Pathetic.  Is is a requirement to play every game within 5 points but lose?

At least they’re blowing leads anymore.  

Towards the end of this game I was thinking 2023 just want going to be the year.  

Around the house doing other things and checked in from time to time.  You just know they won’t win.  They don’t have it in them.

Love Buckeye hoops but at some point I have to stop watching.  It’s too aggravating and has been for the past several years. The loss to Nebraska at home last year also inexcusable.  
 

During the MD game the TV announcers mentioned the Terps getting to all the loose balls and wanting it more.  During the Minnesota game I listened to Keels and Ron Stokes.  The latter said over and over that the gophers want it more,  And it sure appears to me that way too.  No fire.

One Columbus major news outlet responded, “if it wasn’t targeting, then parents DO NOT let your kids play football”!

But it was targeting.  Georgia should have been penalized and the player should have been escorted out.  
 

would it  have changed the game?  Who knows.  But most likely yes.  

What if the proper call of targeting was left to stand?

Play by play announcers made the obvious comments during the game.  MD got to all the loose balls.  A sign they wanted it more.

Other teams can overtake Ohio State after the Buckeyes build leads but you know the reverse can never be true.  
 

The Holtmann season is on track!

Predictable.  Yeah, this team could be tough and plays well through most of the game against good opponents only to cough it up at the end.  This is number 2 this year.  Other years it’s been the same.  Sure other teams suffer the same, once in a great while.  But I’d like to know if it happens to any other program on a regular basis as it has under Holtmann at Ohio State.

Nobody finds a way better than Ohio State to lose games.  

Roughly the same age and memories so interesting read.  My first game at the shoe was like 1980 versus Arizona St which the Buckeyes won.  I live outside of Ohio too and am ‘meh’ about the local teams.  Don’t hate them, just ‘blah’.

My most devastating football losses excluding high school in no particular order.  They were all bad.  But what they all had in common is my team should have won or were THAT close with a lot on the line.  I don’t include games where a lot was lost but the team played like crap (I.e. 2022 UM game).

1. Ga - 2022

2. Clemson - 2019

3. USC - 2009

4. MSU - 1998

5. UM - 1996

6. UM - 1986

7. USC - 1980 Rose Bowl

8. 2022 - Super Bowl

9. 1988 - Super Bowl

I don’t blame him at all.  If it were a kick of less than 40 yards, it might be hard to overlook, but 52 yards is rarely automatic.

What sticks in my craw is the hit on Harrison.  Should have been penalized and beyond that, had he been able to play the fourth quarter, things might have turned out different as well.

Any little thing might have made the outcome different in a one point loss, but the latter was pretty egregious.

Me, me me, me, meeeeeeeee!

I was thinking about all the fair criticisms of the defense but ya know, it’s not like the Ohio State defense was alone in allowing a ton of points.  After all Ga allowed 41 and TCU and um also allowed a ton of points.  

Is it me or did two men’s bb teams play a little pissed off today?

Yes he did.  Had he played like that in November, they would have won that game.

Honestly, it’s difficult to watch OSU sports these days, MBB too.  I could feel when they only came away with FGs at the end of the game they were going to blow it, even though up 14 points.  And I turned off MBB against Carolina with 6 min left cuz I knew what was coming even though they were up by double digits.  Happens in sports, but seems like it is happening with Ohio State on a regular basis.   

Targeting call reversed.  4th down call reversed.  Time out called after fake punt was run.  I’m really not interested in any more Ga BS.

The officials affected that game.  It was targeting.  It wasn’t a first down.  That was some BS.

Maybe TCU is that good BUT it sure looked like a different um team than what played Ohio St.  

Enough talk.  Action.

Well, they have a chance to prove the doubters wrong.

I don’t know anyone at this point who thinks or who thought NIL is or was a good idea.  Some online posters yes but I’ve not had one conversation where someone thought it was a great thing.

I want to crush those blue turd balls and UGA you’re in the way!!!
