Michigan shut out Illinois, I know they're no good but could the bucks do that? It will be a dark day when Michigan rolls out a better defense then us...not a sermon, just a thought
Multiple people on Twitter are confirming Boren is warming up as the other LB alongside Shazier!
This is going to be an interesting development to watch
Weather = Perfect
A lot of teams would have shut out Illinois today. Pretty obvious why they were recruiting penn state's players.
the kids are playing their tail off, and the coaches are screwing it up! - JLS
Go Bucks!

TOuch down Corey Brown!!

I've seen three tackles that could have been stopped. Eventually gonna call those late hits on Indy
We really need a passing game...We seem to have all the pieces and even Indiana with a back-up QB averages 300yrds a game passing. Once we get just an average passing game we'll be unstoppable.
D. Anthony
I agree..our passing game is well below average.

Braxton stares down his primary receiver and can't read D's at all BUT I love'em and take him over a gunslinger with no elusiveness.
D. Anthony
Eh I'll take a guy that can pick defenses apart with his arm. I'll take Brady and the Mannings over Vicks and Newtons anyday of the week.

Look at Boren on the coverage there! Nice!
Run_Fido's favorite word is strawman.
If the rest the B1G ever learns how to catch we could be in trouble.
Our secondary's best weapon is the dropped pass... I've never seen so many dropped passes against us as I've seen this year.

I'm glad Rod Smith is actually getting meaningful carries.

Please don't use the term "Silver Bullets" any longer until the D earns it. I hate when they refer to the Nebraska "Black Shirts" when it's been years since they've had a good D as well. Those nicknames have to be earned by great play.
D. Anthony
They had a top 5 defense in 2009 with Suh.

Braxton sucks today
Run_Fido's favorite word is strawman.
right now our offense looks a little like last year. Where are the screens and quick routes?
Hyde would've had a great run if Braxton would've game him the ball.
Run_Fido's favorite word is strawman.
He's making ridiculous decisions. WTF
Why throw it short of the 1st down?
Run_Fido's favorite word is strawman.
With the way Braxton watches his target, I don't know why we don't do more double move routes. A hook and go with an arm pump would be wicked against a D after a drive or two of our run game.
Where's the Guiton QB-ing with Braxton in the backfield I heard we've been practicing. I think he reads D's way better and we should use the formation at least a few times each quarter.
D. Anthony
Seems to smart of an idea for the coaches to actually do that lol
Run_Fido's favorite word is strawman.
Sick run by Hyde! That was Beanie!ish
Run_Fido's favorite word is strawman.
woof! Had problems getting radio broadcast. Internet problems.
Brown has good straight line speed but he is no Percy Harvin
Who is? Percy was voted as the top offensive threat in the NFC on Mike and Mike :)
D. Anthony
True but announcers threw out the comparison
That and Percy knew how to build his body as well.

Lucky that ball want picked

Yeah. More air under that and thrown to the back corner is an easy TD.
Can we ever throw the ball to Evan Spencer?

damn,damn,damn
Are you shitting me?
So we suck on offense, defense..and special teams? Sweet

Oh my goodness. We are giving this game away.
I missed a bunch due to internet. dang. Now that I'm here, uh, bucks, whatever! This is Indiana!

Kick off team is serious
All he does is catch TD's.

Need to stop them here. They get the ball first second half. Cant give up a late one.
Man I love seein those long bombs!!!
Will we ever get it together in the first quarter?
An angry fan...rooting for an angry team...led by angry coaches
If the defense had laid a glove on IU's RB we'd probably be up 24-0. They've got to tackle better
DEB II
My first half thoughts: Our passing game is ongs bombs and little 7 yard passes. We have absolutely no intermediate passing game. Our defense wouldnt have to rely on drops if we would just play some tight man defense out wide. Good to see noah spence out there tho.
J.Lehman was a badass LB for Illinois.

Braxton is just insane

He's 10 times better than Pryor!
DEB II
In Pryor's defense, he didn't have the Urban offensive system
True, but he waited to take off a lot of the time. Braxton just explodes
DEB II
Braxton is sick, for sure. I think Brax is better than Pryor too, but I don't think Pryor gets enough credit. He had Bollman's offensive lines and conservative play calling/offensive scheming and still accomplished a heck of a lot.
Your right. Miller just made a major fuhbar, that hurt.

What about now ESPN?

Poor choice. Come on Braxton. Throw the ball away
An angry fan...rooting for an angry team...led by angry coaches
I really thought Braxton would be a better passer than Denard but he definitely isn't. Not yet.
D. Anthony
You're underestimating how bad Denard is. Not saying Braxton is good right now, but compare their stats. Braxton is a much better passer than Denard. Denard is that bad.
Yes Denard throws more arm punts but he's also been more accurate...he's played against Bama and ND's D so his stats are going to be a little worse
D. Anthony
His completion percentage is ten points less than Braxton's and he has five more INTs. He is not more accurate than Braxton.
We went 10 years without giving up as many long plays as we have te last 1.5 years....and we have the most talent in the BIG. WTF. You have to ultimately put it on coaching.

Wasn't Wynn supposed to come to osu? What happened to that? Grades?

Still looked like he got his arm under the ball after the bobble without it touching the ground
D. Anthony
DEVIN!!!!
Looking forward to Paul Keels learning everybody's name.
Devin Smith would be a good receiver if he could catch
Purple Raider
Anyone else surprised Buckeye fans didn't fill those empty seats?
D. Anthony
What blows me away is with all the mistakes we ALL see, look at the points on the board! What happens when Devin makes the catches, Braxton doesn't force things and we have zero punts blocked? Look the hell out when it all gels.
PLUS I'd like to think we'll add to that a defense that actually stops people and gets the ball right back to our offense.
True.. but we should handle Indiana.
I'll be rolling out the Carlos Hyde Bandwagon again tomorrow
An angry fan...rooting for an angry team...led by angry coaches
Ha. Rod Smith has used this game to simultaneously remind us all why we know he could be awesome and why he doesn't play that much.
I really wish Hall wasn't hurt. He and Hyde playing at the same time makes them both even more effective because of their contrasting styles. Yes, more effective than the 300+ rushing yards we have tonight.
Guys our defense isn't good. We don't have the talent and experience yet. It's a hard pill to swallow but we ought to. We can't make these players into something they're not.
Love Hyde but think Smith has a higher ceiling. Looks faster and more shifty if he can learn to secure the ball like Eddie did, game on.
D. Anthony
D-line is getting handled on pass plays!
D. Anthony

Boren is playing better defense than the real defense, UGHHH
DEB II
What the heck is going on?
Our defense is bad this year. Really bad. We're basically West Virginia, but we run instead of pass. The D looked good against MSU because MSU's offense perfectly matched up with our D's strengths. We'll look good against Wisconsin for the same reason. Anybody who can spread a little or go up tempo will own our D this year. Shouldn't be a shock. Not sure why people were thinking we'd shut out Indiana or, for that matter, anybody.
That said, I'll take wins anyway we can get them. It's a practice year anyway, but wins help recruiting and we definitely need more linebacker and safety talent.
We REALLY miss Nate Williams! No pass rush at all!
DO we have a sack tonight?
An angry fan...rooting for an angry team...led by angry coaches
Don't think so
Devin! He'd have 4 TDs tonight if he could catch consistently
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Smith.
D. Anthony
Fickle we accept your resignation!
DEB II
That would be music to my ears!!!
We have not had one call go our way the entire night.
Defense is an absolute embarrassment.
Can we say bye bye Fickell yet?
well...Fickle your the next contestant on looking for a job in 2013
2012 Beat Michigan Tail gate: UFM: "Let’s beat the sh*t out of Michigan, have a good night."
This defense is really horrible. We have given up 49 points to Indiana. In 35 seconds they put up 8 pts. They just announced it, a new record! The most points ever scored by an Indiana O on an Ohio State D.

God your awful Fickle...that pizza guy was right! Hire that guy to run the D! Ok...I'm kidding but seriously that was bad bad bad

HORRIBLE
OSU defense 2012 = Makes opposing offenses look damn good
Hey D-heads. How many players were we missing tonight on an already average D?
Our second string D should hold Indiana to less than 30. Come on.
That wasnt a win...
Still a higher scoring game than the Wisky-PSU BTT basketball game.
This^^^^
-The Aristocrats!
The worst part is, it's the same crap that keeps getting the D. That's coaching.
We just gave up 49 points to Indiana. I never thought I'd ever say that.
Clean house on the defensive staff after this season. We have to fear every team but perhaps Illinois the rest of the way with a defense like this.
The North remembers.
Urbs was out coached.
At least at the end of the game.
Urban wasn't calling defensive schemes. He might start, though.
Urban has got to be seething.
Bring back Heacock tomorrow.
The North remembers.
Yes, please.
At least we won, ugly as it was we are 7-0. Indiana got a BS call on the on-side kick, that guys foot was touching as he threw the ball. We won. Our defense sucks, thank God our offense doesn't. Hopefully we can recriut some linebackers and safeties.
DEB II
There is no reason to hate on 7-0 this year. Go Bucks!
Feels like 6-1 after that nightmare. I hear what your saying, but our D was terrible. They took the 4th quarter off. No pressure on the QB the entire game. Missed a half dozen opportunities for interceptions. Gave up huge plays. I know they're down a few guys, but tonight's effort was absurd. Feels like loss.
I agree, 7-0 is better than 0-7
DEB II
I remember someone wanting us to be more like Baylor. Well, there you go. We are Baylor North.
Anyways, I'll take the win. I knew Indiana would be rough on us because they have a passing game. Any team this season that can throw will give us fits.
