Like everything, a few weeks from now this won't seem so bad. Let's be realistic. We are 10-3 in our last 13 games but we all know a lot of it has been smoke and mirrors with a roster that still has enormous holes left by the last regime.
Nothing against the guys bc I know they are trying hard but when 4 of your 9 starting OL/DL players are walkons, 1 is a freshman and the other is a converted tight end and your playing against an OL/DL that is 2 deep with 4 stars, on the road at night, this is gonna happen when it gets going the wrong way. It DOES NOT mean we have not made very good strides in the last 18 months on building a team that will one day consistently compete for a big 10 title.
Utter, Conrad, Hahn, Dzuris, Freedom against Ohio State is just never going to be a good matchup.
I know it's hard to be patient, but just keep winning as many games as you can and keep recruiting. If guys like Farniok, Raridon, Wilson, Watts, Guy Thomas, Porcher, Colin Miller, don't pan out, then you can start getting depressed, but Try not to until then.
And try to look at the bright side, that new rugby style punt they tried in the 2nd quarter looked pretty good.
