Doesn't look like OU took this game seriously

but he doesnt have the accuracy to beat UMs secondary in good coverage.

81 on the hitch and go was already running free when it was thrown, but he doesnt have the arm to sit back and pick that secondary apart

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

just doesnt have the throw game to beat these DBs

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

he's dreadful

mich did the smart thing and ran underwood finally. that's their offense going forward.

he managed that at least lol

And will likely carry them all season

you just had 2 successful run plays in the red zone and your next play has no RBs? dumb.

this is bama football. run well and played good defense. makes everything else simple.

ryan day just is who he is at this point

too bad because this looks like a really really talented team and were lights out for most of the game

why the fuck didn't they just let them score at the end?

gassed up off of a mildly successful Matt Patricia reclamation project, Arthur Smith was a bridge too far

Patricia may have only been good under Belichick, but Smith was never good

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

the breakdowns occur in every phase of the game. it's been happening since 2019 clemson. same exact blueprint. at least last night we fed our alien wr instead of sitting him on the bench for the 4th string TE.

it never gets talked about, but if osu doesn't complete a 3rd and long to jeremiah and make their chip shot fg against ND in the nc game, then osu probably loses in the same way they did last night. neither game should've ever been close.

we paid this kid from baylor whatever ungodly amount of money these kids get nowadays and that kick didn't have a fucking prayer in the world

and with how consistent OSU has been in my life I'm not entirely sure he even runs a good program but i'll give him the benefit of the doubt on that

but i am damn sure when it comes to lining it up on the grass and calling it, that mf is dogshit

<--- Big Baller World Order

there are no good coaches with consistently poor special teams

by never having the crater season, every year is a lotto ticket of probability where eventually the roster and the coordinators will come together and win 3 in a row at the end of the season and he'll have another championship. avoiding that crater season is notable i suppose.

but there are no good coaches with consistently poor special teams

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

>. avoiding
>that crater season is notable i suppose.

Day has not just skirted mediocrity but has osu competing for a nc every single year. the rosters are consistently stacked and they kill it in every draft and their players actually ball out at the next level.

with NIL it's not really an apples to apples comparison but the talent level at osu has actually been upgraded since urban left and that's pretty inconceivable.

the fear isn't really a crater season but a crater 5 or 10 year stretch (or more) which just about every blue blood has experienced except osu. again, the coaching critiques are extremely valid, and the big game meltdowns have been beyond unacceptable but gotta give the appropriate credit, where it's due.

if he has 2 seasons like Cooper's last 2 then he'll be out the door, and since the portal offers a chance to plug the holes before they start leaking, it would take a monumental fail to go 8-4 because Day will never be stuck with Stanley Jackson and Steve Bellisari

Bob Stoops used to drop an 8 win season every now and then, but that was before the best players on the worst Big 12 teams could join up.

i just think the inertia of present-day college football is too powerful for him to dip into 4 loss territory without some sort of precipitating catastrophe, and 10-2 clearly doesnt come with any consequences anymore. OSU's last 4 loss team under a full time head coach was 3 coaches and almost 25 years ago. theyve been in in the hunt literally every year since then. nothing about Day's tenure stands out from the other 2 guys except in a bad way in that hes the only one without an undefeated conference season with a Big 10 championship.

plenty of caretakers fall flat on their face, and hes kept the engine running, so he does get credit for that. but he didnt build the engine, and he hasnt been able to rev it up as high as either of his predecessors.

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

>but he didnt
>build the engine, and he hasnt been able to rev it up as high
>as either of his predecessors.

that's an incredibly arbitrary and meaningless achievement and conf championships are trending towards extinction.

both of his predecessors had major pitfalls as well and did not field teams that had a legit chance to win the NC every single season. there's some serious revisionist history to suggest that those coaches weren't consntaly under constant criticism in the same way that day is. again, the talent level has been elevated since urban's departure. so i dont agree with your assessment at all.

also, what tressel built has as much to do with ryan day as lloyd carr's carryover to kyle whittingham. no program in cfb is entitled to year in year out success. bring in the wrong coach and it can be over in a blink.

PSU last year and oregon's trajectory this year show that you can't just pay a lot of money and put the uniforms on and go 11-1 or whatever.

the loss to texas was absurd but the team still has everything to play for. as upset as i am about the loss im not going to delete from my memory the first 3 quarters where osu looked like far and away like the best team in the country.

these losses are bad but everyone gets wayyyyy ahead of themselves by writing day off. it's been happening for years and it's just wishful thinking because from people who wanna see osu go down in flames.

what i said they didnt do, they did do in 2019, and it still matters but now in a good way, in that their accomplishments are all pretty similar.

but generally, its all relative

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

edit: fat-fingered "post message" before i was done

what i said they didnt do, they did do in 2019, and it still matters but now in a good way, in that their accomplishments are all pretty similar. but its relative in that comparing careers that successful is inherently nit-picky.

clearly it takes a minimum amount of proficiency to keep OSU what it was when he took over, i just dont think its that high. he wins rhe games hes supposed to win, the talent means hes supposed to win the vast majority, and special teams & playcalling bugaboos derail a lot of the tossups.

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

>the talent means means hes supposed to win the vast majority

and who assembles the talent? who makes sure its the right talent, the right fit, and that the talent aren't complete shitbirds off the field? and then who develops that talent into nfl monsters?

oregon is proving how difficult this is despite having all the money in the world.

i don't think there's anything inherently different about osu relative to other blue bloods that makes them immune to down cycles. they've just had a succession of 3 really great coaches. fire day and hire the wrong guy and it could be over in a blink.

truth be told, Saban was losing grip too. the last chip was 2020. he left with his legacy intact before it got starting losing 3-4 games each year.

Y'all buy those labels, I was born supreme

>entirely sure he even runs a good program

but nobody has ran a better program on and off the field over the last decade than Day and there isn't anyone out there who makes me think they would do a better job in that regard.

the gold standard has been kirby but he hasn't competed for a NC in a minute and UGA has been a disgrace off the field

but I just hate how he never puts his foot on the gas with a lead. this is college football. ring that fuckin cowbell, don't sit there with the "clock control" shit so early in the 2nd half.

Yes, I'm mad. Let's move on.

if he doesnt lose that michigan game, that i sat in sub zero temperature for after a 7 hour drive from washington DC, i am convinced we dont go on that run.

he knew his ass was on the line and acted accordingly. now that the urgency is gone again, im afraid the bad ryan day has resurfaced..

he absolutely botched the Indiana and Miami games, both teams were very beatable if he wasnt such a bitch ass cowardly eunuch in big moments / drives


jack sawyer saved his ass with that strip sack td, otherwise who knows how that game ends after seeing what happened saturday


that being said, he runs a squeaky clean program, recruits amazingly well, and is a genuinely good person and won the 3rd natty of my life?

my days of calling for him to be fired are done

but my god, he is more conservative than Tressel, minus the excellent special teams.

Texas will be MUCH MUCH better by seasons end, as will we . I hope we get a rematch, this time with more players seeing playing time

Legend Bey only getting one meaningful snap is criminal.

This is a huge coaching failure before the start of the most brutal schedule in the country..


Hopefully he grows a pair

but mich fans wanted tressel and urban fired too so this isn't anything new

hes extremely likely to be the only constant of UMs first winning decade against OSU in quite some time

you get the elite nonconference win, then lose a home game where you outgained your opponent by 150 yards. that he did it by setting the aggression slider on an NFL-bound secondary allllllll the way to the left, is a perfect cherry on top

TOSU fans are psychotic and unreasonable , esp the vocal ones

Can't believe Duke lost Mensah and has still started 2-0. Gonna miss Manny when he inevitably moves on, but pretty overjoyed by his tenure so far, obviously.

Tune in to Hallmark Channel November 14th and 15th!

penalties in all phases. 35 yds on special teams!

some random thoughts about current college football


* So far I'm not impressed with our new offensive coordinator, I would much rather have Chip Kelly lol


*what happened to Ryan Williams? Two years ago he was mentioned in the same breath as Jeremiah, and now he's fallen off.



* Where did all the athletic tight ends go? We grew up with Shockey, Hernandez, Kellen Winslow 2, Heath Miller, Mercedes Lewis, Brandon Petitgrew, Greg Olsen, Brock Bowers, Vernon Davis , Jermaine Gresham, Bennie Joppru, Fred Davis etc

it seems like that position is extinct now, or at least in the way they were used (additional game breaking field stretching WRs that. can also hit and block)


*Lane Kiffin is the EPITOME of failing upwards. From being fired on the tarmac to king of Louisiana lol...I hope Ole Miss wins by 20


*the USC trojans have NEVER EVER made the CFB playoff, 12 years of just nothing lol...thats kinda mind blowing given the history / resources / talent pool surrounding them...they are out in DROVES this week in NYC bc of the game vs Rutgers, these fans are still incredibly arrogant but not in a michigan way

Keelon's under pressure. some of that is on the line. some of that is plays taking too long to develop. some on him holding the ball too long.

fsu looks a lot better in this game on both sides.

I knew this game would be tighter than the pundits. Daniels was the reason Auburn nearly beat Bama last year.

still need to fix the early sloppiness on offense. our dbs got cooked early too.

roll tide!

Y'all buy those labels, I was born supreme

Bama was UP....and then they sat around for an hour and a half and came out like crap

the second stoppage was the antidote wake up call and then they kinda doninated

and I know dude was under pressure but half the time its because he held the damn ball too long.

its under a minute left, just throw that shit and give someone a chance.

A check down with 21 seconds left is just dumb football. All those incompletions and now you want to complete a 2 yard pass on 2nd down that burned mad clock.

college football can be frustrating af. lol

is anyone still waiting on Arch to get better? he has his moments, but not enough.

UGA is probably the best team in college right now.

I don't know if it's Sark or it's Arch or it's both

But he should be looking way better than he is. Instead he looks like a running Quinn Ewers

kicking ass and losing

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

does Iowa's defense suck now or are they going to be honest about Bryce and the offense?

also, RIP -5.5 🫠

they should honestly score again anyways tho. theyre moving at will.

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

SO wasteful driving into scoring range and getting nothing, chickenshit playcalling on the last possession offensively, and a stupid personal foul on an incomplete pass to keep the drive alive

EXCATLY what they deserve smh

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

but TBH if theyd made it they would have won with another FG and everyone would have said it was a great call, bc they made him right either way by not trying to win the game after he missed

I don't think any of this changes how awful that call was. We're playing to win the game not cover the spread. You need to let your offense win you the game there on 4th down.

Polar opposite but equally stupid was Riley going for it on 4th down at midfield with 7 min left. Need to make oregon go 90 yards and trust your defense to make a stop.

i started celebrating as soon as he missed smhlol

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

>does Iowa's defense suck now or are they going to be honest
>about Bryce and the offense?

if they ran underwood 15-20 times per game.

all that said, they scored a whopping 19 points.

now just a 3 point game and Trinidad moved through the Gator D light they were a light fog

kinda feels like UF needs to score every time they have the ball, because Ole Miss is going to
