Game over!!!!
I thought the play calling once they had 1st and goal at the 1 was horrid. They ran inside once for no gain and then got cute when they didn't need to.

The toss to Wisner on 2nd down to the short side of the field was stupid and poorly blocked

They had 3 more shots from the 1

If you can't line up and go get a yard between the tackles something is wrong.

Sark outsmarted himself there.

Dang it I hate seeing the Buckeyes win

Got to say it was a great play by Sawyer, he’s had a great playoffs…
Ohio haven’t been great today, but they got the job done… I think if they do play well against ND, they’ll beat them by a couple of scores.

Ohio state will roll ND unfortunately. That will be a savage beating

I think not. You may want it that way but I doubt it.
Ehhh, OSU was gonna be a heavy fave whether it was PSU or ND. They were clearly the most talented team left IMO.

ND just opened as a 9.5 pt dog.

Agree 100%. Even if you don’t get in, it’s highly likely OSU is pinned well inside the 5. Trust your D to get a 3 and out and you’ll have very good position and plenty of time.

Ewers would be foolish to go pro...I don't care how weak this draft is for QBs, it's not like teams are going to settle for drafting him in the 1st round just because there aren't any good QBs. Do what Carson Beck did, transfer and get as much NIL for one more year. Or even if you don't get any good NIL offers, I would transfer to a small school in a non-Power conference and put up great stats as a big fish in a small pond. That might even help his stock for the 2026 Draft

Agreed.

That's probably what he will do. Go to a smaller college and put up huge numbers.

Quinn Ewers knows after tonight's CHOKEFUL PERFORMANCE (just like last year's semifinal playoff chokeful effort by him once again), no team would dare take him inside the first 3 rounds.

Great game. Refs were horrible both ways. OSU got away with like 10’blatant holding calls and a late PI. Missed some on UT too. Changed pace and game

How’d he choke? His O line was dreadful. He made throws that kept them in the game their one drive. I think he needs work but saying he choked is weird.. UT got the crap end of calls. Heck Herbie agreed

Ewers choked big time when it mattered the most. His sidearm throwing motion caused several too highly thrown balls to open receivers which would have kept drives alive. He also had several passes batted down at the line of scrimmage for that very same reason: his stubbornly dumb sidearm throwing motion where the ball comes out so low. Various times in the 1st half, Ewers simply wilt and gave up for easy sacks when he had good protection but refused to run with the ball when his receivers were covered. Then the 2 game costing turnovers by him to end the game after they were within a yard of scoring their 3rd TD, tying the game and sending it into overtime. All signs of choking under pressure.

SMH. :facepalm:

Ewers is a bonafied choker. Dak isn't. Dak can at least scramble and run at times when needed. Ewers can not. Dak throws overhand. Ewers throws a super costly sidearm throwing motion. Dak is a better passer than Ewers. Definitely a better scrambler.
