Awful half

[Gocatsgo2003]

Defense flat, offense doesn’t have the firepower to make up for it.

Get your **** together, fellas.

And only down by 11, thank goodness. Sharpen things up in the second half, guys.

Deadest half of football we've played this year. Just terrible.

 

[catcrazy]

We need some spark. I don’t know where it will come but it needs to come.

 

[Alan Smithee_rivals156293]

Grotesque. Time enough to fix it if we start immediately

 

[jensberg]

Seems like we are back to 2019 and that Anderson never coached the offensive line

 

[PurpleHaze525]

This game is over. Offense is completely dead.

Thank you for giving me some hope in this game

 

[SmellyCat]

Need better 3Q offense than last week that’s for sure.

@BigNUFan51 is the worst troll and should be banned. Don't know why we have to put up with his Nebraska garbage on our own message board.

Unfortunately this is kind of how our team is built, with razor thin margin for error. It is I think necessary because we don’t have the depth of talent, it’s just true. We win close games with excellent coaching, preparation, discipline and execution. If multiple phases are off, we can’t just outmuscle inferior teams with individual athletic efforts which is what you get with OSU and other teams that have 4* guys at every single position. Instead we get blown out by an otherwise terrible looking team who got beat up by Rutgers and shut out by Indiana.

When BigUNLFan51 declares the game over, one can rest assured it is not. I suddenly feel optimistic!

It may not matter now (as I expect more passing the rest of the way), but I wonder if the wind was factoring into the offense leaning on the run early.

 

[Deeringfish]

Too much reliance on the run, sort of on principal I think.

 

[BigNUFan51]

I call it like I see it. The oline is getting worked today.

The defense read their press clippings

So he is one of the few people I have ever put on ignore so I'd rather you didn't mention him.

Were you always like this? I guess I never really paid attention, but I might have to put you in a bin with BigNUFan51.

I got the feeling it was Fitz & co as much as anyone, feeling their oats. Insistence on the run, convinced we’d convert 4th downs (or not have to pay a price if we didn’t).

 

[ColumbusCatFan1_rivals]

If true, I would recommend getting your eyes checked.

Your vision has let you down so far this year.

 

[NURoseBowl]

Doth not panic, guys. This game is far from over.

The better team won the first half
None of this " we played poorly, you didn't beat us" guys. We aren't like that
