Hmmmph.


A team who lost it's season's goals in its last game of the season is playing poorly vs an inferior opponent.  Who would have thought?


All I'm gonna ask is this:  would Utah have 35 points in the first half if this was a playoff game? 
This style of supposition is always dumb, and it reminds me of a guy on an old Badger board. He hated one QB and liked the backup. Every game the starter one the backup definitely would've won. Every game the starter lost, the backup also would have won. (The next year, the backup stated

In imaginary games, they always go like the the person wants. Would it have gone that way, I dunno? If you asked me if any team in a top-10 matchup not involving the Bama or OSU offense would get 35 in a half, I would guess they would not. 

The last time I saw OSU's defense, it was in a de facto playoff game, goals still in play, it got tagged for 8 yards per play. Somehow, that defense found a way to sign together for stops. Somehow, this goal less OSU offense found the motivation to run up 600 yards on a top-15 defense that knocks the hell out of people. How are they doing this with an excuse not to?

I'd like it if the defense didn't constantly look like a sack of poop

Utah shoulda gone for it. 

I mean, it won't matter because OSU is gonna score here, but they still should've.

Left too much time on the clock considering OSU can't kick off

Never squib. 

The clock doesn't start when the ball hits the ground. So you're just kicking short and giving up field position.

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.

Considering Ohio State brought only 62 players out of the allowable 84,
Started only six starters of 11 on defense, and eight of the 11 on offense, and had a third string tight end start and play the whole game at linebacker, I’m actually pretty impressed with the big victory.  You Slappy‘s don’t get it but it’s actually good for the conference. 
Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.
