Geno's Numbers today:
657 Yards
49-54
8 TDs
No INT
un:censored:ing believable
Words cannot describe that type of performance.
Matt who ? (starting to wonder what happened to the pre-season favorite). I'm holding on to Geno ..... all the way to the top. All season long we have been tooting his horn, and well deservedly so. ! This guy is the real deal !
+1 ..... nice
Our defense is getting better, we're staying in shape and the only hole is pass defense. We gave up 2 or 3 forty yard passes. Were really good in redzone defense.
We had a 90 minute weather delay with 6 minutes left in the second quarter. After the delay, we score 21 straight (28-10) and only give up a kickoff return touchdown. Our quarterback threw three picks, but we got three takeaways as well. Best of all, we finally have a running back again! First good runner we've had since Chris Johnson. 25 carries for 150 and a TD, name is Vintavious Cooper. UTEP is also really good, so I'm actually very impressed with our play.
Now, that I've said that, we will probably lose to Memphis in two Saturdays
.
Great job by your Pirates CAM 👍 . You guys are having a good old time down there. Keep it up.
It's funny, well maybe odd, that you mention losing to Memphis. We (O.S.U.) have got one coming up that falls into the same category. In two weeks we face off against the 2 - 2 Indiana Hoosiers, who are really not that good. Those are the kind of games that sneak up on you and bite you in the ass.
Careful boys, careful. Don't get to big of a head here.
Yep. We won 35-14 to take home the Bayou Bucket.
Nice John 👍
We are now officially #1 in the Big 12 with us now ranked #8. But Kansas State is ranked one spot behind at #9.
Bring it on October 20th.
We can call you butter, because you are on a roll
. Congrats on hitting that plateau. Keep it up.
Some OSU Bucknotes now.
It was indeed as nail biter up in East Lansing. We survived a tough one, 17 - 16. This game very well could have gone the other way. A missed field goal by MSU, all of those dropped passes by the MSU receivers ... game changing moments indeed. On the flip side of the coin, we had some moments as well. We could have done some damage in certain situations, but we puffed them away. Overall, the Buckeyes defense was stellar !!! We held the Spartans to just 35 yards on the ground. We gave up 269 in the air ... via bits and pieces, but we did not give up the big one as we have done so in the previous 4 games. Great job, and hats off to Luke Fickell (defensive coordinator) on his play calling. Braxton Miller looked pretty good. He was 16 of 23 (with a tweaked knee) for 179 yards. 63 of those yards being a great pitch and catch for a TD to Devin Smith. He also ran 23 times for 136 yards. It's a good feeling to go on the road in your division opener, against a ranked opponent in a hostile environment, and come away with a victory.
Next week .... we go primetime, 8:00 and on ABC. #22 Nebraska comes to the Horseshoe for the 1st time since joining the Big 10. This game will be very good to watch. (P/S ... I might, just might have tickets coming to me for this one. I'll know on Tuesday) ... (hoping).
So next week is the halfway point in this '12 season. What are your overall thoughts so far ? Good ? Bad ? A solid Meh ? There is a lot of good football left, so hang on, some interesting games are upcoming.
here's to your Pirates.
There are some tall hurdles in your list. LSU (lately) has been a bit on the shaky side of things (winning, but still shaky). They could possibly drop one on down the road. But 'Bama, who can possibly get in their way ?
