They were alabamming in fine form no doubt.
Well after he went down they only had two possessions and they were successful in one of them and not in the other. And the second half prior to the injury they were not successful in any of the first stringers possessions. 
Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.

You convinced me.  Losing their starter was good for them.

you overly sensative Buckeyes crack me up.  Don’t ever change.

Lulz if you think that Ute offense was anywhere near the same after the starting qb went down.  But congrats anyway any win is a good win.
The man played one full possession and they scored a touchdown on it.

I mean they scored more points in 1.5 drives with the backup QB than they did in the rest of the half with the starter.  It's not like the Utah offense did jack after halftime prior to the injury.

The problem was their entire defensive strategy was hoping OSU turned the ball over in the red zone.

Obviously their starting QB would have scored two TDs on that drive considering he led...checks notes...zero TD drives in the half

They were explaining that they were in cover-2 and it's like, really? 

If you're gonna lose slow in a tie game, you'll definitely lose. Gotta dial it up, and if you give up a quick 7, well, you got one more scoring chance.

It was 28-14 when i left in the 2Qtr and 35-21 in a whole 8 minute drive over to a friends.Fun game to watch and Utah had 10 pts in the 2nd half.I missed it but the Buckeyes evidently lost a fumble in the end zone.Stroud also threw a pick in the red zone after that.Entertaining, UTAH was a tough out they remind me of MSU.Well where the hell did the season go can't wait for next season

I guess HCs everywhere should start putting in their backup QBs late in games.

Obviously nobody is saying that. But he played one full drive, and scored Utah's lone touchdown of the second half. They literally could not have done anything more if their starter had stayed in the game.

That Last TD snag JSN had where he rotated his head from left to right looking over his shoulder while keeping his feet in was...... just impressive.Hope Utah makes it back - solid program

Jaxon Smith-Njigba has set another record in Pasadena.


After breaking David Boston's single-season receiving yardage record in the first half of the Rose Bowl, the sophomore star surpassed Terry Glenn's record of 253 receiving yards in a single game, set against Pittsburgh in 1995.

Smith-Njigba's 10th catch of the game, which also tied Parris Campbell's 90 catches in 2018 for the single-season receptions record, gave him 258 yards to set the new all-time mark.


Smith-Njigba's total also broke the Rose Bowl record for receiving yards in a single game.

Someone gonna be ponying up for his likeness,i count broke 3 records and tied one as a true Sophmore

Their backup QB was a walk on from a town  so small that their players have to play both ways, offense and defense. Pretty big step up in competition.

HS has like 200 kids and at least looks pretty remote on the map. Honestly, they have pretty solid roster numbers considering that, though who knows how deep that goes. (As a dorky aside, kids going both ways is more common than one might think at bigger schools)

One thing I don't get, they had a backup, a bit of a run-first guy, who was a former four-star. Was even listed on the bowl depth chart. Wonder what happened to him.
