I feel like Mo Toure’s impact has somehow been lost in the wash. He was a force all night, and especially early on when he brought so much physicality. And he even did well covering the flats and laid some hits. We need his level of violence at the MLB position.

Some where in the middle of the season we wrote him off because of issues he had covering downfield, And those issue may still exist, but he makes a lot of really good and important plays, and let’s the other team know what playing UM will feel like for 4 quarter.

Yep, unlike Styles who Fletcher ran through and discarded.

For all we heard going into the game, which team had the better LB’s last night?
And RB’s, QB, Oline, Dline, and DB’s?
Other than the freak talent that is JJ Smith, UM was as good or better at every postion. Caleb Downs was great, but so were Thomas and Scott,.

Downs looked the All-American he is. I made sure the Suckeye fans heard me say, 'He plays like a Cane!' on several occasions. Lol
 
It does indeed stand out the level of violence we play with. There is a difference between playing tough and physical and playing violent. Violent play makes a huge mental impact on the opponent. Last night was a great example. Violence and ****** are not a good mix. Proof is in Columbus. Those boys are trying to get to Minnesota where tampons are in all the vestibules

Poyser too was violent they Carnell Tate scared to come cross the middle stopping midroute to catch and prevent getting hit only to get destroyed by o conner or smith lmfao them boys was getting lit up last night wincing and crying to the refs 😄 🤣 😂
 
OSU 3&out from their 9 in the first half, pretty sure Toure tackled Jackson on first down, broke up the pass on 2nd, then Chase hurried Sayin into an incompletion on 3rd. Was incredible work by our surgically repaired LBers
 
Was a lot of talk about our linebackers getting attacked in coverage but since Louisville im not sure I remember it being an issue.

He's been very solid imo

💯. My brother (UGA fan) was saying that Tate was making business decisions all night. The violence we brought made a lot of Suckeyes question how much they truly wanted to win this game. We made it abundantly clear that we were willing to go there.
 
As the season progressed and he got back into actually playing football i think he has been a top 3 player on D.....and that is with 0, 8, 3, and 4.

Mo has been REALLY good this year and with each game the rust got less and less. earlier this year he was taking bad angles, now he is a **** killer looking to destroy anything he hits. His run fits are really good and when you meet him, you go down.

He's playing really well right now.
