that play is SO poorly blocked, it's hard to tell it's an offensive play
if McSorely was reading the play, it wasn't a poor read
If he wasn't reading the play and simply handing off, it was supposed to give the appearance of a read/option to decoy the defense
Obviously can't determine intent by the film.  Gotta take the player's and coach's word for the intent from the post game comments
Yes, and the only thing they said about intent was they thought they saw something in OSU defensive alignment.  But you can attack that multiple ways.
If it was a straight run, even the worst coach would not try to attack it with a read option that had no option, because you would be taking a knife to a gunfight, by trying to block 7 guys with only 6.  Clearly, the option to keep was immediately the better option, but it was closed off by OSU instantly.

Omg dude.where is there post game analysis?  Your grasping at straws.  Read the ONLY post game expert analysis posted above.   
When your wrong your wrong.  
You are right about one thing, and all the talking heads agree.  It was not a good play selection in that situation.  It called for a perfectly executed O-Line against a much better defensive line.

When you can show me expert analysis ( not just talking bobble heads) that agrees with your theory, I will think your on to something.
I just posted definitive film analysis that proves what I am saying.  Do you still dispute it?

attacking it with a read/option look causes the defense to account for the QB keep, the QB throwing in the flat or to one of the two WRs on the left.  It takes 4 or 5 defenders out of the straight run play

like I said, you can't tell the intent of the play, but it's possible the read/option was merely window dressing for a straight run up the gut

Ok Super.   Watch this a couple times, every single player.
Then tell me if this is a draw play, with a straight face lol.   It’s not about who is right, it’s about the film.  It tells you all you need to know.

No, it’s about what the egos here have turned into. People on this board used to talk football and approach each other with respect ,even when their perception of reality was on different sides of the aisle. Now, the second someone disagrees, it turns into name calling and mocking. It’s honestly sad. It’s a reflection of what social media has done to society.
I have no idea what the play was supposed to be. I do know Ohio State blows it up, which tells me it was a bad play call and a well executed play and defensive call.

Well your partially correct, about the society part. When presented with facts, and film to back it up, people will just create their own narrative.  Ego has nothing to do with the person presenting facts and evidence.   
But thanks for your lesson master.

This is the thing.  The play call is irrelevant if it's blocked poorly.

I love how everyone here can't even come to a consensus on the play call here, but so many just chalk it up to a bad play call.


Not all good play calls succeed.  It could be a perfectly-chosen play and still fail.  If you knew what the coaches knew and saw what they saw, those of you lambasting the call might've made the same exact call 100 out of 100 times.


Idk if it's ego or MMQBing or what, but it's silly.

If this threatens one's manliness, there are probably some thunder sticks that can be provided
Entirely fair. I didn't like what I wrote about pom poms. I just feel that way. But thunder sticks suck, too. Maybe I'm just against mass produced props. Not all props, though. The individualized constumes are great. Those and clever signs do a lot for the game ... that I like.
