Was a great finish, but passing the ball 5 times a game isn't going to help anybody. They can't have him keep handing it off every play, need to let him throw it.

Well that's what he should have been doing during Akron and Toledo. So that you could trust him to throw it by now. I agree they need to pass more but they did just beat Wisconsin with less than 10 passes so I will give them a pass on this one. Pun intended.

It helps the team. I was as skeptical as anyone that they would beat Wisconsin being one dimensional. But they beat Wisconsin the way they beat us last year. You knew what was coming every play, but they couldn't stop it. The offensive line played great, and Miller is getting more and more comfortable every game.

He seemed overwhelmed by the media attention...he will need some coaching up in that capacity:D. The most important thing is that he wasn't overwhelmed on the field!:thumbup:

I agree but I guess my point is there were plenty of opportunities mix in a play action, screen, or even throw them off by going deep. They won the game by going one dimensional, but they did it with 20 seconds left throwing a deep pass to a wide open receiver.

We get it. You were at the game in the front row, you don't have to mention it in every thread you post in.

Per the topic, Miller looked good last night. A few "freshmen" bonehead decisions, but those will be corrected. A couple of beautifully placed passes that were dropped. Kid is going to be a heck of a player as long as he stays healthy.

Still give me Pryor over Miller. One play isn't going to make me go insane lol. Miller has potential but not quite there yet.

If they woulda kept Zwick in, we'd be 3 time champs.

Miller looks more natural throwing the ball. TP just never looked comfortable with his throwing motion for some reason. Also, Braxton looks like he runs harder, with a little more aggression (and definitely some more quickness/juke moves). Maybe TP looked different because he's so much bigger.

Time will tell, but I like Miller's potential.

Miller doesn't have that scared, what the hell is going on look on his face that he had the first couple of games. It's too bad that he didn't start from game 1, his progress would be much further along. I'm starting to think that OSU can give Michigan a game, something 3 weeks ago before the Illinois game I didn't believe possible. The tough part of the schedule for them is over, maybe they can run the table, it's not totally out of the question anymore. You can watch Miller's confidence grow with each bit of success that he has, his potential is unreal. Tom Luginbil called him today a Pat White with a stronger arm, (I'd take that)

I don't know why everyone is getting on CC for sitting the first row at an OSU football game. I think that's a pretty cool experience, especially at the Shoe watching one of the top schools in the country vs another top school in the country.

I know Miller didn't have hugh numbers throwing the football, but his receivers didn't help out much. Stoneburner & Philly both turned nice throws into dropped balls. I think we'll see him air it out quite a bit this coming week.

Front row seats are terrible, particularly on the sides of the field.

Come to think of it, but it always seemed Pryor, especially his first 2 years, always had abysmal passing stats. Miller will get better but for right now he reminds me a lot of Troy Smith(Junior Year) in the sense he always would rather run than check down all receivers.
