Penn Shtate Recap – Questions Answered…Painfully

Sunday, November 20th, 2011

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. 3.) Over/Under passing attempts for Braxton set at 8. What ...

Penn Shtate Preview

Thursday, November 17th, 2011

(This was post was supposed to be posted tomorrow, but thanks to the site's EIC fat fingering, it went live early. Either way, enjoy. - ed) 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 ...

If I Was Coach Fickell [Wide Receiver Edition]

Tuesday, August 30th, 2011

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 ...

Penn State Preview (Why is this a night game again?)

Friday, November 12th, 2010

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 ...

Indiana plays against real defense..loses. Color Buckeye fans, as surprised

Sunday, October 10th, 2010

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 ...

Trash-Talking Youtube Videos with Misspellings and Terrible Music Get Their Own Posts this Bowl Season

Monday, December 21st, 2009

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. At least, I am ...

MotSaG’s West Coast Bunker: Speed and Swagger…A study in Oregon and OSU Fandom Stupidity

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

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 ...

Week #12: Michigan Preview and Open Thread

Friday, November 20th, 2009

Previewing the OSU Michigan game should be seen as a privilege to the blogging community on both sides of the border. I know that I am normally a sarcastic bastard that seems to revel in the sports misery and unabashed stereotypes for our regional sometimes national foes (jorts, corn ...

Negotiating Penn Hate from MotSaG’s West Bunker

Thursday, November 5th, 2009

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 ...

Week #7: Purdue – Preview and Open Thread

Friday, October 16th, 2009

Last week was like an appetizer prior to the main course (PSU, Iowa, UM) of the schedule. Unfortunately with the way Purdue is playing this season, this game will most likely be the "dry side salad," which you need because of the tailgating food you have been shoveling into ...

MotSaG’s West Coast Bunker Commentary – UM Owns Big10 Countdown Clock Started by Cowherd

Thursday, October 1st, 2009

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 ...

Stray Bullets from MotSaG’s West Coast Bunker

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

The week of impending doom has passed us by and clubbed us like a baby seal. A tough loss to USC and an apparently media-unfriendly and unimpressive win against Toledo (Man..How bad is Colorado...really?) equates to a steady drop in the polls. Illinois is just around the corner ...

Thursdays from MotSaG’s West Coast Bunker…

Thursday, September 10th, 2009

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 ...

Is this thing on…

Tuesday, July 21st, 2009

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. Here is a quick list of 20 ...
