In What Universe Reality Could We Beat OSU?

[ryoder1]

I know we have games before this one and we could lose them but let's talk about this OSU game.

I can't find a point spread. I think right now it would be around 10.

How could we possibly beat them? Is there any way we can beat them?

I think the first thing is the Knowles factor and the fact that he knows their personnel and tendencies well. So we would have to hope that Knowles can outcoach Patricia. At the beginning of the season I would say that is certainly possible but now I am not confident at all. Plus we don't have Rojas so our defense would have to play out of their mind. This means DDS, Durant, the DTs, and all others have a great game. How do we contain them? Sayin is playing well so you can't just say make him beat you but maybe thst is it. They have great WRs and a great OLine. What is their weakness on offense? I guess it is Sayin or perhaps not an AA RB.

On offense we would need Allar and the offensive line to have a great game. Give Allar protection, run Kaytron, keep ball away from OSU. TEs and WRs play well maybe Ross with a long catch.

On top of all that somehow get a turnover.

Maybe I will feel a little better about our chances after the next two weeks but currently I give us maybe a 5-10% shot.

This game lines up to be an embarrassment for PSU. If PSU does all the things mentioned above on Offense and Defense, we have a chance. OSU is going to be 2 steps faster than UCLA, their defense under Patricia looks better than expected, and their new QB with 5 starts is rolling. The are playing in their own barn and PSU is not a hard team to prepare for. NO ONE on OSU is saying ..... oh man... this PSU team is going to be a dog fight. PSU scares no one. They will pass and run on PSU without too much issue and shut down our run. I can see Allar getting picked a time or two and getting sacked also. Six games in and PSU does not have an identity on either side of the ball.... On Offense, no one know what they are doing and on D we are blitzing from the safety position 15 yards off the ball.... I dont know.

The physicality of OSU vs PSU is a mile. PSU is soft. Nothing is scary about PSU. PSU does not play hard nosed tough football. This is the worst. PSU used to be tough and now we are a bunch of gamers. Our players make an ordinary tackle and strut around like they did something great. When I am watching... I just sit there and think of all the great PSU players who made great plays at crucial times...and they just went back to the huddle. Sadly...... we are soft and weak ..like James Franklin.
