Haven't had a chance to visit the forum in a few days with the holidays and all.
First off, Congrats to the fans of the Skunk Weasels from the north, they played a great game. I am very envious of their offensive line. They pushed the tOSU D line around at will. They played a great game. Haskins had a great day rushing and while he had many holes opened for him, he ran hard and gained plenty of yards after contact.
Defensively, they were a stone wall against the run and those 2 D ends kept the pressure on the tOSU offense all day long. Hutchinson is great player and will be glad that is the last time he plays in this game.
As for tOSU, they have some things to work on. The first thing I would do is go looking for a real defensive coordinator. This little experiment with Barnes and Coombs has run its course. I've not been impressed with their schemes nor their adjustments. I'm also a little disappointed in the D Line and wondering if Larry Johnson has lost his edge. That performance Saturday was pathetic. I'm not trying to take away from the great play of the Skunk Weasels, but tOSU's line play was terrible.
While I was impressed with TTUN's performance, I will be rooting for the Hawkeyes. (That will also be hard as I have a coworker that is a long time Iowa fan and would hate to give him something to brag about.)
