One ☝🏼 player has done more to save this Season than any other: LT D. Jackson - who stepped out for first time to play arguably one of the top 3 most important positions on a team AND OSU HAD ABSOLUTELY NO OTHER OPTIONS‼️
The hustle of Sonny Styles getting in front of and screening Tre Wisner from making a tackle on Jack's scoop & score should NOT be overlooked. Go BUCKS! 🅾🌰🏈
Honestly sonny doesn't seem to enjoy playing linebacker I could be wrong but you can see how Cody attacks each play I don't see that same intensity from sonny at that position.
Sonny gave up both of texas touchdowns he got burnt on the 1st one granted the back was faster and the 2nd one he blitzed and let the back run right past him leaving him wide open, even if you are supposed to blitz as a linebacker that RB is your responsibility you don't stay with the blitz you account for that man in coverage I'm not hating or being negative but he's leaving his responsibility in the defense just go back and watch both those scores then decide if I'm wrong I know this game and everyone has assignments I like sonny just feel like he can give more.
@@LanceGreene888 While you are correct in your assessment, if you look at the Buckeyes' defense as a whole, the only perceived weakness is Sonny in pass coverage, but I'll NEVER take him off the field because of all the other things he does. There is no defense that can take EVERYTHING away. Go BUCKS! 🅾🌰🏈
Ryan Day's Top-5 record takes a major boost. If Ohio State beats Notre Dame, Ohio Sate would be the only team in history to beat 5 Top-5 teams in one season.
Will Howard is a GREAT leader. Even if he doesn't have all the talent in the world, he is a GAMER and plays with that big chip on his shoulder. Love it.
JTT and Captain Jack's Bosa-like hand techniques have made the difference the last three games. Note how powerfully Captain Jack swipes down on the defensive tackle's arms before he makes the strip and score. Downs is a laser guided missile. Wonder what set T. Henderson off?
@@larrykeltto1141 Yes, but they were not very good at getting off blocks during the regular season due to poor hand techniques from what I could tell, then all of a sudden a switch was flipped for the Tennessee game and it has continued since.
I couldn't help but wonder if someone said something blasphemous about the Lord. It seems like the only thing that would make him react that way. (That was my first thought anyway.)
The Gee Scott play was reminiscent of Curtis Samuel getting 9 yards on 3rd and 10 in the 2016 TTUN game. Just a huge play with unbelievable individual effort.
That was by far the best game JT and Jack played together. JT was everywhere the whole game even after he was hurt and Jack always plays better at the end of the year. Enjoy your show much more when you talk about the game and players without getting off subject too much. Great show!
Judkins is a tough runner. He ran 9 yards like a man on the first TD. Judkins threw a huge block to spring Henderson on the drive where Trey got the unsportsmanlike penalty I believe.
I was at the 2002 Natty game! It felt like a home game and the Buckeyes were hitting so hard they should have called the police for assault and battery!! Go Bucks!!
It requires Unsung heroes to win the big games. jackson and Gee Scott definitely played important roles in securing the victory. I admit i wrote him off early in the year as a contributor.
Not enough talk about how Day and Frye finally have gotten away from Zone block running plays. Especially, once they got away from the Keystone Cop-like stretch zone plays, our big guy's performance started turning around on the LOS.
Here’s the catch 22 for Buckeye quarterbacks, if the bucks lose the QB sucks, if they play great in a win it’s because they have such good athletes around them. Never get the credit they are due.
It's not all our QB's Will Howard is a good product of our talent but could you imagine how many yards Smith would've had if Stroud was under center or even Fields
@ Orlando Pace was HIM. Our big men need more recognition for how amazing some of these young men are, people understand how hard it is to play both OG & OT.
@@JayBee-u5r The Heisman IS NOT the award to worry about for linemen. THINK, the Joe Moore, Lombardi and Outland awards. Specific awards for linemen. ALL REAL football fans know this
If I can nit-pick just a bit .. why didn't Day and Kelly design plays to get JJ open? I know Texas keyed on JJ, but it's not like Oregon wasn't aware of him. The second play of the Oregon game, JJ was disguised out of the backfield and scored .. and a couple drives later, a play was created to make him .. wide open .. to the right side of the end zone as Howard rolled to the left and the other two WR drew their DB and the Safety with them. Why weren't these type of plays created vs Texas? Get your talent in space. That is what Day and Kelly are known for. Go Bucks!
While I did play football at a decently high level and have a ton of expertise in games of strategy, I have yet to see the all 22 and wouldn't say my expertise lies in football strategy. The basics of any sound strategy is to exploit weaknesses with your strengths. Texas' probably has the best secondary in the country and their weakness on D was their linebackers. That wasn't the case with Tennessee and Oregon; UT was soft in the secondary and Oregon was just ok. Texas had the scheme and the dudes to shut down JJ which opened up Carnell and the running backs. From what I'm hearing, Texas played a bunch of cover 2 shell which is all the rage in the NFL right now. Cover 2 shell is a strategy which puts a huge emphasis in covering the field beyond ~8 yards down field which ultimately leaves the area from scrimmage to ~8 yards open. Beating it requires long drives and a lot of patience. So, long story short from an advanced amateur eye; they didn't design plays to get JJ open because those plays wouldn't have worked as well as what they did. Also, penalties killed us and kept them in the game allowing them to stick to their plan.
Re Will in Mich game: he came back on the field missing only one play after that hit if I remember correctly. If so, that concussion protocol must have been awfully brief. Know he was adamant about getting back on the field
Jack Sawyer and JT were absolute menaces all game. If you look at the whole goalie stand Jack blew up his guy on inside outside and ran through him into Quinn’s lap
Naa the Maurice clarette play is the best in college history. Your senior qb isn't very good and throws what should be the game losing interception and your star freshman rb chases him down and takes the ball back from an NFL bound and who will be an all time nfl great defensive player and tou do that in the championship game and then they go on to barely win. Hands down best play in college history
You guys have as many "likes" in this vid as national ESPN media guy, Greg McElroy's, breakdown video .. from yesterday. No shade meant at Greg. Just pointing it out. But well done, sirs. Well done.
The Buckeyes got a B+ for the 1st half vs Oregon. Good luck getting a grade of “A”. Texas made a few mistakes that cost them too. That dropped pass when the WR jumped up to try to corral the catch cost them a 1st and 10. It just seems like so many people only view it from an OSU perspective. Go Buckeyes!
Buckeye Nation 👉🏽 Paradigm Shift from former athlete @ The OSU, 1985-89. Let’s STOP, take a moment, and question the rivalry with TTUN-they forever altered the competition the moment their coaches DISHONORED the rivalry for personal gain 👉🏽 cheating scandal, threats to go to court-joke, game suspensions, violation of BIG 10 conference guidelines, potentially collaborating with other schools and conferences to gain an advantage, disregard of sportsmanship, LB coach fired, lack of professionalism, immunity clause, escaping to the NFL to avoid accountability, contract clauses to avoid accountability, NCAA investigation delays, etc. The TRADITION of the rivalry and “The Game” with TTUN was always bigger than the ego /desperation of a few coaches. They could not compete so they decided to cheat!! NCAA investigation still pending-due process right 🤷🏽♀️🎤😂 👉🏽 EVERY game on the schedule is now “The Game” because we are in the 12 team CPF era. TTUN is just another game on the schedule. Go Bucks 🅾️🙌🏽🙏🏽🅾️
Birm cmon man. Howard had happy feet throughout the game. He once again got tripped up by the turf. He played well enough for them to win. I think he will play better against ND.
Thats not a great accomplishment. Will is average at best he is a good game manager but has a weak arm and his long balls are almost always short that's why our recievers are always holding up or even stopping for the ball@easyenetwork2023
Who would've thought Q would score on 2 runs from inside the 10? Q should've taken that pitch straight up field instead of trying to get outside. Sonny will be attacked relentlessly in coverage by ND. He's definitely is the linkest like there right now.
She is a stalwart fan who doesn't need anyone's defense. Importantly she is a reasonable antidote to Carpenter's rotation of lazy dick jokes and she is the PR director of the a company that helps pay for these guys to do their thing.
LMAO, Austin is still on the Will Howard concussion thing. Stop making pansy excuses. Will Hoard just needs to go beat Notre Dame. And Austin needs to man up..
@@aaronfromohio8895 I wouldn't be shocked but he sucked before that hit. It's not like he went from being great to being terrible. He was bad from the jump
I don’t think the spread is too much at all. Notre Dames offense and defense are not as good as Texas and Ohio State covered that spread. This is not a good match up for Notre Dame at all.
Donovan Jackson played like a man on fire. He needs more recognition!

4 in a row now, I think? And his CFP record went from 1-3 to 4-3

Thanks for the Will love Birm. The national narrative about him is bizarre at times. He's a great Buckeye on and off the field.
Good timing on waiting for an ND guy to give Will motivation this game. Malik Zaire opened his mouth
That was by far the best game JT and Jack played together. JT was everywhere the whole game even after he was hurt and Jack always plays better at the end of the year. Enjoy your show much more when you talk about the game and players without getting off subject too much. Great show!
The biggest moment was right before halftime the Henderson screen pass to go up 14-7 that was A huge momentum and game changer
Great, meaningful discussion. Thanks.
Thrilled 4 THE team and Coaches🎉 GO BUCKS😤💯
The wideouts had some drops that were pretty surprising in that game. Smith, Mek and Tate all had balls that they could have or should have caught
Judkins is a tough runner. He ran 9 yards like a man on the first TD. Judkins threw a huge block to spring Henderson on the drive where Trey got the unsportsmanlike penalty I believe.
Thunder and Lightning
Gee Scott fighting for extra yards to make it 4th and 2 instead of 4th and 6 saved the game

Good explanation and answer. @@johnnybeef1
This is like when Frodo had to drop the ring in the darkest depths of Mordor while listening to Led Zeppelin.
5 of Tate's 7 catches were for first downs.
Don’t forget about Cie Grant’s near sack on Ken Dorsey to seal the victory in OT!
He ripped that boy down like he was a ragdoll who stole something😂
@ That’s so funny! A very accurate description! 😆
I thought that was Will Smith.
Then Cie capped it off at the celebration by singing “Carmen Ohio” at the Shoe in frigid weather. Good times.
@Edward_USMC13 yeah, Ken Dorsey kinda was a rag doll. Never looked like he belonged in the NFL
Re Will in Mich game: he came back on the field missing only one play after that hit if I remember correctly. If so, that concussion protocol must have been awfully brief. Know he was adamant about getting back on the field

2 times, on 3rd and 4th down. He destroyed Williams and turned him into a late 1st or early 2nd round pick probably.
Wrong Birm. I've been a fan of Gee since he got to the school. He is the best all-around TE on the team. JT is right there.
Do you guys know of anywhere to win tickets ??
Love Birm!!!!

You are correct. I'm 62. Greatest college play I've ever seen. Jack s play was great. Maurice play was greatest.
Will was late with that ball to Emeka. Not taking a shot at Will at all, just that the zone seemed to give him a little trouble with throwing on time.
JACK THE ROCK
Birm was spot on with bold predictions. I lol at Smith with one catch. My apologies.
Malik Zaire has already fired shots at Will Howard
A backup QB for 4 years.
I hope Gee Scott comes back next year. He could be a key receiver for Julian Sayin. Just sayin'.
Why didn't you all report that Howard was limping at the press conference before the game?
