Game Thread: Ohio State @ Northwestern

[Sox33OSU]

I'll be there for game day. Anybody going for the game? I will probably go depending on ticket price.

Wish I was gonna be there. Northwestern has a great campus and I'd love to go to a night game there for sure.

since man landed on the moon, Ohio State is 30-2 vs Northwestern. Northwestern's only two victories came in 2004 (over an 8-4 Ohio State team) and 1971 (over a 6-4 Ohio State team)

also since man landed on the moon, Northwestern has only finished in the AP Top 25 three times....1995 (#8), 1996 (#15) and 2012 (#17)

yea but nw is not the same push over they have been in the past. Im pulling for the under dog in this one.

I'm a nw season ticket holder. I'll be there Saturday. I can't wait. Everybody thinks it's going to be a blowout but Vegas line is still pretty low at 7. 87% of betting public is currently taking osu. Hoping for a close game.

[PIBuckeye]

“I spent a full day with Urban Meyer and Ohio State on Wednesday and just got to sit down and watch tape with him and Braxton Miller. I got to sit in on the QB meetings and just got a really good feel for where they are, at least Offensively, as a program. They are so far beyond where they were a year ago it’s remarkable. I knew that going in having watched 5 copy tapes from last year and 2 from this year. He’s made enormous improvement in terms of his mechanics as a passer and just his basic understanding of the Offense. And then, you look at the weapons around him – they’ve improved – Devin Smith has gotten on the same page with Braxton and you can just tell watching the tape that they know where the other is going to be…”

“The run game is going with Carlos Hyde and that’s exactly what Urban Meyer wants. Everyone seems to have this misconception about the spread offense that it is basketball on grass. But really he wants to be a physical inside running team. And then, you’ve got some young guys who are starting to step up and make some plays and some young speed being injected into the offense. Defensively there are some holes, but Offensively as long as Braxton is dialed in and knows what he is doing and doesn’t get completely confused by what Northwestern is throwing at him, physically he is as good and as talented as Any QB out there, and I think … people will get an understanding of how improved he is as a passer this year. And as his knee gets stronger and he gets more confident in it, it won’t surprise me if at the end of the year we’re talking about him as the most complete College Quarterback in the game this Season.”

Ivan Maisel’s response: “Wow –that’s uh- that is quite an endorsement.”

McShay: “It’s Scary.”

I am not nearly as nervous for this one then the Wisky game. Is that bad?

I just havent seen Northwestern play this season much, I just hope OSU is on tonight.

I'm a little nervous because of the weather. I'm hoping it has cleared up some in Thugcago.

 

[Shanemansj13]

I think it could be a shootout. Especially with Bryant out, but hopefully the D shows out tonight

 

[BTSBuckeye]

Miller time!
