Fitz was, as usual, very gracious in defeat.
Tip my hat and compliment Ryan Day and his staff and players.
Had opportunities to get off the field on defense in the first half.
Then, they went through "the Buckeye onslaught" in the second quarter.
Those were momentum opportunities against, in my opinion, the best team in the country, that we missed.
Thanks students and fans. Challenging first half of the season. Flush it and leave it here.
Playing Marty not Hunter: Played Marty because game was out of reach and he's from Ohio. No injury for Hunter.
Offensive performance: Continually beating ourselves. Lees visibly frustrated. They care so much. They're a great group of guys. That's why my heart breaks so much. Gotta get better fundamentally, work harder, etc.
Question about development of spread, Ryan Day's comments this week, etc.
Thinks Ohio State is the best team in the country.
Is Aidan the starter? Looking at everything. We're not winning. Gotta look at the tape before making any decisions. Times I thought Aidan was really tough. Didn't win enough one-on-ones. Look at it more collectively as a team.
Message to team: Tip your hat to an outstanding team that played well. Tackled well, covered well, fit well.
Allowing explosive plays: Got after us in the red zone. We're usually a really good red zone defense.
Three yards over 50 yards. Misfit on Dobbins' run. Should've been 8-10 yard gain.
All those third downs and five plus.
Gotta get off the field on third down, create turnovers, eliminate explosive plays, make plays when you have a chance.
Punt snap: Not Tyler Gillikin's fault. It was a cadence thing. We were trying to do too much.
Second quarter: We didn't fit. We knew what they were going to run. Makes you angry as a coach.
