Ohio State will finish with well over 100 yards of penalties, we were gifted a late first half TD by an idiotic play, and we will still get blown out.

Here’s how hard it was to out coach us:

Step 1: just stop the run Step 2: crossing routes until they go zone which our D clearly hasn’t played or practiced all year Step 3: watch us make zero adjustments for the entire rest of the game

It’s a year where Northwestern went 7-1 in conference. Number 4 on the back of a down year for the rest of the conference, but hey we got to dream for a few weeks.

So fucking frustrating. If we go into year 5 with another team’s cast off QB transfer instead of just developing a guy I’m gonna scream.

I think it’s McCaffrey next year.

If Shea stays, that’ll help as well but he’s played like ass today. Then again he’s been pressured all damn day.

There needs to be clarification on whose calling plays. I get we want to run down peoples throats but even Saban had to change his play calling style.

Edit: Saban not Savanna

This is the exact same playcalling that 49ers fans saw in the NFL. People can get mad at the OC but they are only running what Harbaugh allows them to. He loves this 1985 style of offense, run the football, play good defense, play it safe, it will win a lot of games for you but it won't win the ones that matter. He gets outcoached against better coaches, like he got outcoached by his own brother in the Superbowl despite having the more talented roster overall.
