Weekly questions……
1.) Will OSU slow down Silas Redd and hold him under 100 yards?
Yes, but apparently the OSU defense had never seen the wildcat before this game.
2.) Will OSU score any TDs?
Yes, but could have really used one more.

The season is almost over and it can’t end any faster for our beloved Ohio State Buckeyes. Off the field issues, poor performances by the coaching staff and players, and inconsistent play on the field by the “rotating” team leaders have left us where we are today. Where are we? Sitting pretty with a smooth 6-4 record and a more than realistic chance of losing the final two games of the season to finish 6-6. Thanks poor decision-making of college students (tattoos…smh) and adults (covering up tattoo bartering exercise with lame excuses).
Continuing in our series of who we would start if we were Coach Fickell, we now take a look at the Wide Receiver corps.
Where to start…
Well, this probably the youngest and most inexperienced group of wide receivers that I can remember in my time watching the Buckeyes. This doesn’t mean that there isnt talent available, but the proven commodity of DeVier Posey wont be eligible (Thanks Tats!!!) until Game 6 of the season.
The YNBA has been pretty quiet this season and most of the offseason. I know that the readers of MotSaG are totally curious of the whereabouts of the man that produces such fine literary desserts (Sarcasm level = High). Well, I wont lie to you. I have been trying to enjoy this season. You know…really savor it. It has been a good season thus far with mostly ups and some obvious downs, but the bottom line is this is the reason we love college football and our bucks. It brings us joy on Saturday afternoons and can ruin our weekends just as easily.
Fantastic Defense and Terrelle Pryor take care of business on Saturday against the Hoosiers.
The Good
Terrelle Pryor with his first 300-yard game as a Buckeye (334 yards to be exact). Not really concerned about him running, as he really didnt need to pull the ball down and gain yardage. Surely, TP will need to use his legs next week in Madison.
Seriously…how could I not let this gem speak for itself.
Terrible Music. I am still in disbelief that anyone from Oregon can have this bad of taste in music even in a trash-talking expose…
Spelling. There is an ‘e’ at the end of Purdue.
So…times are slow…the Champions League has decided it is only for teams that can play defense (FU Liverpool and your inability to NOT give up a goal in the last 8 minutes of play)
This is the time of the year where an incredible void of no football games and the bowl selections have created what most people (including yours truly) cannot stand in the least bit…
“Message Board Heroes”
OSU has them…they talk about the school’s eleventy-billion national championships that happened before they were born or how they were there when “The Horseshoe” was dedicated…or maybe the lore of OSU Heisman Trophies from yesteryear.
Well…there are 3 games left…
Just three more games of potential offensive play-calling ridicule, certain offensive execution angst, probable instant replay tomfoolery, elation toward a stellar defense, and quite honestly a quick glance at a watch to say “Wha’ Happened?”
I have often referred to a great orator and scholar on the not so recently demised DeathCabforWoody who uttered a quote that can be referenced in almost everything we do in life…
“Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face”
~Michael Tyson esq.
I say hit the snooze bar for about two years…
I am not sure how many people within the Buckeye Nation can actually stomach a full Colin Cowherd radio program, but he let out a few ratings-grabber craptastic statements this morning about the state of UM Football program’s competitiveness next year and going forward…
A couple of semi-accurate paraphrased quotes…
“Rodriguez is a great offensive coach, and all he needs is another good recruiting year to get a defense which can stand up to Ohio State.”
“Rich Rodriguez will be Tressel’s Worst Nightmare.”
Now all of us know better than to believe these shenanigans (at least in the short term).
The week of impending doom is upon us. The Boys from Troy will invade the Horseshoe this weekend. From what we at MotSaG can tell, this looks to be an epic beatdown just waiting to happen. I mean really it is the perfect storm for a team to come into Columbus and win with a freshman quarterback in front of 105,000 crazed and mildly intoxicated OSU fans.
So the burnout of another season took it’s toll on the MotSaG…or more particularly YNBA…
Surprised? Not Really. It is tough to come up with brilliant material on a weekly basis when nothing is going on in the college football landscape.
