Let’s be real guys, Ohio State beat Texas at home week 1 by 7 and a lackluster Michigan program. This was their marquee victories.

Big takeaway im getting so far is this year is substantively worse than last year across the board other than Notre Dame and maybe Miami lol. The last team in via extremely wild backroom politicking and the victim of it.

Last years Ohio State would be up three or four scores right now.

There’s a ton of specifics and blame we can get into on the Miami loss. Bottom line, the program from top down was not prepared properly and ready to go in that game. Not ready for the heat, and not physical and low energy on both sides.

A&M was specific player and coaching blunders. That’s the game we should have won by 10

Don't confuse fatigue with obsession.

Think it’s pretty safe to say the SEC has been humiliated so much this season, they have become desperate and are now flaming message boards.


And I’d say with certainty the troll isn’t a Bama or UGA fan. They are also tired of the conference meat riders that contribute nothing, but feel entitled to everything.

Miami pushes the Toney button too much. Nobody is surprised by it anymore

I mean Miami might be the best team in the country when they’re on and they were on that week.

Tough to match up a freshman qb in his first game who against a seventeenth year starter too. I would have liked us in a rematch but I don’t think the game was like a massive program failure or anything.

The program failure game was the TAMU game. The Miami game was full of things to learn from

Yeah. Miami was better that day. I came away knowing we were better than A&M. Frustrating.
It was frustrating but we all know that ND did not truly lose to TAMU. They got fucking screwed on the last play of the game. Capital S.

This game will do quite a bit for Miami, unfortunately.

The Jeremiah Smiths that didn’t want to spend college in a program that may not be able to take it all will start committing.

On the other hand, when we smoke them in our house next year that will be all the more fun.

I’m not sure Beck can throw the ball well more than on short options and comebacks. His arm looks a lot more “worn” out vs. week 1.

Think they’d press up out wide a bit.

Nah. Just keep playing 12 yards off the ball and suffocate in your own fluids.

This is week 1 Chris Ash defense OSU is showing.

Death by a thousand papercuts. Not playing bad at all, but not getting off field when needed.

Denbrock didn’t give up 41 to A&M
Ok Fn Denbrock and Fn Ash! I think Ash had a better season than Denbrock did. Denbrock was gifted some studs across the board and did ok with them.

I mean, that's true and it needs to be addressed, but it being week 1 with a new defensive coordinator on the road is a lot more forgivable than what we're witnessing right now.
