Pick a guy, and stick to him. It's not a good look for a team when your leader is as indecisive and noncommittal as he has been. Also not good for the QB-coach relationship. I remember him saying the starter wouldn't have to look over his shoulder..yet every game, the minute a slump came on, he yanked jones. That kills a players confidence when a coach who says he trusts him and is 100% behind can't stick it out with him through the rough patches . Urban says the bottom line today (his pockets and his self interest) and panicked to have Barrett save the day, meanwhile he threw continuity and team Chem under the bus.

He's creating a QB controversy and honestly, this might make them beat themselves, as they are the only team in their way that can stop them. Too early in the season to start this type of dysfunction.

If I'm Braxton miller, I'm over there looking at him like he's crazy because neither of these guys are doing great, AND he's not getting touches.

Your move, Urbz

I agree with you for the most part. Both Cardale and JT haven't looked like themselves at all. Neither look to be getting in any rhythm because of the constant switches in QB. The playcalling also hasn't help. An example today was going with direct snaps to Braxton on first and second downs, then finally giving Cardale the ball on an obvious passing down.

My opinion is Barrett takes better care of the ball inside OSU territory whereas Jones goes all honey badger

The defense has looked great the last couple games

Nope. Its his responsibilty to put players out there who give them the best chance. If les miles had done that then the past several years would have been far less stressfull.

If he didn't make a comment about your team in defense of his he isn't a real Ohio fan.













I bet he was thinking of posting a national championship gift in response if this.

GL Urbz.

Just don't use the family card if things get "tough" again.

He did pick a guy...and he threw two picks. If you have a Heisman candidate in your bench play him.

The team is just so damn turnover happy that it's unbelievable. I mean I can't complain too much as we had 3 against Bama and 4 against Oregon and still won, but Jesus

Auburn couldn't even beat Jacksonville State on their own. Both teams would have lost to Virginia Tech. Maybe NIU, too. I know at least one team on your schedule that surely would have lost to the MAC team.

Only just two top 25 teams.

You quoted my post and used another's words, but I'll allow it since I'd have the same question. Overrated teams that should have never been ranked as high as they were is nothing to brag about. Mississippi State and Auburn are not very good. Let's see where they are in December.

I can't believe we are using excuses for this.

So cardale can't play well against MAC and WAC teams because of constant pressure.

Yet, I'd he was doing his job he would have the same playing time anyway because it would be a blow out and the backups would be in.

This is disgusting offensive football and its 100% players fault not coaches.

Honestly, it's scary how good this team can be. The defense is playing it off their mind.

Once the O gets it figured out, which it will, there isn't a better team in the nation. Not even close.
