Fickell clearly likes Bauserman as his #1. Probably was planning to play Miller until OSU couldn't seem to grab a lead until the end of the 3rd quarter.Terry_Tate;892419 wrote:Like I said in the other one, could we see Jacory Harris and Joe Bauserman start, only to see Stephen Morris and Braxton Miller finish it? I think no doubt Stephen Harris finishes, but it will be interesting if OSU is down in the second half and Bauserman is doing bad if Braxton comes in. Still can't believe he didn't get a drive this week.
He definitely does, but how bad does the offense and Bauserman need to be before he gives Miller a chance? If he didn't trust him passing should have at least brought him in to run the ball a few times as the ground game was not good at all.slingshot4ever;892432 wrote:Fickell clearly likes Bauserman as his #1.

Like I mentioned in the other thread, the quotes from the coaching staff seem to lead one to think that Miller has a problem with taking care of the ball, be it fumbles, INT's or just stupid decisions. It was obvious that they didn't play Miller because of some issue with his play. While he seemed exciting against Akron's 2nd team, Bauserman looked like a very solid QB against their first team. Miller may be one of those guys that you just need to play through his mistakes because of the spark he can give you, but I don't know that the coaching staff will take the chance when the game is super tight. You either have to rotate him in from the start, or you have to wait until the game is won or lost.Terry_Tate;892439 wrote:He definitely does, but how bad does the offense and Bauserman need to be before he gives Miller a chance?

The Oline was moving people, the RB's just can't find a hole to save their life. At one point Hyde got the ball, there was a gaping hole two steps to his left and he ran right up the Center's back. :laugh:redstreak one;892505 wrote:Hoping the Bucks oline can move someone this week, OSU by a TD.
LOL. Why do you have to pick the Buckeyes, just because you're an OSU fan?!dwccrew;892834 wrote:As an OSU fan I have to pick the Buckeyes in this one, but a loss wouldn't shock me at all.
OSU 24-21
Because I think they are going to win, but as a Buckeyes fan I may be biased. Having as many starters out as we do is going to effect OSU big time; which is why I wouldn't be shocked if they lost. OSU is the better team, but they might not be this weekend considering 1/3 of the team is out.Scarlet_Buckeye;892890 wrote:LOL. Why do you have to pick the Buckeyes, just because you're an OSU fan?!
I'm with this prediction, although I wonder when and how much we will see of Miller. It was tough to watch Bauserman on Saturday. Nothing against, the guy, but he just doesn't have "it"....its part of the game.vball10set;892958 wrote:OSU by 7 w/Miller seeing some time...however, IMO we can't, and won't, win games against better opponents with JB at QB
