They have 3 NFL Day 1 picks at receiver. We didnt have one that could get separation yesterday.

We have tackles that score in the 30s on PFF. Until we can pass block, everything else doesnt matter. We are running backups from other schools and walk ons at tackle. OSU is running NFL guys out there.

Last night, the refs didnt call holding at all. OSU's line was good enough to hold and protect Howard. Ours wasn't good enough to hold and give Nico time...

We dont rotate because we played a lot of close games. Of course, we play close games because we have to play it close to vest because we cant protect the QB...

David Sanders will help. We just need more there.

We have 3 nfl receivers who will be rotating so they’re not beat to ****. We should try that.
They could not get open because they were playing at 50%. I don’t know if you’ve ever tried to play on a high ankle sprain but it slows you way down.

The o line problems further exposed the problem but better line play would not have gotten anyone open last night. The reality is we have more than one issue that contributed to last night and if that game is played at a different time there’s likely a way different result.

pretty much sums it up - portal is backups, mid majors and guys that rarely play at the P5 schools they leave -- Can find basketball players in the portal much easier than football

We haven’t signed or developed a nfl receiver or offensive lineman under Heupel. The best wrs were the former staff’s, same with linemen.

Banks gets out coached a lot, frankly. Our dbs are constantly out of position. OSU out coached UT last night. Bigly.

For the love of all things holy. Stop saying “out coached”. That’s just some bull **** that people say when they don’t understand what is happening on the football field
