Ohio State's uniforms for the Michigan game

[buckeyevol23]

If I wasn't mistaken, this was a discussion on uniforms?

So irritating how no one can stay on topic.

First post was like a week ago. That's what most topics tend to do anyway.

2006 he wasn't really conservative, but that was one year. His playcalling is also predictable and unimaginative. After the USC game, USC's players said they knew what plays OSU was going to run by the formations they lined up in.

My point is, he's conservative when he has to be. The most he really can open it up is letting Pryor roll out a little more. Anything else and OSU's turnovers shoot up.

OSU fans wouldn't mind the conservative playcalling so much if the plays actually worked. They haven't been able to pound the ball for short yardage consistently against top teams in the last few years, even with Beanie. He was conservative with Krenzel but he had a power running game that chewed the clock.

No he didn't. He had an anemic offense that relied on the defense to win anything. The 2002 squad may have been the worst offensive squad to win a national title in the last 20 years or longer.

Pryor's still young and needs to work on passing yet too many times OSU keeps him in the pocket. They don't always play to his strengths. The zone read works well for one week then disappears the next.

I'm still hoping he makes a big improvement like Vince Young did between his sophomore and junior year. I'm not counting on it.

Um, they were able to run the ball effectively with Clarett. Even against Miami, they got yards when they needed to.

Not sure what you mean by that but it's not far fetched to think he'll improve in his 3rd yr. VY was a redshirt jr anyway, and Pryor's supporting cast is still young.

I meant hoping, not making.

And OSU couldn't count on their running game to win. They relied on big defensive plays and a whole lot of luck to win. That should have probably been a 4 loss team. They have gotten yards against bad teams, and maybe even had a few big plays in the bigger games, but all in all, the offense was bad.

I never said they counted on it to win. I'm saying it got them yards and used clock which is the type of offense required in Tressel ball paired with great defense and ST.

They aren't nearly effective enough running the ball this year so he needs to be more creative with the playcalling.

The Ohio State fanbase is more obnoxious, bigger homers, and less intelligent as a group. So many college football fans here, and only a small percentage understand anything about college football. The fanbase is unbelievably spoiled and people have way too high expectations.

Agreed. I go to Ohio U and there are so many OSU bandwagon fans here it is ridiculous. They wouldn't know one player on OSU if it wasn't for Pryor. Everyone loves Pryor!!

I am one that thinks the offense should be more suited for pryor's strengths. He is obviously a better runner than passer right now, but that doesn't mean it won't come with time. He has shown flashes that he can throw effectively just need consistency.

The unis looked hideous in the pic in the OP but they didnt' look that bad when I checked out the website.

VT = Good Guys Wear White
TCU = Never Back Down
Ohio State = Earned
Florida State = Fear The Spear
Oklahoma = Stake Our Claim
Florida = Finish The Mission
Texas = It Only Takes Eleven
LSU = Cochon De Lait
Mizzou = Beast Mode
Miami = The U Knows

I should devote the rest of my life to building a time machine with the sole purpose of destroying Nike. I hate their "style" that much...

The game is now on. The unis look awesome. A lot better than the already worn out black jersey trend that has been going through the NCAA this year.
