November 10, 20187 yr Dominant defense and special teams. I’ll take a Tressel ball victory everyday of the week. I’m starting to feel good about this team again. Those that didn’t watch the game, get to know Tate Martell. This was the type of win we saw almost every Big 10 game before Meyer arrived. It also helps when Michigan State literally hands OSU the game by fumbling the ball in the end zone that OSU recovered for a td to go up 10. Then the very next position fumbling a single option pitch that OSU recovered for a short field for more points. Neither of those were forced by the defense. It was MSU shooting themselves in the foot. At the end of the day though sometimes you need some luck to get things jump started again.

They knew they had no chance in this one.
November 10, 20187 yr Author Defend your QB all you want, he threw the ball over his WR's heads several times and hit MSU DB's in the hands several times. To not admit he made several bad throws and blaming it all on the WR's just isn't what happened on the field today. I didn’t blame it all on the WRs. Haskins played fine today though.

Minnesota, Indiana, Nebraska all suck too and we looked lost on defense in those games. Even without MSU self destructing the defense was dominant.
November 11, 20187 yr Chalk this one up to the Bucks special teams and defense. 1.) Don't lay an egg and lose next week. 2) beat the team up North. 3.) Win the Big10 by beating NW in the title game and see where we land. Yes, it's that simple …. Easy, right :lol2: BTW … Missing persons report: Should anyone see the OSU offense, please notify authorities.m
