Positives from today?

[SeattleHawki]

1. We identified some clear areas for improvement, particularly on the offensive side of the ball.
2. Ohio State shined a bright light on a few weak units, information that will be very valuable for future recruiting efforts.
3. We confirmed that a whole bunch of our plays won’t work against a good D.

 

[St. Louis Hawk]

I'm positive we are terrible.

Lol

 

[DrVenkman]

A positive is total re-affirmation that I can enjoy my October Saturday afternoons being outside golfing - not completely wasting 3.5 hours watching laughable garbage.

Rock solid analysis and clarifies a lot of things that can be utilized next week.

This was already known...we had 2 weeks to improve and...we didnt.

 

[markfromj]

Our D was outstanding.

 

[CleteyColgate]

Our D was outstanding.

I agree. Can't just look at the box score on this one, except for our our lousy offense

 

[SeattleHawki]

A few more positives:
4. The video editors in the marketing department won’t have to waste a bunch of time making a highlight reel.
5. The cleaning department won’t have to dust those pesky “traveling trophies”
6. The bowl game travel department can take the month of December off.

 

[pistachio1999]

We have the worst O Line in the Big Ten.

 

[QChawks]

I missed 90% of the game

 

[acic1]

Brian can still go home and look his kids in the eye…

 

[jonesy5960]

Dumb! You probably missed most of the offensive highlights!

 

[pistachio1999]

6 turnovers. Least it wasn’t 7!

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Our D was outstanding.

Absolutely so.

 

[HawkeyeHighFlyers]

Op have you lost your mind?

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Drew Stevens kicked well?

 

[jonesy5960]

Our D was outstanding.

2.2 yards per rush allowed. If not for a couple of absolute circus throws/catches OSU doesn't get 300 yards today.

 

[Hendy hawk]

We have the worst O Line in the Big Ten.

Have not seen Northwestern yet so can't say yes or no yet.
That will be determined in a couple weeks I think

Any yet, BF will continue to run those plays without hesitation.

 

[TheonGreyJoy]

I'm positive we are terrible.

Terrible? I wish this team could make it to terrible, would be 5-2 instead!

 

[Bearhawk0505]

1. D is really, really good( we already knew this)
2. OT is a massive issue. Good thing Proctor is coming, but we may need to be active in the portal here too.
3. It is clear as ever a new OC is needed(most knew this)
4. Neither QB that played is a difference maker. Labas needs to play later this year, and we may need the portal here too

 

[Chishawk1425]

I watched 10 minutes of it was my positive

 

[Hawk in Florida]

Kaleb got plenty of work as a Kickoff Return Specialist.

 

[mustang_hawk]

Spencer did a lot of good things out there today.😎

 

[kzoohawk80]

This board will continue to be more entertaining then the football team.

 

[ISPHawk]

Other than the D........NONE!

 

[BustingNarratives]

Petrus looked good in that red hat on the sideline. Bring on Labas.

 

[mthawkeyes]

We have the worst O Line in a P5 conference.

FIFY

 

[Ignored]

Maybe not from today, but there are no more unwinnable games this year. Purdue is getting crapped on by Wisconsin right now. Last stretch of the season could get interesting in the West.

 

[kceasthawk]

Kaleb got plenty of work as a Kickoff Return Specialist.

AND we need to stop running back kickoffs inside the five. I think he got outside the 25 ONCE the whole game. With this offense we simply can't afford to start inside the 20 ever. Take the ball at the 25 like most teams do. Jones ran one back last year sure, but most of the season we'd start inside the 20 for the same reason.

 

[Gridiron24]

I went outside and took a walk during the second half.

I've turned off games (Big Ten Champ Game last year), but I've never up and left the house during a game 😂.

Didn’t even bother to turn it on.

This was far to predictable, it would be like watching a repeat.

UFC had some great fights today. Even the lopsided matches were more entertaining.

 

[Hawkeye_4_Life]

We are only 16 days away from Basketball starting.

 

[IllQChawk]

Iowa doesn't have to play Ohio St or Michigan any more this year and as another poster has said, Petras looked good with a red hat on.
The negatives from today is Petras will probably come back next year and be named starting quarterback....I shiver to think that is a possibility....

 

[warrioreagle]

Just got to Dayton for the night.
Had a great experience at the Shoe despite what the scoreboard says. Tailgating was great by the Fawcett Center. O$U fans super nice. Hats off to both bands for a great Elton John halftime show. Seats were decent for being 40 rows up in section 26C. Won't be back to Columbus probably for a while, but Ohio Stadium was great overall. Cheers

sad thing is I can see bri bri and kirk saying this

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Got to see our backup QB...

5 games too late, but got to see him.

Still probably not the answer at QB, but at least he can run a little, with the turnstiles on the Oline.
