With Seth McLaughlin Out, Where Do The Buckeyes Turn?

[@sheryl420]

Prayers for a speedy recovery Seth! Thanks for being part of the Buckeye family and playing your best college days here, we fans appreciate it. Good Luck on your future plans being in the NFL!

[@diverbob33]

Praying for you Seth! Thanks for all your hard work in your short time here.

[@colynstarrett7303]

Seth was the definition of a true buckeye so sad for him

[@jaked6746]

Slide Hinz to center, Siereveld over to LG, and be thankful it didn’t happen mid game. We still have 2 weeks for this new line to gel before a potential B1G chip game & then a few weeks of practice after that to get this new group together. Prayers out for Seth, but let’s have some faith in our team y’all! Let’s use this to rally.

[@jacob-sv3gs]

Sereveld is awful

[@JeffreyLeohner]

Hey Buckeye fans, just remember the name Cardale Jones! Nobody other than Ohio State fans gave Ohio State any possible chance of even winning the Big 10 Championship! Ohio State not only destroyed Wisconsin 59-0, but beat #1 Alabama, and then destroyed Oregon, with the Heisman winner, Marcus Mariota, 42-20, in the National Championship game! 🌰🏈

So sorry Seth! You are in my prayers! I know you are the type of man that will come back even better. Maybe not for the Buckeyes, but for the pros. Good luck!

[@mecahhannah]

Love Seth thanks guys I HAVE FAITH IN THIS TEAM GO BUCKEYES!❤

[@timper4326]

I swear if it wasn't for bad luck, we'd be luckless. But, if we win out, I will have a newly found respect for Justin Frye. For if he can get this line together for our most important run, he deserves the highest praise. I'm not putting this all on him, the players have to execute at the highest level and be tough and consistent. This game will test our mental and physical toughness as a cohesive group. Go Bucks!!!

[@Yoooowesshum]

Really sucks for Seth. Best wishes for a full recovery Huge loss for the Buckeyes. Someone has to step up

[@markt5746]

The best thing about this is that Carson and Padilla both have had the opportunity to watch Seth for most of the year. Can’t think of a better person to learn from.

[@coganblaster]

So, we'll see how the recruiting of the OL, or lack thereof, effects them going forward. Fingers crossed.

[@MarkWallace-zo7bt]

Hate it for him. NEXT MAN UP......LET'S GO BUCKEYES

[@markbrooks9370]

Padilla is going against two pretty good DT in practice as well. Just sayin. Don’t break up the left side!! Edge rush is where we will get beat.

[@shewr4664]

Adversity can be a motivator. Prayers for Seth…the bucks will arise.. everything happens for a reason.. I remember watching JSN on the sidelines wounded… Prayers for this team. It is well. The bucks will overcome..:

[@troyv8302]

Hate that Seth got injured, he was my MVP of this team. I hope we Run the Damn Ball for him this week. Go Bucks!

[@sscraddock]

Hope Kazmerick is back and can help sure things up, up front. Also, hows JJ?

[@mattrannells8458]

Our QB might want to put on his running shoes and prepare for running qb alot if line breaks down...

[@cjhowell6406]

We'll be ok folks!

[@JasonSmith-th4ii]

I agree, and I’d like to see Padilla at center if he’s even close to ready. I’d rather replace one position than the two positions if we move Hinzman back.

[@harveyhester2113]

No we’re not alright we’re gonna get smoked

[@OSU2010]

Bro our whole OLine gone

[@NickolasNuber]

He can still have an impact with mentoring and cheerleading. He didn't lose his leadership.

[@kearlanventures]

Sad for Seth. First and foremost, wishing him the best. We’ve lost 3 starting OL this year. I know it’s part of the game, but is there something we need to be looking at here? Is there something we’re doing wrong? Or is this pure coincidence and bad luck?

[@buccizero]

Beyond heartbreaking.

[@rogerhayes4055]

Good bye season

[@mattrannells8458]

3 days before one of your biggest games...Tic Toc...Must get it Right Quickly!!!!

[@robschaller9061]

Hey I really need need some help... been working on this since last night. See, when I heard Seth's season ended it was the hardest kick in the balls Ive ever experienced. It was so hard that it kicked them right out of my body. I would say Im very attached to them was a thing but since this happened well, IT SUCKS. There is nothing that is going to make this better except for 1 thing and 1thing ONLY. It will make everyone happy AND THAT INCLUDES SETH. Say F*&^ it and go win the whole damn thing. It doesn't matter feeling sorry for ourselves as fans and as the team should feel about it. YEP IT SUCKS A$$ bigtime... SO WHAT? It doesn't change the fact that we have a game on Saturday and IU is not going to shed a tear. They might as well just take the attitude of Okay we have to take up the slack everyone else on the OL MUST absolutely MUST decide that they are just going to EXECUTE and take the pressure off WHOMEVER is taking Seths spot. The defense has to decide that they are now not going to give an INCH in allowing points they are going to have to STONE the running game and FORCE teams completely off down and distance and push 3rd and 10 on EVERY 3rd down. Get the ball back to the offense... offense cant move the ball and 3 and out... IT DOESNT MATTER STONE the opponent, get the ball back to the offense, Offense stuck in mud, 3 and out. IT DOESNT MATTER DEFENSE gets a scoop and score or a pick six.. OSU wins 7-0 If that what they have to do THATS WHAT THEY HAVE TO DO... I dont think even if the OL struggles that they wont score it may not be 30 points it may be 10. 13, 12 or whatever the point is THE DEFENSE has to take on the mantle of WE ARE GOING TO CARRY THIS TEAM

[@KevinThomas-fl5xg]

DAM! Get well Seth. Well next man up! O-H!

[@markheineman8783]

So we have an offensive line similar to the one we put on the field against Missouri last year?

[@rando6389]

No, Hinzman at C>>>>Matt Jones at C

[@BobJones-ue9cr]

My question is what kind of crazy crap is going on in that game simulation?

[@rogerhayes4055]

Lissen you all I love the buckeyes And I'm ohio state fan through and through, BUT THIS IS A MASSIVE HIT ON OUR OFFINCEIVE LINE , SEATH AT CENTER HES UNREPLACEUBLE so I don't think we will win this week, and possible next week, I think that you have seen all we are going to see from Ohio state this year we have take hit after hit on the offinceive line this year and this is a huge blow 😢

[@anthonyaliberti]

Carson played 12 games Last year center. We will be fine.

[@mattrannells8458]

We'll know within the 1st quarter of the Indiana game if they have any chance...Time will tell in 3 days...I'm thinking not good...

[@edwardcorino8327]

So how did the injury happen?

[@pb12661]

Ohio State should give him 3 million to come back and play/rehab.

[@mattrannells8458]

Next question is so don't you think our upcoming opponents will test our O-line and now things only get tougher...If it doesn't get fixed QUICKLY, could we be looking at Ryan Days last year...Especially knowing after a testy undefeated Indiana team and then TCUN...and then it gets tuff....😮 Hope in these games we don't lose another ....That's why we RECRUIT BETTER....😮

[@mattrannells8458]

Can Montgomery Step up...

[@kays6665]

OSU screwed not just a good blocker but he calls offensive line signals... you dont teach that in a week. Oregon did play OSU without their best player two times, so maybe it will be ok.

[@jeffprusha7019]

Padilla was a state finalist wrestler in Ohio. Wrestlers who play football use leverage very well! Relax, it will be ok!

[@shewr4664]

We thank God it did not happen in the game. They have Wednesday, Thursday night Friday to figure it out.

[@UncleRicoOSU]

It’s just ridiculously bad luck. Every team has injuries. Not every team has multiple season ending injuries to the players on their roster they can least afford to lose. We’ll see what they come up with.

[@markmiller4595]

The dysfunctional ghost of Justin Frye comes back to haunt OSU.

[@mattrannells8458]

Hey, it's only your 5 star center...We'll just put in next man up...Right??? This is terrible an inexcusable terrible news...Might be a bad DAY FOR DAY...Remember this year or BUST...Our O-line was not the Best coming into this year, this one might hurt!!!!😮

[@hummushero9428]

scUM lost Zinter (Probably thier best O-Lineman) last season late and were able to still win out in the CFP Let’s not think the season is toast just yet. Seth is a really solid player Not simple to replace, but I think this can be done. His leadership out there is the hardest thing to overcome perhaps. Whoever is playing center really needs to lean on his advice, and all the other Lineman need to band together and take on an unbreakable mindset.

[@JoshuaMollette]

They also had a ton of depth there, literally 6 nfl ready linemen.

Have some empathy… someone is injured. Where did humanity go?

[@edwardcorino8327]

Indiana and ich both sux. Wake up Tom

[@W00D3Ys]

I hate having to go to stats but Indiana's run defence is so over inflated. The best running offenses they have faced is Michigan ranked 73, Washington 91, and Nebraska 99, everyone else is ranked above 100 in rushing. Even without Seth OSU will be fine

[@matthewmiller5194]

Like wtf how we lose a guy in practice for rest season it's mid season it should be mostly walk threw and tape work on technical things

[@unreconstructed9172]

How the F does the coaching staff allow this? Next to last game of the season? Thats coaching. This team is done and so will be Day.

Unfortunately championships are won in the trenches and you can’t lose 2 of your top offensive linemen and expect to compete with the elite teams.
