#3 Ohio State (1-0) vs. #1 Texas (0-1) Post Game

[betarhoalphadelta]

11:37 tee time

was hoping for rain, dammit

I saved the tee time for tomorrow. 

Today the only thing I need to leave the house for is to refill a CO2 tank at the homebrew store. 

Tonight we're doing virtual happy hour with our friends who moved to NC. But I'll be able to have CFB on the TV muted in the background for that.

I also have a tee time for tomorrow but rain in the forecast - might get cancelled 
and the course will close in a couple months

not much positive about Thursday night games but, that's one of them

Congrats to the Buckeyes.  Told ya.  Best of luck the rest of the season.

Arch played rough at times, but looked great at others.  The Ohio State defense really played well.  The OSU offense played decent but those spectacular TD catches were the difference in the game.

Geez, just scrolling SM and they're ripping Arch.  I thought he played kinda rough....like a new starter in a big game at a hostile venue.  Still made some great plays, I think he will grow a lot.

The amount of pressure of being:

• A first time starter
• For the #1 team in the country
• In a marquee game with EVERYONE watching, GameDay there for Corso's farewell, Big Noon there, etc
• On the road
• Having a last name that makes everyone expect you to be Archie, Peyton, Eli all rolled into one

Yeah, he'll get better

It's hard to give a shit about most of this.  He actually wasn't a first time starter, he's started two other games previously in his career at Texas, and had significant playing time in 3 other games as well.

Most of the rest of this was true of Sayin as well.  He was a an actual true, real first-time starter.  And he was playing for the #3, defending national champs, in front of the home crowd for the first time ever.  Sayin just performed better.

And Arch has been dealing with his last name for many years, this is nothing new.

He just failed badly.  I hope he gets better because he's all we have.
