Early Games Thread

Have to be a goldfish here and forget. Just ball out. You were wearing them out. Now go back out and put some points on the board.

Fucking big ten is the stupidest conference of idiot coaches and players. What was that ridiculous call. You're running over them. DO WHAT YOU DO

Wimsatt is really bad. What a back-breaking turn of events. 

On the MSU v Nebraska broadcast, there was a shot of an 〽️ fan in the stands wearing binoculars and a sign saying "Michigan Sign Scout" and "Free Stalions" on it.  I'm not recording that game.  Did anybody get a screen capture if it?

How do they not even review that for targeting? I don’t think it would have been targeting, but OSU always seems to get the benefit of the doubt. If it was Michigan, the officials would have reviewed it.

Gashing them running the ball and got cute. The bitches always manage to get bailed out. 

just keep feeding mannangai

Gene Staratore is not correct. That’s a defenseless receiver. Targeting should have been the call. 

It takes patience. People don't really have the patience to just run over Ohio State. Disciplined and no mistakes, hard for Rutgers to do.

At halftime against Rutgers Ryan Day called his brothers and told them to skedaddle to New Jersey.

It’s funny that we are discussing OSU (the best team in the country) getting bailed out bc Rutger is so bad. It becomes more clear why they are more interested in UM than their own team. 

It made zero sense that Rutgers made that stupid play for pick six. RB is doing well. Keep doing that. 

What the heck is Rutgers doing?  RB #5 is carrying the team down the field.  Yet every time they get inside the 10, they get cute and don't run #5.  It's happened at least 3 times now.

Rutgers should be up at least 16-7 right now.

Rutgers are moving the ball again even through they are limited on offense. Glad to see it. 

OSU is having to sell out with safeties to stop the run. Leaves open a big play in the air... but Wimsatt

Rutgers QB has no sense for defensive players. He keeps throwing into coverage. He is terrible. 

Rutger should add someone to their offensive staff whose only job is to veto any plays where Wimsatt is called on to throw the ball.

Pass play?  Nope, VETO!

If OSU wins by 5, trust me, this will feel very close to a loss for that fanbase. TBF, Rutgers is the team that played Michigan closest this year as far as the final score goes.

This game feels not unlike last week's against Wisconsin where OSU can't really do anything but the other team's QB is so bad that they'll just squeeze them into some bad plays and win ugly.  This Ohio St. team looks about as weak a #1 seed as I've seen in a while.  

Oh Rutgers….3 possessions inside the 5 yard line only to come away with a total of 9 points.  Then driving the field and throwing a pick six….such a Rutger thing to do.  Maybe Day is paying Schiano to throw the game.

schadenfreude hat trick, ND, MSU and OSU losses, still in play. 

false start missed

That looked like a false start wtf

OSU getting bailed out 

How the fuck do you miss that false start.YOU ARE STANDING RIGHT THERE. it's literally your only job

Blatent false start there.

Welp called that. Homeboy jumped back 5 fucking yards.

Every B10 ref should have their breath checked pre-game for the smell of "Just for Men" hair dye and Ryan Day's scrotum.

double post, ooops.

OSU will win this, obviously.  But OSU really can be hammered on the ground.  Rutgers has zero passing threat, and OSU still can't stop RU's run game.   

While, given the ongoing witch hunt, we all want Michigan to win 50-0 tonight...I would not mind at all if JH decided to use this as a game to run 85% of the time and just get the o-line game reps running the ball.  We did that a lot last year, and have not done it yet this year.  That would pay off at the end of the month against OSU.   

i mean even I saw that how could the refs miss that

That was so clearly a false start

Man OSU still getting that good ref treatment. No targeting on the int and no false start. 🤦🏻‍♂️

I bet Nebraska and Rutger would beat #12 Mizzou. Lol

Refs and dumb ass Rutgers offense is going to bailout OSU. 

ND-Clemson is low-key one of my biggest "root for the meteor" games all year.
