Thoughts on Michigan State and tSio game
This has basically been a snoozefest up to this point. tSio looks pathetic and Michigan State still likes to try to take themselves out of the game with foolish penalties and turnovers at the worst time. BJ Cunningham is definitely a freakish receiver ... he really uses his size well. William Gholston is playing much better this game, but acts like a fool when he makes big plays ... talking trash in opponents faces and pointing. I wouldn't be real excited if I were rooting for either of these teams.
It seems to me like tSio is giving up on the season by giving the reigns to Braxton Miller. He shows his freshman instincts .. and is too quick to try running. His passes are off target and wobbly. Bauserman gives tSio the best opportunity to win, but apparently Fickell is willing to trade wins for the experience his young QB is getting.

After today, my expectations for us in B1G play has increased. OSU looks awful, MSU also looks pretty bad offensively, and they're defense looking this good all goes back to OSU being awful. Illinois isn't overwhelming and we can definitely beat them if we play well, and Northwestern w/out Persa is just plain bad. If Wisky can destroy Nebraksa that would make it that much better.

Any chance for a "Sparty NOooooo!" ?
October 1st, 2011 at 6:29 PM ^
Looks like too little, too late for OSU. Even if they score here I don't see them getting this one back.
That being said, a sloppy, low scoring game is just about the best case scenario we can get out of a meeting between tOSU and MSU.

2 team of incredible suck
October 1st, 2011 at 6:33 PM ^
Cripple fight? TIA
October 1st, 2011 at 6:34 PM ^
Tsio going down in flames. Suck it you scarlet and gray cheaters.
October 1st, 2011 at 6:34 PM ^
MSU is playing like garbage and OSU is playing like more garbage. And most people who watch college football know that OSU will be getting 4 very talented players back next week. So MSU might get the, "Well they didn't play OSU at full strength" treatment. Muahahha that sucks.
October 1st, 2011 at 6:34 PM ^
Getting Herron and Posey back will help Osu but unless an Ohio QB can find Posey I'm not very fearful of their offense.
October 1st, 2011 at 6:34 PM ^
to come.
I don't think so. Meanwhile, back to the game MSU 10, OSU 0 with 2:50 to play.... YAY!
October 1st, 2011 at 6:36 PM ^
I love that Millen said this game really opened some eyes about MSU. Because, yes, beating OSU's JV team by 10 is a sign of a great squad.
October 1st, 2011 at 6:37 PM ^
Fickell and Dantonio are bffs! He called off the dogs! They could've scored 40!
October 1st, 2011 at 6:37 PM ^
This is how Bucks' fans must have felt watching us the past three years. That LB could only manage 10 points says a lot about them.
October 1st, 2011 at 6:41 PM ^
To feel that way
October 1st, 2011 at 6:39 PM ^
I thought the time management was bad during the OSU-Miami game. Jesus Christ in a speedboat, this might be worse.
October 1st, 2011 at 6:39 PM ^
A timeout up by 2 scores with :28 seconds left
October 1st, 2011 at 6:41 PM ^
Amazing. How'd they get a home team scoreboard inset into the field on the 50 yard line?
October 1st, 2011 at 6:43 PM ^
Nice timeout Dantonio you jackass. What an arrogant asshole
October 1st, 2011 at 6:45 PM ^
WHOOOOAAHHH LOOK OUT SPARTY!
Things could get mighty interesting, but probably not. If anyone can find a way to lose a game with 10 seconds left it's Sparty (or ND).
October 1st, 2011 at 6:45 PM ^
Way to fall timeout....
October 1st, 2011 at 6:45 PM ^
Sparty will be more insufferable than usual. They were able to beat OSU in Columbus, ect... If there were ever a year that Michigan has to beat MSU, it's this one.
October 1st, 2011 at 6:54 PM ^
"Take that SOS and shove it up your ass. We won bitch AT OSU"And my personal favorite...
"what you just saw was the Defense playing a break through game - they were dominant against a traditionally top tier B1G team... how can you not be happy with that?"
October 1st, 2011 at 7:21 PM ^
OMG...we just beat tOSU 10-7 at tShoe. Held them to just 7. Who in the B1G can possibly beat us? We should be in the top 10 now. It will be a blue wall conspiracy if we are not. I can see the headlines now: UM pastes Minny. MSU just barely squeaks by OSU. I mean c'mon they are so biased against MSU!! It just sucks!
I already posted this in another thread, but....yeahhhh....
October 1st, 2011 at 6:45 PM ^
Wow, how did OSU not recover that?
October 1st, 2011 at 8:04 PM ^
They did not want to let go of the c-notes in their other hand
October 1st, 2011 at 6:47 PM ^
Buckeyes celebrating no shutout since 1982..
October 1st, 2011 at 6:53 PM ^
With how much he hates Michigan? I would not at all be surprised if that was 100% true, which would be hilarious to me. Maybe he wants to prove something about MSU becoming a big name program, but at the end of the day he fits the mold of an OSU guy to me.
October 1st, 2011 at 7:14 PM ^
but at the end of the day he fits the mold of an OSU guy to me.
A condescending, egotistic, delusional asshole? I couldn't agree more.
October 1st, 2011 at 7:18 PM ^
Exactly.

Fake disciplinarian
October 1st, 2011 at 9:11 PM ^
The way he handled the Glenn Winston matter and having the bus pick up Rucker at the jail while on their way to Iowa City says it all. He certainly learned his lessons from Tressell well. He's the obvious choice.
October 1st, 2011 at 6:52 PM ^
OSU will lose their next 3
10/8 @ #8 Nebraska
10/15 @ #24 Illinois
10/29 Winsconsin
MSU will also lose next 3
10/15 #19 Michigan
10/22 #7 Wisconsin
10/29 @ #8 Nebraska
This will be a fun month
October 1st, 2011 at 8:00 PM ^
That would certainly be a wonderful month - boards would get very interesting
October 1st, 2011 at 6:53 PM ^
When your band plays the fight song just because you complete a pass and aren't sacked.
October 1st, 2011 at 6:54 PM ^
With a game like that they probably needed to get it in at some point, just so they didn't forget it.
October 1st, 2011 at 10:54 PM ^
The OSU fight song makes my soul bleed. I'd rather listen to Tween Wave than crappy brass band music. Thank goodness for the mute button.

Taking bets on who will replace Fickell:
Fickell stays
Terry Francona
Dantonio
Michael Haywood the guy fired by Pitt after one day on the job
George Oleary - resigned as Notre Dame football coach five days after being hired, admitting he lied about his academic and athletic background.
October 1st, 2011 at 7:22 PM ^
MSU's D scares me a bit, but that's about the only thing making me nervous at this point. Really hope OSU doesn't make the jump to mildly capable on offense once those players come back from suspension.
October 1st, 2011 at 7:53 PM ^
October 1st, 2011 at 7:28 PM ^
Fickell looks like some amalgam of Adam Sandler, and Dantonio still looks like a box of MaxiPads.
October 1st, 2011 at 7:45 PM ^
October 1st, 2011 at 8:42 PM ^
Best possible outcome: One team loses and looks awful, while the winner only looks mediocre. A decent team would have beaten State soundly today. Their ND loss was not a fluke.
Yes, I'm biased.
October 1st, 2011 at 9:43 PM ^
I understand that Taco pants transfered to tOSU this year, waaaaaa sports bandaging degree-- go get it Taco.
October 1st, 2011 at 10:13 PM ^
think they both suck ass.GO BLUE!!!
