's overall speed and skill. And though Minnesota is a very good program, the OSU defense is still a major concern. Ibrahim ran through them all night, which opened up the passing game.

Great game! Congrats to OSU on the win. My observations of this game conclude that Minnesota is underrated and should be a top 20 team.

Minnesota played like a very well coached team that is missing some talent on the corners and at safety.

Two thoughts: First, D needs to get off the field! But it was probably good for the defense to get all those reps (Minn 75 offensive plays, OSU 48 plays).

Great game! Minnesota came with a gameplan, OSU Didn't break :D The Backs, Oline and Dline were good tonight. Stroud after the half to :D Great hit near the end btw, That kid made a play.

[@robmichael8136]

He's lucky that wasn't targeting. The ref gifted him the no call and his next game because he wanted that game to finally end.

[@r3_wastaken]

Yeah, that hit was dirty, it’s the exact play that the pros want to take out of the game, the kid was nearly knocked out cold because the defender lead with his helmet and hit the defenseless receiver in the head. Textbook targeting, doesn’t matter the intent.

[@randallperkins7944]

@@r3_wastaken Nah, it wasn't a dirty hit at all. He was trying to make a big play, and he did. He was not leading with his helmet or the crown of his helmet, especially with no intention to injure a player. The WR lowered his helmet into the defender anyway, causing any kind of tiny contact. I am glad the reff over looked any kind of 'targeting' call, no one deserved to be thrown out the next game for anything... I am all for keeping players safe and keeping the dirty plays out of the NFL and Ncaa.. That is not what this was even closed to and Ohio State has never been a dirty team in my 20 plus years of watching them D: They won't start under Coach Day.

[@sports3117]

OSU is going to be in this college football playoff race, their big concern is that defense is giving up big plays in the running game. They’ll get better as they face better and stronger opponents this season

[@brians.2392]

Yeah the defensive backfield

[@rxlo_jay5549]

Henderson the next zeek 💯

[@blankname6629]

Completely different style. Think Reggie bush usc. Elliott is and was a much more powerful runner. This guy is a speed guy who can catch the ball out of the backfield as demonstrated by the long td catch.

[@bbjj2867]

I thought after watching this game that number 28 and number 32 looked great. Not a Ohio State fan. But they have two really good young RBs.
