The Hangover

[Purplehorn3]

I am curious to see how this team responds to such an emotional win.  In the past, the "hangover" seems to come after a win versus Oklahoma.  I remember only too well the lopsided loss to Arkansas after beating Oklahoma in 1981.  That was our only loss of the year (we also tied UH).

 

We will not lose to UTSA, however I am slightly worried that we might play sloppy...give up big yardage plays, penalties, etc...I hope we can maintain focus and keep grinding.

On the flip side, how will OSU respond to such a devastating loss?  Ryan Day and his staff have their work cut out for them...oh well, Screw'em!

Ohio State plays Kent State. They could win that game with their 3rd string hungover and running the same play every time.

There's no excuse to play that sloppy against UTSA. If this team wants to win a national championship they need to prove to each other that the mistakes last week will be fixed. It's up to the coaching staff to drill that in their heads this week.

This schedule is such a gift after winning against Ohio State. We got our legs against Texas State, battled adversity against Ohio State, the chance to get the right against UTSA, and then follow that up with the team to prove that they will show up against Tennessee when they couldn't last year against Florida. Then we get a bye! This schedule is the blue print in creating a battle tested and great team.
