LJ Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 That sounds like the exact opposite of what I'd expect. Fickell got most of his "knowledge" under Heacock who was all about getting pressure with the DL and playing zone. Meyer was the one pushing for more pressure/blitzing in the early part of last season. Specifically after the UCF game and I remember one of the earliest plays in the next game (Cal) due to Meyer asking for that was a CB blitz which resulted in a sack by Roby. In other news... 30 for 30: Youngstown Boys Debuts on December 14th and focuses on "The interconnected journey and evolving relationship of two former Ohio State stars -- RB Maurice Clarett and coach Jim Tressel." Meyer is of the Charlie Strong scheme. They didn't run one blitz in the 2006 national championship against Ohio State. It was all drop eight and get pressure with the defensive line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 Rutgers is pretty decent lol. Their 1 loss was by a point in OT and they beat a mighty SEC team (Arkansas), which is more impressive than any win Louisville has at this point. It's on Thursday night which has proven over the years to be upset night, I like their chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bicranium Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 NW is going to throw for 500 yards against them...44-38 type game wouldn't surprise me NW just gave it everything they had against OSU. Wisconsin had a bye week to stew over their loss to OSU. Had OSU decided to grind it out earlier and not turned the ball over 3 times they could have pounded NW to death with the run as well. Wisconsin will get back to the 350ypg rushing they had prior to the OSU game and NW will just have to take it. Not sure why you think NW is going to double their average passing total... There's a reason Wisconsin opened as a 10-point favorite for this game and it's already gone up to 10.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1fast5gp Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 NW vs Wisconsin will be a good game. Well at least I hope. If NW is still hung over from the tOSU loss, then they will get blown out. IMO, Wisconsin is the better team. NW got a few breaks and game was only close from Braxton Millers loose handling of the ball and buckeye defense not having Bryant. If tOSU sees NW at the end of the year, NW will get blown out.

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Not sure why you think NW is going to double their average passing total... . Umm prob cause they lit up OSU's secondary which I feel is better than Wisconsins, 500 was a random number I threw out there. I do see them lighting up Wisky's pass defense though.

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 So I thought OSU was wanting to schedule harder opponents? They must feel Hawaii is real close to turning the corner cause they were just scheduled for 2015 http://www.staradvertiser.com/news/breaking/227128881.html?id=227128881&src=em This also makes the chances of the Northern Illinois game being canceled that much greater. OSU's schedule looks soft again outside of Va Tech who will prob be terrible by time that game comes around. This puts OSU at 10 games in 2015, interested in seeing who the other 2 teams will be Hawaii @Va Tech @Indiana Maryland Penn State @Rutgers Minnesota @Illinois Michigan St @Michigan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10phone2 Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 U of Hawaii football is a fucking joke right now and will still be. Norm Chow ran out any decent coaches and can't recruit worth a shit. If UH could simply recruit consistently the offensive/defensive line from Kahuku and Waianae public high schools out in Hawaii, they would be top 25 in the country. The problem is June Jones(two coaches ago) pissed off quite a few local high school coaches out there so they are going to the west coast schools instead. Hawaii is on there simply for a recruiting perk. Get to go there for free, chase around mixed asian girls for a week, and enjoy the over the top night life.
