Joe is a dumbass for not going for it on 4th and 2 on OSU's 38.

Instead, they send OSU 18 yards back and they run out of the clock.

Worst. Decision. Ever.

Two things football teams SUCK at which they could easily be way better at...

1. NOT BLOCKING IN THE BACK ON KICKS. WTF? I mean seriously, almost 40-50% of the time there is a block in the back on kick returns. Is it really that freaking hard to not block the guy in the back? The refs watch this like hawks, jeez.

2. Failing to down the ball inside the 10 yard line. Coverage teams look like blind, clumsy fools when the ball hits inside the 10 and somehow rolls past 8 guys who are all stumbling or not looking.

If it happens so much maybe it isn't as easy as you think. Have you ever tried to down a punt inside the 10?

QFT

Another bad move to add to the list:

3. Refusing to go for it on 4th and short early in the game. Just because it is not the fourth quarter doesn't mean that you should not go for it on fourth and short inside your opponent's territory. If your chance of making it on 4th and 1 (or 2) is better than hitting a FG or downing the ball inside the 5 yard line, go for it dammit!

These guys are amazing athletes, they can do it better. I think the key is these are both special teams related, and they practice special teams stuff significantly less.

And the punt from the 38-42 yard line thing, ya, that's so freaking retarded. This of course is on the coaches, not the players, but I've seen enough 18-20 yard punts to make my eyes bleed.

Thats true, ST's are practiced a lot less. The problem then lies in coaching imo.

Player management: horrible

My biggest beef with Meyer is the way he has allowed Tebow to be abused. Especially with all that talent you can hand the ball to.

Like today? IMO, the offense was the most diverse we have seen them all season. Perfect player management today. The in-game decisions have been poor at times, but that's not what I am quoting.

Urban Meyer is a good football coach.

That is all.

Also, Ryan Perriloux apparently got arrested tonight(again). Take it fwiw, though, not out in the news yet. Don't shoot the messenger.
