Urban Meyer??????

Why the hell did he throw the low% pass to start his last sequence? Less than 2 mins, Bama only 2 TO's left, if he runs all 3 they have about 45 secs to get a TD. They almost did as it was.

 

[CHOPTALK]

They would have had more time then that.
That call was kind of a coin flip on if it was proper strategy.

The risk vs reward on that play was pretty close to equal assuming no INT.

 

[silver7]

No they wouldn't have, was less than 2 mins to start. 2 runs 2 TO, then a 3rd w/a full clock run off & a punt less than a min, & need A TD not a FG. Way more risk than it was worth IMO! BTW how're those Aints doing.

 

[TheFalls]

loved that play call...but it would have been way better on second down. love it. close it out.

Nope. 50 seconds max....more likely 40-45 seconds. Strange and idiotic move by Meyer.

This. That was the dumbest move I've ever seen. You give them 3 doses of Ezekiel and punt the ball and leave them 50 seconds with no timeouts to go 85-90 yards.

If it was that little time then ok. Thought it was more.
Still not so -/even that it's a huge deal but yes slightly -/even

Just found it odd because worse case scenerio you punt with 40-50 seconds. Passing the ball puts int, strip sack in play. Running with hot back who was having a field day against the defense seems like the smart play...

I think it was stupid and was a big deal. Almost cost them the game.

 

[The Guesser]

It was an idiotic call. What was worse was that maroon who intercepted the ball with no time left for Ohio St, and decided to run it out of the endzone. Do these players THINK? Do they know game situations??? The only thing that could happen from him running it out was bad.

 

[IMISREMEMBER]

yep guesser was wandering if that kid had any idea 2 crimson players were ready to swat for a fumble, reminds me of detroit- bears game fucking idiot does not know game situation, and chooses to field a punt inside his fucking 10 yard line with 45 seconds left in half and than attempts a half ass attempt to catch than muffs thus setting up a 1st half backdoor cover for the fucking da bears mutha fucket pisses me off........................

 

[Murphy8276]

If the pass was completed for a td or 1st n goal/etc people would say he stepped on gas peddle all game and had extreme confidence in his team (this is true either way).. I dont think it was a horrible horrible decision, but as an OSU fan I definitely dropped jaw a bit like what is going on....in the end I think it was ballsy, but he wanted the control of the game in the bucks hands and not bamas with the worse case being the defense could still stop them. He may have also just had enough faith and confidence to believe in elliott to make the 1st down in 2 plays instead of 3...
