Complete Collapse by the defense

 

No coincidence that it has been since Orr got hurt.

 

Very fair point. How much of the OSU D issue in 1st half was from losing its top corner (Okudah)??

[young guns]

25 didnt even try to wrap up. Just leaned on him.

The talent gap is everywhere. They wore us down the same way we do to the dregs of the Big Ten.

The biggest talent gap is at QB. Would love to see Mertz QB the bowl game, to see if he is for real.

 

Won't happen. Coan is just "Wisconsin Quarterbacky" enough to keep the starting job for the bowl game and probably next year as well. Kind of a bummer, as I too would like to see Mertz get some playing time at some point.

This defense is dead the second time this has happened against Ohio State. No dline push poor tackling by everyone. Something needs to change.

[adambr2]

What a pathetic, weak call. This officiating crew is terrible at their job.

Yep, very ticky tack.

Bad tackling was happening in the first half too. But they were getting more pressure on Fields then to negate it.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

6 carries by JT in the 2nd half. That isn't ideal.

[adambr2]

Well they are in 4 down territory. They need to score a TD in about 2 minutes or less to make this remotely interesting.

1st half was Coan and Taylor making huge runs at opportune times.

[burnzy24]

Orr getting hurt and the complete lack of offense the 2nd half killed the defense.

[adambr2]

Chase Young was offsides on the snap, but no need to call that, you haven't called anything else on OSU this half.

[CheezWizHed]

Where is JT???

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Yeah, those draw plays to Garrett Groshek are probably not going to be winning football.

[Fear The Chorizo]

Why are they handing the ball off here at all?

[adambr2]

Zero creatively on offense this half. They saw that 3rd and 2 dive play coming a mile away.

Sitting on the sidelines because grosheck is the receiving back. Stupid.

[lcbj68c]

3rd and 2...who knew the inside run to Groshek was coming? Show of hands...

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

So you run a pitch to Chase Young's side, and don't even lay a hand on him? Unbelievable.

[adambr2]

Zero offense this half. Great call on 3rd and 2 to hand it to Groshek, fellas.

[Fear The Chorizo]

4th and 2 and they run right at their all world d end with no blockers...yeesh

Yeah, after creativity in the first half and all game at MN, they suddenly went bland. Same last time at Ohio

[pacopete4]

Cool playbook Chryst.

[lcbj68c]

Coaching and scheming. That's the difference. 2 guys blocking 4. Plain and simple
