I agree, guys like Curtis Samuel will be more than serviceable for OSU. The problem that is now presented is that now the Buckeyes have no depth at those positions, so if guys like Samuel and even Braxton are going to be the guys on the field, they might wear down by the end of the game.

I'm a freshman Accounting major. I've been coming to the burg since I was real little and now I'm finally getting to live here. Lets just say it hasn't disappointed yet.

On point three, we covered your WR with one healthy and one dinged up corner. Now they are both healthy. So that is also a change. Just not in aOSU's favor.

Coach Searels has been doing this for a long time, he knows what he's doing. Building depth for a long season is as important as naming the starting 5 OLinemen. I don't expect him to explain every detail of his strategy to opposing fans looking for weaknesses to exploit.

This is really all I've cared about since fall practice started. If Chase was there this year, nothing would stop our defense from being the best in the nation.

Last year, AM had shown flashes but he'd also show plenty of times of being in the wrong hole, being a few steps late, or bad tackling technique . The experience last year and this spring must have helped him improve but how much?

Excellent explanation. Robber coverage, along with inverted cover 2 looks also means that the safeties are moving or looking to move forward at the snap, helping out in the run game and simplifying their reads.

But yes, I would venture a guess that VT's DBs do more film study than anyone else in the country because the scheme requires them to recognize run vs. pass very quickly.

I have no idea how much interaction and control Beijing has on "private" Chinese corporations.

Basically, if you sign on to work in China, the Chinese gov't essentially controls that arm of your company as the contractor whom all work goes through. They get to learn the intricate details of how your operations work in China, and they have the ability to terminate the contract at any point, absorbing all your Chinese employees in the meantime.

Well, thats not entirely true. I went back and watched film and when VT only brought 4-5 guys the offensive line did fine. When VT brought 7-8 guys they got to the QB with ease because we just didn't have the numbers to block every defender. I don't see it as a situation where our offensive tackles were just overwhelmed one-on-one all night against Dadi and Co. I'm sure Dadi won his fair share, but when VT isn't bringing the house I'm confident our o-line can hold its own. However, when VT brings the house I'm obviously aware that the pocket is going to collapse faster than a house of cards. But just saying our offensive line just cant block your D line is not only overlooking reality, but also the brilliance of Bud's scheme.

Umm who invited Mason and Brian to the party?

Edit: My breakout player is RVD. The whole damn show finally stays healthy and the whip stays on the field more and more helping us beat Pitt.

Great write up and interesting to see the variations. I like the Fifth Fuller's optimism!

I think 11-1 with the loss to OSU or Pitt. For the first time in years I am EXCITED about our offense and the Defense should be one of the best ever. If we stay healthy I could even see 12-0! I am definitely on board the Hype Train!!!

Travon McMillan for the breakout player - He is a playmaker and I think they will find ways to get the ball in his hands, could see him in a Percy Harvin kind of role.

Counting the hours to game time - GO HOKIES!!!
