OT: Buckeyes-Trojans
-
USC doesn't seems faster then the Buckeyes. Pretty good game so far. I'd love to put an L on these guys.

Agree on all three counts.

USC just lacks speed period. Lost it all to the pros and injury. It isn't like OSU is playing a overly good game either. They just have cut out the stupid errors.

Or survived their stupid errors.

In this case, it fits. Which teams sucks the least wins. Sometimes that is how it is. The Browns will have their wins that way as well or think Steelers Super Bowl win a few years ago.
You can't always win pretty.

Does anyone else picture RestInPeace as looking like this:
-
God...Terrelle Pryor has the WORST mechanics of any QB I've ever seen. I'm no QB guru, but how bad his mechanics are stands out even to me.
Why does everyone seem to think he's going to be good? So far, all I've seen is a guy who can run fast and heave the ball a long way. Michael Vick could do that as well.
Every pass seems to just float up there, and his accuracy is...suspect to say the least.
-
Pryor sucks. He has no poise, makes stupid mistakes, and can't read defenses. Tressell had some pretty shitty play calling tonight too. Too damn conservative.
-
eff you Tressel. You pansy wimp. You had those flops, but you decided to suck a little worse than USC. I am sick of it. Every FREAKING YEAR. That sad sack wimps out against BCS talent. Against a freshmen QB.
Either fire Bollman or get lost man.

Barkley will get all the praise, but Joe McKnight and center Kris O'Dowd deserve most of the credit for that winning drive.
Here's what I wrote about McKnight back in June:
Joe McKnight is the big play guy [in USC's backfield]. Because of that, he's frequently compared to Reggie Bush, but they're actually not all that similar. McKnight lacks Bush's 4.3 speed, but he's a much more physical runner. Though he has a habit of dancing too much, he rarely is brought down by the first defender, indicating that he could develop into an elite inside/outside runner.
What Bush and McKnight do share is the ability to cut & change directions without losing any speed. That should make McKnight a dynamic return man, but he's shown an unfortunate habit of muffing punts. He'll need to win the return job back and show improvement to keep his draft stock high.
Though only a junior, McKnight likely will declare after this season. A turf toe injury affected his game last year, so I doubt he'll return as a senior and risk having his stock drop due to injury. Assuming he stays healthy, I think he'll go in the late 1st/early 2nd round.
Looks like he's permanently been taken off return duty, but the power he displayed tonight will do a lot to rehabilitate his draft stock. The 1st round seems like a strong possibility for him.

C'mon, did you really expect Ohio State to win that game? That is THE most overrated team in college football, and Pryor is the most overrated QB in college football. On a Browns note, I see the game tomorrow playing out similar to this game. The Browns winning in a close one in a similar fashion.
-
Does Pryor ever audible at the line of scrimmage? When the safety is creeping up to the line, you may want to audible to the slot receiver on that side, but that dumbass Pryor can't read defenses.
And if Ohio Sate has such a good kicker with a powerful leg, how come Tressell didn't attempt any long fg's when he had a chance, instead of punting the ball deep???

Great drive, from 2nd and 19 at their own 5 to a TD. Huge. I agree that it was Joe McKnight's drive... but can you imagine a true freshman in that setting under those circumstances? He did himself proud.Shep - enlighten me; what is it about Pryor that makes people go gaga?

Sure, we should of won. Between Tress,Bollman and Pryor, OSU takes another loss to a BCS potential team. Pryor is becoming Coopers Belisorry.

This game was rediculous all the way around. It showed us that Pryor has no Quarterbacking skills at all, he throws short passes at peoples feet and long passes short or long. I mean I wanted to believe he was gonna work out but I have a bad feeling Buckeye fans are in for a bad season and at least one more to come thanks to this kid. No wonder all the junior talent left last season, they saw the writing all the wall. And I guess I wouldnt be a true Buckeye fan if I didnt mention some suspect penalties...but seriously the Refrees were pretty good in this game. As far as the USC freshman it makes me almost ill that he'll get the credit for this win he passes for less than 50% for under 200 yards and and Pick...quick make him an all american. Okay thats my "rant"

So. xxxxing. What.
I'll take Peyon Manning, Tom Brady, Kurt Warner, and any other of a zillion pocket passers or just scramblers over someone who can reel off 100 yards on the ground, but can't hit shit downfield.
Falling in love with a guys running ability is like falling in love with a huge arm and zero other skillset.
Pryor doesn't seem to have improved much from last season.

You know, as bad as Bellisari was (I'd hold my breath every time he threw a pass), he still seems to be head and shoulders above Pryor.
I hope they can sign someone who can actually play QB this year.

I was being facetious. Sadly, hundreds, no, thousands, of Ohio State fans will give you that response. And mean it.
