I used to coach jr high soccer. Every game we would do that. F**K being sweet and nice. It is a contest!
I would send them out and have them try to get certain types of goals.

So OSU is less efficient and less flashy in their scoring but have still managed to replace their starting QB before the end of the game as many times as Oklahoma, who has routinely decimated their opponents well before the 4th quarter.  Combine that with the margins of victory in the game and Stoops' comments about the BCS and that's why he deserves more flak than Tressell on the subject.

How could the starting quarterback of Ohio State been pulled more than OU's Bradford if Ohio State only had four blowouts?

 

Last time I checked, 7 was a larger number than 4.

OSU has a share of the Big 10 championship this year because of their record which is equal in the conference with Penn State.  The tie breaker structure for BCS bowls does not apply to conference championships.

Share a championship?

Does Ohio State get one of these to carry off the field too?

Because OSU pulls the starter in games other than 30+ point blowouts and still manages to win those games.  Something Stoops apparently isn't comfortable with.  OSU has pulled the starting QB in 7 of 12 games this year, equal to your claim.

Yep, they do.  It's the way the Big 10 has always done it and it's not going to change.  Those of us here don't like it but it is what it is.

7 of 12 games?

I only counted 4.

You only counted the blowouts, I counted the number of games this season that Tressell has put in a backup quarter back, 7 of 12 games.

Maybe Tressell should have left them in, but I guess he's happy with mediocity.

A win is a win, you and Stoops seem to be the ones that aren't happy unless it's by a 35 point margin.

The USC loss they let the backup in because it was a lost cause.  They left Pryor in the Penn State game and he arguably gave the game away with a fumble.

10-2 isn't mediocrity.  Not great, but not mediocrity.

10-2 isn't mediocre, but being able to out points on the board is.

Margin of victory wins games. You put the game away early, and the team gives up. It's up to the coach to motivate the team. The team moves at the speed of their leader.

Yes I will certainly agree that big leads are disheartening, but I have to believe that a 35-7 lead does pretty much the same job that a 49-7 lead does in the 4th quarter.

Oklahoma scores an amazing number of points week after week, but if you're giving up 35 points to Kansas State maybe a 3 TD lead isn't enough for them.

Flynbyu and MadDog...are you two sure you are not married? What a couple of Arguing mutherf**kers you are!

[Flynbyu]

We aren't arguing.

We're having a civilized discussion.

I'd love to see them on the schedule next year.
