Without the two fumbles this game isn’t even close. Penn State’s offense did nothing when they actually had to do a full drive or series. Easily could have been 28-3 or something like that. In fairness to PSU, they did have a 75 yard drive for their first TD. So say 28-7 if they don't get those 2 short fields, or maybe 35-7 if the fist fumble at the 1 foot line doesn't happen.

So my point still is take away those two fumbles and this game isn’t as close as the score shows. I know turnovers are part of the game but without those Penn State’s offense really didn’t do anything against our defense, much different score.

The only remaining questions I have is; did Haskell Garret, Josh Alibi, or Mathew Jones get to the playing field? They were game-time decisions. To what extent did Jonathon Cooper contribute?
I expect, we will be much healthier, facing our final victim of the regular season.

Jonathan Cooper is only going to play in one more game this season so that he can redshirt and come back for a 5th year next year.

Here’s to TTTUN week and if you like the bums up north, I hope we break that poopy score board in that dump of a stadium. I get disturbed when posters are shy about their feelings. Just say what you have to say, and get it done. You'll feel much better.

^^ The spin is that the conservative game plan was the major factor in the Buckeyes only winning by 11 points when it was clearly the turnovers that took away 7 Buckeye points and gave Penn State 14 extra points. They should have covered the 18 points easily (except for the turnovers). Penn St. was not very impressive in my book but, I think I like their back up QB better than the starter.

I kinda felt it was conservative play calling if previous games were anything to go by.
