There were 2 and 3 guys where ever Sutton went. This caused some others to have more man responsibilities and that along with the early trick plays got TCU burned a couple of times.

Do you have a link to anything showing he was injured? I couldn't find anything about it. Or are you just assuming that his 1 reception for 0 yards could only happen if he was injured? Or did GP dial up a defense to stop him as has been done against stud WRs many times.

His/her names says it all, bye.
Gundy has out schemed Gary in the past. Hopefully, Gary has it figured out this year. Gary needs to get the defensive calls in quicker.
We have nothing to lose in this game. We are not supposed to win, according to the "experts". Hopefully we play loose with reckless abandon.

I remember the announcers talking about him trying to move around while he was on the sideline and not doing too well.

OSU knows our offense (as seen to date), in my opinion, better than we do. As a few have pointed out in the SMU game thread, OSU assist. O-coordinators are licking their chops at this game.
Let's hope we have a bag full of tricks a la 2009 and 2010.

How are they reading our defense? What are they keying on?

I don't think it was an injury issue. They double teamed him a lot. Took those routes away.

Everybody quit the belly aching. GP is being GP. press loves it. mainly because they need the material because they are [rod gilmore] hats who lack any journalistic talent and would sell their own mothers for free game tickets and an order of nachos.
Remember, this is a longer season now. Goal is to get to the conference champ game. and there are multiple ways to do it.
knock off the metro sexual nosense. this was smoo's big game and they threw all they had. and they have a great coach. we beat them by 20. done.

I don't know the answer to this, but it seems obvious that it's true. In both 2015 and 2016 they seemed to *always* find a gap in our defensive schemes.

To me, this all plays out perfectly. We had a crap game, are lower ranked, are underdogs. They slaughtered a good team, and unless they are a super mature team, dead serious about business (which would make them absolute NC contenders), OSU may be prone to a slow start. Hoping that's just what the doctor ordered. Need to outrush them by a couple dozen attempts IMHO.
I was watching the OSU game hoping they would dominate Pitt for that very reason. Generally, it's just really hard to follow up a great performance with another one, in any sport. Let's hope that theory holds true Saturday.
Reading this board you'd think OSU is on a par with the 2009 Alabama team, like they are some kind of unbeatable juggernaut. I'm not really buying it, I think we've got a legit chance to win. Won't be easy at all and we'll have to play really well, but I don't think they'll just overwhelm us either.

I had to listen to the game on the radio but recorded it on my DVR and I'm rewatching currently. A couple of observations:
-when the kicker was iced on the long field goal, his kick was not good on the kick interrupted by the time out. I slowed it down to 1/15 speed and I'm 99.9% sure.
-on the Hail Mary play to end the first half, four SMU players surround Reagor. None of their 8 feet left the turf. Reagor could have signaled a fair catch, it seemed.

I apologize for providing no analysis whatsoever, but I just have this feeling that we're going to win this. I think we have a depth we haven't had in awhile and the personnel to get it done. Let's go!!
I think it's been mentioned but bears repeating - we are finally going to have a different system in place for our offensive play calls in addition to the fact that SC is now calling plays. I'm convinced they've been reading our mail since we brought in Meach. Even Boykin got shut down before JD got hurt that year. Going to find out we are a lot harder to defend when you don't know what is coming.
There is no explanation for their dominance over us yet fairly pedestrian results otherwise. They lost to the Chippewa last year for God's sake. No reason for them to dominate us like that no matter how bad we sucked last year.
I'm not buying OSU's greatness just yet.
Edit - sorry wrong thread.

Gary and the last minute arm wave, defense not ready for the snap...looking to the sideline will be the end of me one day.

Were we capable of beating Ole Miss?
