I wasn't impressed with any of those
OSU certainly made all 3 of them look terrible

Well at least Honolulu will remain the capital.

I'm a JT fan. There seems to be a smoother operation going on when he's back there. This "in & out" stuff ain't gonna help either one of them though Urbie. Right now they are not the #1 Team in the Country.

Wrong. They are #1 in the country.

Agreed. it's hurky jerky with 3 guys rotating through that backfield. Don't know who should be the 1 guy though. Cardale looks like he doesn't trust his playmakers, JT is scared to get hit and is releasing the ball too early, and Braxton can't throw the ball yet.

That last point is a farce. There is no one right now that is playing better. Maybe Ole Miss, but they have had 2 straight up scrimmages to get ready for their real season.

Talent wise no question they are the #1 team but two consecutive lack luster offensive performances (until the 4th Qtr) against two really sub-talented teams tells me something ain't right. I would not want to be teeing it up with MSU this week.

I do agree that the offense has been less than impressive but I think we will be okay. I don't like this 3-QB system though; pick your guys and call it a day.

The dumbest thing so far has been the direct snap to Braxton and then he runs every time. At least pump fake a pass before you take off to freeze the LBs. one pass to a split Cardale would give DCs something to worry about all week. I'm very unimpressed so far and need something to remind me of what this team is capable of.

I'm afraid he can't throw. If he can, the first time he does he's going to catch everyone sleeping

I'm with you. I think Miller's shoulder is fucked for life. He may be able to throw eventually out of that package, but that's that's the reason he didn't transfer and made the position switch. He saw the writing on the wall. I know, I know....captain obvious.

I think Braxton will throw a few passes this season. His shoulder might be F'd but a pass every few weeks isn't going to kill him.

Why put that on film in a game vs Hawaii? Have him run it every time and dial up the shenanigans at a later when needed.

to the can Braxton throw point, i work with someone who's got a cousin who works in the orthopedic surgery department at wexner, she tells me he won't have full range of motion in that shoulder for about 4 more months.

i've got no reason to believe she wouldn't know this to be true, but i also have no reason to believe her cousin would actually tell her something like that.

Miller will make one of those Jump passes for a TD sometime this season. Along with the spin move, they will be Heisman plays
