Did his teams use a QB for anything other than hand the ball off?
They threw more than The Ohio State!
No they didn’t. During the 70’s OSU dominated Mich at QB with Rex Kern, Cornelias Green and Art Schlichter. Once Earl Bruce took over after Woody they opened the passing game up even more with Karsatos. UM didn’t catch up till the late 80’s but even then didn’t throw the ball as often under Bo.[/QUOTE
The original post was about Woody,no other OSU coach
I don't think Alabama will make it this year
Minnesota did damn near everything possible to lose their game against Iowa and still only barely lost to them... Then, to one-up themselves, their head coach screwed them out of (potentially, but highly likely they would've gotten it) a touchdown that would've tied the game at 20 each with a good amount of time left.
That does make the Big 10 more interesting though... And I'd love to see Penn State beat Ohio State to double down on the interesting
OSU has played way to many nothing burger teams.
Will it catch up to them when forced to play top teams?
I got a feeling that OSU will still be fine. They are crushing each and every nothing burger team (as they ought to), so they've been consistent there. They also handily beat a decent Wisconsin team. Other than that one game, they have yet to be adequately tested against any "good" team. With that said, only Michigan State and Wisconsin have held them below 40 points of offense.
The Penn State game should be a semi-decent indicator of where OSU is in the grand scheme of things. But even then, that's not LSU, Clemson, Alabama, Georgia, etc...
No, Bama won't make the playoffs this year. A good bowl game is all we have to look forward to.
Yeah, that was rather odd... but to be fair, so did FL Atlantic... The other thing that was odd was that OSU backed off (only scoring 56 points)... They could've easily scored a few more TDs if they wanted to...Rutgers scored 21points! And OSU didn't meet the spread,against Rutgers who should be in the MAC not the Big Ten.
Yup.Penn State should give us an idea.
I'm looking forward to the impending Georgia - LSU matchup. Old style SEC defense and stale offense against a seemingly unstoppable offense.
LSU has had a pattern all yr. of jumping out to a good lead, then their defense starts getting lazy.
I think Oregon oughta get "rewarded" (at least not get overlooked) for the simple fact that they scheduled Auburn as a non-conference game instead of scheduling all complete patsies like the other top-tier schools did...Oregon, Utah, Oklahoma or Baylor deserve a shot assuming they win out going into their conference championships. Utah and Baylor are the redheaded stepchildren. One of those four teams will get screwed out of the CFP and for bama to get in two teams will have to get screwed.
Almost guaranteed a one loss team will win their conference championship so I see almost no path for bama.

My point is still valid. Woody did play an ultra conservative brand of football but so did the vast majority of college teams as the rules favored defense and the run game. Crossing routes and slants, over the middle, so common today would have been a good way to get your receiver decapitated.No they didn’t.

I remember a number of Rose Bowls,when OSU showed up to play USC who had a world class back,And could pass and OSU was out classed
