Agree 100%. If we had McGahee in OT we definitely score at the end. Not to mention that he had just started to wear down the OSU defense when he was hurt.
I still get sick about that. I was calling for the McGahee screen all night (hoping for the FSU screen expectation). I dunno what Doss saw but he knew it was coming and blew him up.
I still hate OSU but they were really well coached under Tressel. Most of our offensive success that game was due to individual talent as opposed to game plan and scheming. Dorsey was under more pressure that game than any game that season.
Absolute coaching mismatch. I think Clappy was drinking the same Kool-Aid the team was about how they would roll an OSU team that was lucky to be there. They only had like 260 yards all day but we could not run on them and turned it over 5 times. The biggest factor was we could not keep Craig "flucking" Krenzel in the pocket. He killed us on scrambles. We win that game 9-10 times though (I know we got robbed by the PI flag).
Don't forget, he kept Gore on the sideline, Gore could have played. He didn't want to waste a year of eligibility for Gore. Gore left early anyway.
I remember when our guys used to feed off of that mentality.
Should have burned the shirt on Gore, yes. But really it should have never came to that, we were sloppy, not well coached and overconfident and they actually had more talent than we gave them credit for and a huge edge in coaching. But 5 TO's and a slow, white QB rushing for 90 yards combined with a bad flag and we saw the result. Still hurts to this day.
Yeah, it was one of those wrecks you see coming far before the collision but can't look away. The way Doss broke it was like he had some read it was coming IMO.
That's because our OL was used & abused by OSUs DL.....
It was Will Allen who hit McGahee, not Mike Doss.
My mistake, I keep thinking Doss, probably because he seemed to be all over the field that night. I just know that whatever DB it was, he saw it coming
F him....and his "Throat Slash" after the hit....but of course...no flag....I hope that MFer rots in **** asap....
you would pick Jackson over Lamar Miller?
Has to be based off college, he did have a 2000 yard/24 TD season. Same with Tre mason, he did nada in the NFL
(in college...Yes....)
