not buying TCU as a legit top 15 team. Ohio State will blow them out imo.

I like how you think. Make it so Number 1.

I would like you to be right. But we haven’t seen OSU play anything more than a scrimmage.   
I see a close game.  35-28 type of game.

I'm afraid I'm going to be really annoyed with this game. It's getting hyped up, Game Day will be there, two explosive offenses, and two top Defenses. Should be an explosive battle. But I just feel one of these teams is going a 3 score lead, and the other team will kinda throw in the towel and we will have a

45-10 type game.

Hoping the Young Bucks are on the winning side.
As long as the Buckeyes win, I don't mind being wrong.
Really entertaining game.

This was an entertaining game.   Probably, the second best game today amongst good team.  LSU/AU was really good. A lot of kicking yourself if your TCU and tOSU I suppose if watching the film, more so for TCU.

It was a fun game.  I was surprised TCU threw the ball 40 times, it was effective but also what lost them the game.

I think OSU more forced them to throw it 40 times. If you factor out sacks, one insane run and kneel downs, TCU was at 4.2 YPC. That’s not gonna keep things moving.
(I can’t recall how pass-happy they’ve been in this offense)

I don't know if it's out of character, but I was guessing with a youngish quarterback against a fierce pass rush, they would be a bit more conservative, and I especially thought their QB would run more.  What would the game have looked like if they went a bit more Tressel?

That’s a pretty spot on prediction.

Ehhh, if you're at that much of a talent disadvantage, you've probably got to take bigger swings. OSU's pass rush is fearsome, but so is the run D.
I'm guessing if the game was more Tress for TCU, they score a little less. It still all swung with those mistakes (unless the Tress part is not making mistakes, but that's another matter).

 Update: so the actual answer was somewhere between both of our outlook. 
 I went back and watched two or three of their early drives. They were basically just running a lot of RPOs,  using screens and super quick passes as extensions of the running game.  So basically, they were using the QB into things, with long hand off thatgo down as passes.

Makes sense.  Buckeyes would want the quarterback to throw, so he kept reading pass.
