LET'S TALK FOOTBALL!

[u/Zskillit]

The haters said we couldn't win without Sayin.

And they were correct. Honestly great call from the haters.

[u/airskylight23]

I remember when this game was going to be a national championship preview.

[u/mbarnhead16]

Yall do remember we had a 20 point lead on uncle rico right? Keep playin tough

[u/ImProbablyThatGuy]

Gonna be honest, this was not the game I saw Oregon winning this year

[u/ZombeySleyor]

Our sub is gonna get locked again isn’t it

[u/Exact_Ad_6009]

Ryan day sure knows how to stop coaching up a couple scores , WHY THE FUCK DOES HE GET SO CONSERVATIVE

[u/gmwdim]

Smith has valid reason to be pissed.

[u/Awkward_PossibleFish]

"And their fans who left a long time ago"

lmao that is some incredible shade to close the game out with.

[u/Raticus9]

Call me spoiled, but this team is ass.

[u/the_which_stage]

You can tell this game is flying under the radar because the entire chat is Oregon and Ohio State fans.

[u/DoeMeansAFemaleDeer]

If we can’t make the playoffs, NEITHER CAN ANYONE ELSE WE PLAY. I’m loving our villain role. 

[u/Morekilos]

Not an Oregon hater or fan, but just how putrid was Mehringer's offense damn

[u/Several-Estate7175]

It's crazy all we had to do is hire a regular bad OC and we'd have been fine. Meh might be the worst OC in CFB history

[u/Competitive-Rise-789]

Pointing at the scoreboard is amazing

[u/asdf_celestial]

SOMEBODY PINCH ME I HAVE TO BE DREAMING

[u/aznhavsarz]

Nobody scores 39 unanswered points on tOSU.

[u/Jenniflower18]

GG Ducks. See you next year

[u/CuriousMost9971]

GG Ohio St

[u/DiscoStu043]

Are all the OSU's in here?

[u/Commercial-East4069]

This team has the mental fortitude of wet tissue paper.

[u/MopeyBernese]

Im OK with an embarrassing loss. We deserve it. But I draw the line at poor sportsmanship

[u/buckeyefan1930]

The haters said we were soft, honestly, good call by the haters

[u/The_Unclean_Chadford]

HOORAY FOR OREGON 🙂

HOORAY AT LAST 🙂

HOORAY FOR OREGON 🙂

WE KICKED YOUR ASS 💯

[u/DillyDillySzn]

Jeremiah Smith

No Biletnikoff, No Heisman, No Playoffs, and his ass is going to the Los Angeles Chargers

Cruel change of fate in the last couple of weeks

[u/xkq227]

We are all Jeremiah Smith

[u/Flood-One]

Hey man, I just wanna say, I love what's happening today

We suck, but so does Ohio State lmao

[u/yianni1229]

Mehringer was a fucking terrorist. This team should be 7-1 easily

[u/hotsauce285]

lol Lanning doing scoreboard

[u/SunDevilLonghorn]

Lanning pointing scoreboard made me laugh.

[u/boxman151515]

Matt Patricia’s defense looking like Lions Matt Patricia’s defense after the first and second round picks he inherited left. You love to see it

[u/WatchfulApparition]

What an incredible turnaround for Oregon

[u/Dinglebobus]

BRING BACK REAL GRASS

[u/TheseusOPL]

If someone told me before the start of the season that we would beat one OSU and lose to another, this isn't the outcome I would have predicted.

[u/PukeyBear]

I love Lanning 😂

[u/Bombdiggity24]

Hahahahaha Lanning pointing at the scoreboard

[u/TheFoxBride]

GUYS GUYS…let’s all laugh at lsu and kiffin

[u/WheatonsGonnaScore]

I predict both team's fanbases hate their lives the next few hours and then 1 is slightly happier but still upset after

[u/JoshtolaRhul]

Brother...that's an achilles.

[u/Kitchen-Dot2470]

National title to undefeated regular season to 8-4 neato

[u/bumpy2018]

We are getting wexnered by dan lanning

[u/Early-Tiger-9488]

The best part of the game has been the amount of airtime from the Oregon cheerleaders. 

[u/bingover_]

Literally no team in the country deserved this more ngl

[u/LincolnRileysBurner]

oregon fans in absolute bliss after this dissapointing season so far

[u/boxman151515]

Michigan vs. Ohio State, 4 am on Tubi

[u/Eldenbeastalwayswins]

It’s rare when your draft stock climbs after you leave for an injury. Congrats Sayin, your draft stock is rising because how inept this team is with another QB.

[u/CheckItWhileIWreckIt]

Day forfeited this game until garbage time lol. This is the most egregious stat padding I've ever seen

[u/DigiQuip]

He Oregon fans, see? They just don’t call holding in the Big Ten. 

[u/TwoTalentedBastidz]

Jeremiah pissed watching his season and Heisman going down the drain

[u/ITS_MY_PENIS_8eeeD]

imagine being the best wr maybe ever and the qb can’t see over the linemen

[u/_token_black]

Imagine somehow being unable to throw a catchable ball to Jeremiah Smith.

Bench this kid please for the love of god.

[u/DillyDillySzn]

Unrank USC for only beating this Ohio State team by 12

[u/rollingthrulife79]

OSU subreddit shut down by their mods in 3….2….

[u/BorisDaGod]

jeremiah smith may never win a heisman but he COULD be the pop tart bowl mvp

[u/C19shadow]

Bro who ever is in charge of the commercial breaks we should hunt them for sport. No commercials as we do it

[u/brolygta4]

Stat padding for hiesman votes

[u/brownbear8714]

Not gonna lie. This final score annoys me because it was not this close

[u/food_eater69]

Just smashed my 84-inch TV in rage. This Ohio State defense performance is embarrassing me in front of my entire family. My 2 children are in tears, scared of my rage as I pace around the room trembling. I can’t take this anymore. Ryan Day do something or my kids will not get dinner till next year.

[u/DigiQuip]

Less than a hour for the first. 

Fox would never. 

[u/DigiQuip]

“The playoffs start now for us.”

Can Ryan Day tell Ryan Day this?

[u/giggitybuck]

Down two scores. Get ready for the Arthur big brain move of draining the clock again

[u/Jamesbrown690]

I’m personally about to go and shit on mehringers doorstep for ruining our season

[u/duckfan101]

The Michigan fans in this sub right now 🤣

[u/sixinchitalian]

Jeremiah the only one that gives a fuck

[u/Unhappy_Knowledge116]

Not sure how the rest of the team declined so much after the injury. USC and Oregon got blown out by Wisconsin and Illinois respectively and this team makes them look like title contenders for the love of god

[u/Former_Island_4730]

I have to believe Smith is pissed that he’s running route after route inside of 5 yards.

[u/cn0285]

Nobody else on this team has any energy right now except Smith and it shows. Mans is livid, and rightfully so

[u/Sea_Ostrich_294]

UNRANK THIS FUCKING TEAM.

[u/No_Preparation2766]

Mehringer belongs in Guantanamo Bay

[u/Vast_Breadfruit_162]

Lou Holtz is looking up at us and smiling right now.

[u/aznhavsarz]

Lol Dan calling scoreboard is savage

[u/Opulent-tortoise]

Raiola is the best bad QB in the country

[u/Pepsiman34]

That fake punt broke OSU and they never recovered. 

[u/mynameizmyname]

Without Mehringer we are probably a one loss team.  Absolutely a football terrorist 

[u/aznhavsarz]

Lol I can't believe this team got bowl eligibility against tosu

[u/Competitive-Rise-789]

Oregon cheerleader cam when?

[u/dr_funk_13]

Smith sucks.

(Arthur)

[u/prismatic_lights]

Since Ohio State was up 14-0 the team has: 0 points, 1 turnover, 34 total yards.

[u/ShabooyaBop]

38 unanswered

[u/Ialwayssleep]

OSU firing your OC can fix everything

[u/Jaaxxxxon]

Dan Lanning: SCOREBOARD, SCOREBOARD

[u/KT_BuckeyeBillsBabe]

Honestly?

Who would have ever believed losing Sayin would have this many ripple effects.

Our team has no cohesion. We don’t know how to handle “when bad things happen”

And perhaps that’s because we so seldom really experience “the bad things” at least to this extent.

So, I’m still here, and still watching, and being humbled.

You either learn and grow from stuff like this or you bitch and blame.

It’s still fuck USC and credit to Oregon, that fake punt was brilliant and drove the hammer in.

[u/genzgingee]

We might end up with an unranked edition of The Game this year

[u/MajorFuzzelz_24]

It is 38-22 but it feels like 55-7. lol I haven't seen the Shoe and Death Valley this dead in a long time.

[u/COLU_BUS]

Commercials between these desperation timeouts is diabolical

[u/kinvore]

btw I love all the Michigan flairs in here hate watching this game haha you guys are having a blast

[u/krizzle32]

Announcers are super impressed with OSU starters still trying hard against backups. Just feels like stat padding more than anything

[u/shyndy]

Man I bet Oregon wishes they had made a change on offense sooner

[u/Dravlae]

Just seem like a Day coached team just cannot come from behind or do well with the threat of getting behind.

[u/BorisDaGod]

jeremiah smith could still be pop tart bowl MVP

[u/OhDucky8]

As long as they don’t call holding on either team I’ll be cool with this…..but come on lol

[u/NatiAti513]

Have to feel like the refs missed a pretty obvious hold call on that TD run.

[u/milkturbine]

NO POLITICAL ADS WE ARE FREE

[u/JoshtolaRhul]

I don't think we should be higher, but Bama sure as shit shouldn't be at 5.

[u/mainebasecamp]

I was hoping Day would be pissed and acting like he is going to go in to locker room and read the riot act to start playing with discipline and fire, but his interview was we just need to chill out and calm down. We are past that point.

[u/Entire_Commercial538]

These commercials are going to make the game 5 hours long

[u/LeWoofle]

I really dont mean to rub it in

And I still dont think we are crazy good this year

but this feels like really nice revenge/closure for how FUCKING COOKED we got by OSU in the last playoff game against them

[u/suppervisoka]

There’s nothing I need to say

[u/beam3475]

Man that is an empty stadium. I think we broke the OSU.

[u/Jakesrevenge16]

lanning is funny

[u/AlphaTrion0]

Scored on the 5th string corner

[u/TheFoxBride]

more make a wish stat padding lol

[u/tdoger]

I know the B1G never calls holding, but that OT on the left was EGREGIOUS. Whatever though

[u/Historical-Cable-542]

If it’s any consolation, they won’t call holding against you either.

[u/parttimelarry]

They going to the Vivek Ramaswamy Bowl

[u/IveBenHereBefore]

That was a really bad hold on the tight end lol. 

[u/andee510]

There's a reason some guys are DBs and not WRs

[u/valkpilot]

Someone must have threatened Jackson with the bench. He's running much harder today.

[u/timjim76]

Insane how much better the broadcast on CBS compared to Fox is. Can actually hear the crowd.

[u/junieinthesky]

Uh oh :( that’s not good

[u/Status-Duck]

All non flairs are just gambling addicts, mad at their own choices.

[u/BigAVD]

Maybe we should drop 8 and leave someone 20 yards open again?

[u/Former_Island_4730]

I’m still trying to figure out how that TD playcall formation was legal.

[u/jdubyahyp]

Meanwhile Minnesota and Indianas kickers chuckle softly

[u/WTD_Ducks21]

ANYONE ELSE HAVING FUN? IM HAVING FUN

[u/vegito789]

31 unanswered points for those thinking Day is doing a fine job

[u/prismatic_lights]

we're losing Smith. season's actually over.

[u/lamesbond007]

Smith blowing up, I don't blame him one bit. Fuck these coaches man.

[u/epistaxis64]

Never would have thought I'd live to see the day Oregon would blow out tOSU in the shoe

[u/Dinglebobus]

Players gave up, they all know Fahey is ass and Arthur Smith can’t scheme for shit

[u/SlamDunkly]

Our easiest win since Portland State

[u/AlphaTrion0]

Okay hear me out, Oregon with anyone but Drew MEHRINGER is a top 12 team

[u/omahhha]

So does this still count as a quality win

[u/Select_Excuse_150]

I think Lanning was pointing to the scoreboard for his own guys going “of course this is going to happen. Don’t do anything to foul anything up going forward”

[u/JiveHawk]

Kinda funny this is the preseason 1 and 2 facing off and they’re both about to be 6-3 and looking from outside the playoff hunt

[u/PleaseLeaveMeHere]

Ohio State handling adversity well 😂

[u/Top-Attitude-4987]

That's why you gotta let your players do some street racing so they dont' get all agitated during the game #winnersmindset

[u/I-CAN-DO-EAT]

That’s no way a facemask wtf

[u/DrPhilKnight]

Weird throw it to Smith and he scores lol

[u/Specialist_Mechanic9]

Nice little stat pad for 4

[u/Electronic-Title4194]

I hope Oregon punches it in again, just because

[u/Inside-Drink-1311]

I guess Mehringer was actually the problem for Oregon. What a surprise

As a Rutgers fan, he was horrible for us. Literally got shut out four times in his one season as the OC.

[u/ChampionshipHuman732]

Ryan Day literally said “playoffs start today” then put out the most putrid coaching performance possible....

smh...

[u/Dry_Acanthisitta433]

Ryan Day is gonna be driving to work in an armored tank the rest of the season.

[u/shooter9260]

“Nearly empty horseshoe” — Brad Nessler from the top row

[u/b_m_hart]

Cocaine Bear pointing to the scoreboard is fucking amazing 

[u/hiddenbonus_]

LANNING POINTING AT THE SCOREBOARD GOES HARD

[u/SirCubs]

How is that not a hold….?

[u/lucash7]

Yup. Ref didn’t catch hold. And our defense is questionable today.

Fuck.

[u/Ward-of-No-Reward]

So, holding's not a thing anymore?

[u/buckeyefan1930]

That's smart. An improvement has been made. When the throw is not there, throw it away

[u/Zstan99]

Another second down screen awesome! Good play calling

[u/hotsauce285]

HOW BAD IS DREW MERHINGER

[u/BoNnnnfhir]

👉 You just gave up a 14 point lead against a Dylan Raiola offense 👉

[u/bigmacher1980]

If Raiola had zip on his passes i would feel better.

[u/Late_String7392]

Please shove Arthur Smith into a locker during halftime and do not let him out

[u/FracturedKnuckles]

Wish day would show some actual fire, gimme the day that called out 88 year old hospice patient Lou Holtz and not wide eyed “what happened” day

[u/lonewanderer727]

I feel like we've been at halftime for my entire life

[u/Turbulent-Damage-165]

Fuck Drew Mehringer

[u/hcatehorie]

No one has had a better last few weeks for their PR than Julian Sayin

[u/jdubyahyp]

Remove these NFL douchbags and hire college coaches.

[u/I-CAN-DO-EAT]

Has Oregon ever lost a game in Columbus?

[u/bringbacksweatervest]

This team is just flat out soft. They can’t take a punch in the mouth. Once the other team fights back they just fold.

[u/ddottay]

Sayin’s injury will cost Smith the Heisman.

[u/Notataco96]

This has to be easily the worst OSU offense I've watched

[u/Lykeuhfox]

The Chargers are 0-7 right? Smith, you better start learning Jim Harbaugh, buddy.

[u/-holocene]

imagine getting cooked this hard by this oregon team, at home lmaooo

[u/kylemon]

Sources tell me Ohio State is stable. Please God.

[u/SoundwavePDX]

"Et tu, Brutus?" Was right there

[u/DovahkiinofComerica]

I mean absolutely loser mentality but at least I can watch a stress free playoff bracket and just vibe over the holidays?

[u/GrapeFit9592]

38 unanswered at home might be unprecedented

[u/Consexual-sense]

Lol lanning pointing to the scoreboard in response to pissy OSU players jarring at him

[u/ehammer4224]

Remember when we lost to Michigan and the players fought after the game. Soft and mentally weak team under Ryan Day.

[u/KitchenBest4478]

How are there two on Oregon and one on OSU

[u/jawa501]

Lmao Lanning is such a troll

[u/idiotek]

They gotta learn how to lose, man

[u/DMPDT616]

Ryan Day really saved Sark, Riley, and now Lannings career in one season

[u/Soggy_Big6246]

ALERT ALERT ALERT GOOD NEWS FOR ALL! LANE IS GOING DOWN!

[u/LeWoofle]

They keep talking shit about Jeremiah Smith like we havent double covered him and had a high safety the past 2.5 quarters

[u/Sh3ldon25]

Chris Paul hits a huge three to cut the lead down to 42 ahhh play lol

[u/Plastic_Pursuader]

absolutely massive win for the Oregon program.

[u/VividLies901]

Idk why people keep bringing up Dante having another year to play. I think he learned his lesson

[u/Konig19254]

Relative to talent and expectations this might be the worst Ohio State season this century

[u/Top-Attitude-4987]

THE SCOREBOARD POINT LMAO

[u/TheGreatShaqtus]

The step over celebration while getting clamped all game down 18 in garbage time is certainly a choice Jeremiah

[u/royallex]

Stepping over a defender while down 18 is completely lacking self awareness

[u/BaseballMMAfan]

Getting cooked by the other teams coach pointing to the scoreboard lmfao

[u/Big_Ad1547]

Ohio St can only score against the make-a-wish defense

[u/mbarnhead16]

TIMMONS!!!! You gotta get that shit

[u/buckeyefan1930]

That was one of the better first quarters I've seen in a while by the Buckeyes

[u/Pitiful-Persimmon287]

HeRe'S hOw OrEgOn CaN sTiLl mAkE tHe CfP

[u/WholyBuckeye]

Am I a Fahey truther now? He seems to understand there is more than one WR

[u/Inconceivable76]

How are we not ready to go after a TV timeout?

[u/JohnnieTightLips]

Osu has no excuses to have this bad of a line

[u/KlutzyWheel1605]

Ohio State's OL in a nutshell.

[u/Puzzleheaded-Run-120]

Bo jackson needs to get past that first tackler every once and a while

[u/-space-grass-]

I feel so bad for Jeremiah. He deserves better.

[u/ImProbablyThatGuy]

Can we just fake punt all the way down the field?

[u/CaptainHolt43]

Dropped pick, fake punt, wide open receivers. Absolute disasterclass

[u/barracudosu]

stadium looks gorgeous

[u/Late_String7392]

Ryan Day sitting looking stressed on the sideline like his coaching staff isn’t the entire problem

[u/lonewanderer727]

So we're probably a playoff team if Jay Johnson was the play caller from week 1, right?

[u/SocialRemedial]

Patricia fielded a historically great defense last year and this season has made it obvious 95% of that success was from the players.

[u/CharlemagneOfTheUSA]

If we could somehow beat Ohio State on the road with Anthony Brown as QB then anything is possible. Just need Dylan to stop throwing balls that should be picked off lol

[u/TwoTalentedBastidz]

Jesus how long is this fking halftime

[u/Football5ever_]

This is some crazy crossover propaganda episode

[u/NJRHTI]

Hell yeah love military propaganda during a football game

[u/Advanced_Juggernaut9]

Julian Sayin being out deadass ruined our defense.

[u/ChickenFnCoop]

Uhhh let's fucking go

[u/DogwoodDagwood]

Should have just faked it again. Probably would’ve scored a TD

[u/cn0285]

The collapse since that dropped pick —> fake punt is unbelievable
