But that is the standard Ohio State must have. Anything less than a championship is a failure. That may be true, but it's also what is wrong with sports at any level other than professional. There are plenty of life lessons that are learned in defeat. Running good people out of jobs isn't always the best course of action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is, Lagow will throw a costly pick 6 and it will be over....but hopefully we cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE DUKE Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 21.5 point spread and Kevin Wilson looking for revenge? I wouldn't be placing any bets on IU to cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theJ Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I'm confused. Is this a thread for OSU or the Bengals. Oh right, no one cares about preseason game #4. Carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrCincinnati Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 Most players are resting tonight, but it should be noted that Tra Carson won't play tonight. That pretty much destroys his chances of making the team now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beck Bristow Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Evans is a stud I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care if he's playing against subs, he's the best LB outside for Burfict that has played for us in a while. Granted Nick Vigil has looked great this preseason as well, so he's also in the running... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vigil and Rey are going to play quite a bit too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He missed a 60 yarder and a ?? yarder? Bullock also missed a 47 yard potential game winner. So there's that too. That's been his knock so far in his career. So Elliott isn't out of it yet. I think if Bullock had nailed the 47 yarder it'd be over right now. But now the coaching staff has something to think about. EDIT: 46 yard miss for Elliott. Yeah, going to be a long debate over this position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, going to be a long debate over this position. If you are looking for evidence to support Elliot, he made the 46 yarder on the first try before the false start/time out/whatever caused the re-kick And the 60 yarder had the legs, but drifted to the left of the goal post at the last second. It looked true coming off of his foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, going to be a long debate over this position. Just to be clear, in my very honest opinion (as crazy as it sounds), I think they should keep both guys on the 53 man roster. They will have to release another guy anyway after Jones comes back, so cut one of them once he's back. Gives them more time to decide, incase Bullock really plays terrible in the first game.
