Everyone understands that Luke Fahey is a lot better at running a Ryan Day practice
This doesn’t mean that Tavien wouldn’t be the better QB on Saturday
If a 3 loss team is going to make the CFP this year there is one way that it could still be Ohio State
Only way is Tavien takes over at QB and the team looks completely different over the next 3 games and wins all 3 by blowout
Kind of the reverse Florida State if you will
The committee could excuse the losses as “they are not the same team now that Tavien is their QB”
Every time I’ve ever watched him play football he has looked like he is capable
Also we have a unique roster build where JJ can get behind almost every single defense and having a QB that can throw the ball downfield is a plus
Idk where the idea came from that this is an unplayable kid
The story these stats don’t tell
First drive Bo Jackson in the game making plays TD
Second drive Bo on the bench 3 and out
Third drive Bo on the field making plays another TD
Fourth drive Bo on the the bench 3 and out
Idc who your RB is but not allowing your guys to get into the flow of the game by rotating for no reason at all is absurd
JJ was visibly frustrated last night, and plays like this certainly contributed to it.
The subtle flash fake to West holds Perich for just a split second. Perich is responsible for the help over the top of JJ, and that hesitation allows JJ to get behind the coverage.
Fahey’s eyes are initially on that side, but IMO he comes off it too quickly. The pocket is clean. Give it another beat and see if the shot develops.
If you don’t like it, take the checkdown to West and let him try to make someone miss.
There were opportunities left on the field.

The truth behind the is is prolly deeper than people think
If I had to guess MP would rather ask them to drop into coverage than have them cage rush and our DL coach is 700 years old so the new style of pass rushing is something he doesn’t even dabble in
Qua Russaw out of his own mouth said his game is at it's best when he is getting after the QB. When they allowed him to do it he was solid.
Why Matt Patricia kept dropping him and Jackson into coverage when the kid literally told you what he's good at is abysmal coaching.
Is this the one rep Khary got that multiple people told me he got man handled?
TF is wrong with this fan base and how they view our players this is absolutely not getting man handled
Anyone in or around OSU that got a problem with anything JJ did or said should not be in or around the program anymore
We watched this team for feed players that are not even in the same conversation as him
The creativity in getting him to ball just went away even before Sayin got hurt
Best Ohio State player ever and he had a right to be upset watching the season go down the drain to 2 shitty football teams
@SadOSUhoopsFan Cool he played one play in the last 8 games and wasn’t perfect… we have seen him be better then every other DL on the team at cussing disruption
Luke Fahey
72% Completion
360 Yards Passing
2 TD
1 INT
6 Rushes, 0 yards, long 11 yards
Only took 2 Sacks
Is it his fault they didn’t throw the ball down the field to JJ until the last drive?
Yeah it wasn’t ideal it’s just the fact that we were in a spot where he had to throw so much because of how good he is imo
Yes the defense gave up a lot but when your offense has basically negative yards from 2/3 of the game this is going to happen
I don’t even blame all of the offense on Fahey I think this staff just plays anyone and everyone for no reason
Nah I know brother it’s just everyone the last 2 weeks has completely overblown the “it’s not on Fahey” narrative
We win both games with Julian and the defense doesn’t give up as many points because we don’t end up playing a whole quarter is desperation
This defense has flaws but it has all year
