I thought this was an appropriate time to start this thread with the pre game show starting.

Wouldn't it be great to have even one game where we could put in the subs because we had a big lead? Seems like a distant memory.

It's going to be extremely tough sledding for any team that wants to beat OSU. It's truly unbelievable how much talent and speed is on both sides of the ball for that team. They may have All-American players at each position outside of maybe TE and CB. And they weren't even at full strength last night.

Dontre Wilson, Jalin Marshall, and the likely #1 pick in the draft, Joey Bosa, all come back next week. I'm confident Harbaugh will draw up the best gameplan he possibly can, but it's going to take a near flawless, lights out effort to take those guys down. Especially considering now that Braxton looks like he's Percy Harvin 2.0.

Well, at least there's 3 more months to prepare....

I just think about the fact that two Hoke coached teams stayed with them the entire game, and all bets are off for that game. I know they have different QB's this time around, but seriously. Two Hoke coached teams, the ones that barely could hold themselves together against Akron and Connecticut, almost did it. That game is a thing unto itself.

If we can have some semblance of a running game by seasons end and can keep long drives going,  controlling the clock.  We might have a shot against them.   Getting Drake Johnson back and everyone else staying healthy will be key.

After comparing this on game thread with the U of M's thread, there were way more Buckeye posts. I guess there isn't really anything to talk about such a crappy game UM played.

Urban Liar @ Ohio is the perfect storm. With the way that cupboard is stocked, recruits roll in and they get coached up I fear the conference is pretty much theirs for years to come barring any "health concerns". I do believe Harbaugh will make us better but see him winning perhaps 3 of 10 if he's around that long.
