| reading numerous players saying that they coasted and lifted foot off the pedal when leading 14-0 ... really ? against the bucknuts , because why we have beaten so often lately? .... that is more bad coaching imho ... soft nature still exists in this team unfortunately | |

Haven't seen those quotes but seems bizarre to me. I saw no evidence of it. Perhaps some sort of self-rationalizatin for the loss. OSU has a potent offense and they are hard to contain for 60 minutes. They picked up when Urban called JT's number to run a lot more. On offense we ran well, and the pass blocking was shockingly good given the rep of OSU's front seven. O'Korn just couldn't hit open receivers and also held the ball too long, neither of which was shocking based upon the past. That is not an effort thing though. I was amazed that we were as close as we were with a chance to win given the D- QB play. I thought it was the best job of coaching done all season. | |

| Again it must be a self-rationalization. He just decided it was OK to miss open receivers because we were up 14? | |

True- he played poorly throughout the game. | |
