The Buckeye Nation!!!! lol.... What do you expect? They saw nothing wrong with Meyer's actions.
Wow! 78sweetrevenge lives in Central Ohio. Who would have guessed?I live in Ohio and the OSU fans I know are very concerned about this game. The white out might be the best home field advantage in CF - certainly top 2 or 3
Lots of OSU fans felt he was wrong for retaining Smith as long as he did.
“Lots”.....no way.
Some, a small very quiet minority, probably not even 10%.
? Huh ?Wow! 78sweetrevenge lives in Central Ohio. Who would have guessed?
Not surprising considering how our defense has played.disrespect?
If it’s a game where we trade big plays, we will be out of it by mid third quarter. We need long sustained drives, ball control and clock control/ field possession. We need to keep our defense off the field.In my opinion if a blowout, we would be on the losing side.
We need turnovers on defense and big plays on offense to win. I would take a flukey win.
If you aren't smart enough to know how I figured it out, it's on you? Huh ?
If you aren't smart enough to know how I figured it out, it's on you
Seriously, I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm new to the board but whatever floats your boat.....If you aren't smart enough to know how I figured it out, it's on you
How do you feel about D’Andre Swift?Seriously, I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm new to the board but whatever floats your boat.....

Fans expecting a win or a loss have never influenced the outcome of a game....and never will.I will say one thing - there is a difference right now between the OSU fanbase and that of PSU. Since the start of the 2016 season PSU is 26-5, OSU is 27-4. We have played twice, each team won a tight game at home. Yet OSU fans expect to win every game. They believe they are a top 10, maybe top 5 or top 3 program and their confidence reflects that. Makes no difference if they give up 31 points to Oregon State or 500 yards to TCU. They still expect their guys to win. Conversely the PSU fanbase, with some exceptions, believes we have achieved this 2 and a half year run with smoke and mirrors. The wins over Ohio State, Michigan, Michigan State, Iowa, Wisconsin, Washington, were all just a perfect storm and the more accurate picture of the program is a tough half of football against Illinois or Pitt.
So I have no issue at all with any OSU fan who expects they will win big. That's what fans of a big time football power should think. Sometimes they will be proven wrong, such as against Clemson and PSU and Iowa the past few years, but for the most part they do win big regardless of opponent or venue. As a PSU fan I would hope we soon get to that place soon where we act like we've been there before and expect to win every week against every opponent. I can already imagine the terror some must have thinking about playing Michigan because they looked awfully good against Western Michigan and Nebraska.

LOLWell put. Michigan, PSU, and OSU are paying their coaches a ton of money for results and their fans should expect wins.
Did you watch the game Friday?Wrong decade. I agree with your concern about the defense, but there’s no way we should take an offense that’s averaging 55 points a game and try to go into some conservative Paterno era ball control game plan.
That’s a recipe for a certain loss. Franklin loves explosive plays so I think it’s a safe bet he won’t turtle up the offense out of fear of Ohio St. Thats a losers mentality.
You make a good point, but defense still wins championships and big games. Right now we are not good enough on that side of the ball.I will say one thing - there is a difference right now between the OSU fanbase and that of PSU.

Nah, I think the Buckeyes will only lose by a couple a touchdowns of Penn State. Seriously though, I think it will be a tight game that Penn State will have to maximize opportunities (turnovers, special teams, sure tackling) in order to win.disrespect?

Agree. Especially without Bosa. I see a high scoring game with OSU winning by 10I live in Ohio and the OSU fans I know are very concerned about this game. The white out might be the best home field advantage in CF - certainly top 2 or 3
In my opinion if a blowout, we would be on the losing side.
