"One good player" then how'd they beat michigan?
I think he brought the toughness back to the Oline. He did the same at tOSU when Meyer was there.
Kenneth Walker III 27 Yd Run (Matt Coghlin Kick)
Just so we're clear - Walker ran for 197 yards on 23 carries for 5 TDs against michigan (MSU tough?), and only 25 yards on 6 carries vs us (MSU not tough?), but that doesn't count. Gotcha.
You have no ability to be objective. I bet you kick the dog after a Buckeye loss. Miserable.
Great job showing your work, grump.
Leave that dog alone. He is not up BigNuts arse like you.
Yeah let me know when you can actually prove your point, dog.
dog ahahahahahahahahah ok little camper...
Just to put it out there. Walker single handedly beat UM and is the person responsible for Tucker getting that massive extension. Living in Michigan and being friends with many MSU fans -- I can tell you they all say without Walker -- the 11 win season doesn't happen and the huge contract for Tucker doesn't happen.
OSU got out to a huge lead -- I think they were up 6 or 7 tds in the 1st half. I don't even think they played Walker in the 2nd half, the game was so out of hand.
Oh you're definitely right. It just goes against the narrative that we're so weak in the trenches that Walker decimated michigan while not doing anything against us. We did get going quick in that game, but it wasn't like we scored, they turned it over, we scored, they turned it over, we scored. Walker didn't do anything against us, and he was definitely an elite RB. That wasn't a knock on michigan, he is definitely that good.
You're the one that said dog first
Again -- I don't put much into the numbers or where teams are ranked right now, as teams are trying to get guys snaps in glorified scrimmages in OOC.
Walker is a guy who had a never ending motor. Michigan shut him down early. He ABSOLUTELY TORCHED US in the 2nd half. It is painful to even think about that game.
Oddly enough, this is the year I would disagree that we have to do that. We're very stout on the interior of our DL, and Eichenberg/Chambers are stout enough against the run to not have to blitz. Ransom looks greatly improved, and we also now have Sonny Styles playing the LB/S hybrid role with elite size and speed. Another big change (so far) from last year was the fact our defensive backfield was so banged up. Hancock was out, Ransom was playing with a broken hand, Styles wasn't playing and we didn't have Igbinosun. Of course they actually have to stay healthy between now and November but we're hopefully going to be in a MUCH better spot than last year.
I remember watching that game too. I was terrified to play them after seeing what Mo Ibrahim did to us earlier in the year. When we went up 14-0 I fully expected them to use him to start slowing the game down, then they missed the FG and he hardly played at all after.
They just gave up over 5 yards per carry and 180 yards to ND, who don't have the RB's Michigan does, nor the continuity of the OL that Michigan does. So I hope you are right and they don't blitz, because that would give Michigan a big advantage.
I'm 1000% of the WR room at OSU. It is crazy the talent they have, not just in 2021, 2022, but almost every year in the last decade.
