2022 Game #9 | #2 Ohio State @ Northwestern | November 5th, 2022 @ 12:00 PM EST

[Chris]

runs sideways again. Stopped.

I…. i dont get it.

 

[Stark]

NW +38.5 was the easiest money I've made all year.

 

[Kiddo]

This running game is a joke today. Holy crap

 

[Soar]

This running back fucking sucks

 

[Rich]

Guys the run game is really bad. Really bad.

 

[Stark]

I don't care if we're playing Hilliard Davidson, going down 14 in this weather is not good.

 

[Soar]

Whole team looks like they got out of bed about 30 min before the game

 

[Ohio]

We can't run without having the threat of the passing game.

Hopefully having the wind with us this quarter will help the cause.

 

[MGMT]

So there’s just no one on this staff that can be like “hey, I know how we can get a hard.”

 

[daddywags]

Weather doesn't seem to be bothering NW's offense all that much. But then they are going with the wind and willing to let their QB run.

They got to be more creative in the running game. It's the hole in Ryan Day's offense. There is always going to be a windy or rainy game in the big 10 season.

 

[OptimusPrime]

Williams was running through some of these tackles earlier in the season. He doesn't look healthy. But this is still humiliating. If you can't run and can't stop the run, you won't win short of getting 4 turnovers.

It's built into their offense for the QB to run. Stroud doesn't like to run and I doubt they have much installed for him to.

I wish Day kept some of the hybrid position stuff from Urban. At least they could use some of that stuff when we have a QB who can't/won't run.

 

[Rich]

NW not even trying to throw on 3rd and 6 against the wind. If that tells you how bad it is going that way.

 

[Rich]

And for more evidence, not gonna try a FG against it either.
