Oklahoma beat Ohio State 31-16 tonight in Ohio Stadium. Let's break down this performance into two buckets:

BAD

  • Ohio State's offensive brain trust tried to win the game with J.T. Barrett's arm and Zone 6.
    • Barrett is hesitant to commit to throwing and doesn't trust his receivers.
    • His receivers run lousy routes, can't get separation and drop passes.
    • None of this is new or surprising.
  • Ohio State's offensive brain trust ran Barrett (17) more than it ran J.K. Dobbins and Mike Weber, combined (16)
    • What the hell
    • That makes no sense at all
    • Why would they do that. Why would anyone do that.
    • Whyyyyy
  • Right tackle is a liability
    • #TweetsFrom2016
  • The defensive back seven was torched for the second consecutive week
    • Richard Lagow and Peyton Ramsey had 420 yards passing last week
    • Baker Mayfield had 387 yards passing tonight
    • That's 807 yards passing allowed in two weeks. 
  • Ohio State did not control the R
    • Oklahoma got rolling in the 3rd quarter and the Buckeyes looked deflated.
    • The Silver Bullets allowed 28 2nd half points for the first time since 2012, when Indiana scored 35 in Ohio State's 52-49 victory in Bloomington.
  • It was very hard to understand exactly what Ohio State was trying to do offensively or defensively

GOOD

  • The weather was i n c r e d i b l e. How about that weather, folks.
  • Punting and kicking seem solid!
