Game thread for Ohio State vs. Northwestern

[lou v]

Passing and kicking will be an adventure today. And remember...Ohio State's No. 1 RB (TreVeyon Henderson) is out, and their No. 2 (Miyan Williams) is available but coming off of an injury.

 

[phatcat]

Let's go...Mother Nature!?!?

 

[cattul]

This is the best possible environment we could have hoped for.

 

[Eurocat]

Say hi to Tony Gerdman if you see him in the Press Box from "Eurocat".

 

[Eurocat]

Cant believe OSU is trying to pass.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Two runs into the middle of Ohio State’s fierce F d line. Coming out conservative on a team like this.

**** Pat Fitzgerald’s offensive philosophy of failure.

 

[Eurocat]

I don't expect him to throw, what else is he supposed to do?

We don’t have the offensive talent to do much else.

But yes, that stems from Fitz’s failed offensive philosophy.

Nice to see our offense looking as crisp as ever!!!!!!!!

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Nice play by Tomi there! Hope to see some more out of him today.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Wind for MVP

 

[FeralFelidae]

Why are they throwing it at all?

By the way, I have a ticket, but I'm recovering from a cold, so with this weather, I'm watching from home. But I did not sell or give my ticket away.

 

[cattul]

Even the Wildcat formation is terrific today! I’m a weather fan.

The Cats are feeling their oats.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

This is much better. A mix of different run concepts and the ball getting out in space a lot. Much better, looks nice.

 

[mesacat]

Where has this team been all season?

 

[AdamOnFirst]

STOP THE COUNT

 

[Titanium999]

Looking great 👍! Let’s get an interception too!

 

[freewillie07]

STOP THE COUNT

Was waiting for you to post this.

 

[NUCat320]

I BELIEVE

 

[FeralFelidae]

Looking great 👍! Let’s get an interception too!

Eventually, Ohio State will figure out that they shouldn't be throwing the ball into the wind.

 

[NUCat320]

STOP THE COUNT

 

[catfans5]

Wow. The OSU fans in the stadium got very quiet. Made sitting at these games in person worth it.

 

[GECat2]

I can't believe we are winning!! I will enjoy this for however short this lasts!

Another nice play by Tomi!

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Was waiting for you to post this.

It made me so happy

 

[phatcat]

This is such fun. I hope it lasts

 

[cattul]

Nobody is happier than ABC.

 

[Titanium999]

Absolutely huge stop!

 

[FeralFelidae]

TWO big stops on 3rd and short.

The D ate their Wheaties today.

 

[FeralFelidae]

AND 4TH AND SHORT!

 

[NUCat320]

This is insanity. So much energy.

 

[fcmchi]

Where was this run stop D all year? Go CATS!!

 

[Titanium999]

Flawless!

 

[EvanstonCat]

Hell Yeah Xander Mueller!

What happened to these Cats?

The weather I guess

 

[wildcatcoaster]

Should have called timeout to have more plays downwind.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Nobody is happier than ABC.

I dunno, I’m pretty happy, this is very amusing. Plus, Tomi is having a great day so far in a big game for him.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Hell Yeah Xander Mueller!

What happened to these Cats?

The weather I guess

They’ve got all the LBs and Heard basically just charging psychotically downfield whenever they can since it’s impossible to throw deep anyway.

 

[WestCoastWildcat]

Great 1st quarter for the Cats. They look inspired and the OSU players are frustrated. Go Cats!

 

[EvanstonCat]

I wish the game were just one quarter.

7-0 Cats!

Well, now the Bucks have the wind. I guess it was great while it lasted.
