The Official #9 Tennessee @ #8 Ohio State Game Thread, 8:00 PM ET, ABC/ESPN

[Frozevol]

OSU is just better, in all aspects.
They also appear to be way better than UGA.

Oregon is winning this b****

I don’t think so. OSU will carry this mojo to Cali and beat them. I think they will be the odds on favorite now.

 

[hound dog hillbil]

Right tackle,hell Noone blocking

 

[GiveHim6InSC]

Well, Carter didn’t let one bounce!!!

 

[firestorm]

I’m less depressed that the Buckeyes most likely will again experience harrowing defeat vs an excellent Ducks team.

 

[connor]

This one hurts my soul

Heupel can not coach on the road

No. He's not the guy. Done a good job. Not going to get Tennessee anywhere of note. 7-9 win coach most years.

 

[Marauder]

Nico can't handle pressure

Are you watching the game.....the offensive line has sucked.....he has been running for his life and doing all he could all night. Also, Nico has nothing to do with secondary being total sh*t all night. Good grief.

 

[patrick]

Total sh$$show.

This will not change until Heupel makes significant staff changes which will not happen.

 

[BreatheUT]

This game did so much damage tonight to the program.

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

Is there a more embarrassing showing in your memory than this?

Not if you count all the sh@t some of the fans talked online. I really wanted them to be quite because I knew we had so much trouble on offense this year

 

[87&91ALUM]

I'm out....

 

[orangerush]

it’s a good thing we’re 8 or 9 deep on the d line otherwise the score would be much worse

 

[tnvols72]

If OSU plays like this the rest of the playoffs, they're winning it all.

no there not. Tn is making them look better than they are. Michigan proved that

 

[nomads-11]

This will be year 3 saying this....but FIX the OL!!!! Yes, there are other "issues", like actually being able to complete a vertical pass over 5 yds, in prime time. But I digress. Fix the OL...!

 

[BP4Prez]

I don't get the Nico bashing, his legs are the only reason it isn’t t 72-0. He has had to run for his life the whole game. Reminds me of Guarantano’s first couple years

Exactly. What was he supposed to do? We don’t have a receiver capable of creating any separation. We can’t block them.

Ohio State alum. First, kudos to Tennessee fans for showing up at the Old Horseshoe on a cold night and supporting their team. Y'all were visible and loud -- well done. Second, your QB is going to be really, really good next season -- especially if he gets some difference makers at WR. Finally, tonight was Ohio State's night. I watched Tennessee a few times this season. The Vols are better than they showed tonight; something was off. All Buckeye fans were hoping Day would coach aggressively like he did against Georgia in the CFP a few seasons ago, and fortunately the offense utilized the downfield pass this game. BTW, the only one to shut down WR Jeremiah Smith all season was Ryan Day / Chip Kelly.

Good luck next season, especially against Georgia, Alabama and Florida.

Classy post, thanks. Be a shame if you guys don't win it all.

Good post. Thanks for the kind thoughts and I agree, should have been a much better game than it turned out to be. Something is way, way off with this team and hopefully we figure out what that truly is.

Good luck to you and your team. Can’t say I’m a fan, but if they meet UGA or Texas, would be tough not to pull for them (or a giant meteor would work as well).

 

[Allvols98]

This game kinda looks like a game where half the coaches and teams have already checked out

 

[hardyemt_p]

At least we made the playoffs!!!!

 

[FSUgothosed]

That is loser talk - I HATE what we are showing here but I would rather get my ass kicked on national TV for the world to see than be sitting at home like Alabama.

You cant win if you arent in the game.

Very true, however tOSU vs Bama would’ve been a better game

 

[Vols919]

Thank **** ESD comes before the playoffs

 

[kcvols1]

My silver lining is I didn’t travel to see this in person.

Currently three Jacks in under my baseball national championship blanket.

Snug as a bug, son!

 

[Ernie McCracken]

Ryan you won... call the dogs off. much as i hate to say it.

Now, im not calling for any heads but embarrassing....Nice work OSU. Thumbs up

 

[Frozevol]

That’s it. Screw whiskey,,going to tequila
