And he knows every players name correctly. Where they are from. How their mom's spaghetti is cooked.
Yep. Should have taken the points. Not sure what Utah has for kicking though. Big momentum swing especially since Utahs D can't stop 11.
Herbie may be an annoying OSU homer, but knowing those things actually makes him a good announcer.
Their entire D looks beat down from chasing OSU all over the field. They better hope for another OSU turnover or 2.
Yeah. That looked pretty ugly. Glad he at least walked off then. I was worried when he didn't move his legs or arms.
Saw this stat 1-2 TDs ago. Basically the last 3 non Covid years OSU has had 3 historic QB seasons in conference history. I'm getting a little tired of this, surely they'll miss on a QB eventually right?. As a Chicago Bears fan it feels like watching the Packers move from one HOF QB in Favre to another in Rodgers.
Most TD passes in single season by B1G QB, all-time:
50 - Dwayne Haskins, Ohio State (2018)
41 - C.J. Stroud, Ohio State (2021)
41 - Justin Fields, Ohio State (2019)
39 - Drew Brees, Purdue (1998)

He doesn't know that stuff because of his announcing skills though. What kind of details have we gotten about Utah?
He keeps reciting the one CB was committed to OSU. And that's it.
Whatever Day said at half time must have worked. I'm sure it wasn't pleasant, he looked pissed in his half time interview. OSU D looking much better second half.
Stroud is dropping dimes into windows that most QB's only dream about. Most here believe our secondary is (was with Brisker included) the strength of the 2021 PSU defense, but I don't believe they would have done any better than the Utes are doing tonight.
How many of the TD's that Stroud has thrown tonight would Clifford have overthrown by 5 yards? At least half of them, but probably more.
And the young oh-high-ya WR's have shown up big tonight. I'm afraid oh-high-ya will put up 50 on PSU next season.....
I gave up on Utah after their QB was hurt but dang, this is a fun game. Hopefully the Utes' defense can hold on for 1:54 and get to OT. Or better yet, snag a turnover.
You're right there. He's not bad doing other games but terrible doing OSU. And I'll put the "not bad" as a fairly low bar. Announcing teams overall seem to be awful the last few years.
And Stroud is facing little pressure from Utah’s DL. He has all day to find #11.Stroud is dropping dimes into windows that most QB's only dream about.

Yup, and their backup comes in, looks prepared and in command. What a novel thing to see! Hmmm….
Another waste of my time. I saw this depressing ending coming 2 hours ago. Bad guys win again. This bowl season sucks.
But they are still way ahead of the rest of the Big Ten sadly. Their offense is going to be really good next season.
Not sure what Whittingham was thinking.
Kind of like Day taking his time out with 12 seconds on the clock. Confusing.
What are the odds when then cameras stop rolling, Herbie will find a quiet place where he can have some quality alone time to pleasure himself.
I agree in part, but not completely. Next season I see them running into two or three teams with shutdown defenses which may result in losses. If my prediction comes to fruition, their fan base, donors and alumni will be rabid demanding a HC change.

It seems the clock actually ran down to 12 seconds. I thought after the run on first down that oh-high-ya would get to the line quickly and run another running play and likely score the TD, and if they didn't then call the TO.
I'm usually sad when oh-high-ya wins, but PSU looking so unprepared, Clifford throwing like a freshman and then knowing he will be back to overthrow 2/3rds of the open deep receivers next season, got me rooting for someone (i.e. some team) to uphold the B10 as a legit conference. To do otherwise would be to root the rest of the conference down so that a sorry PSU team could win more games, which doesn't make sense to me. PSU has to somehow up the standard of game day play, and from what I've seen this season that is going to require more consistent high level recruiting of players that are ready to play at a B10 championship level as true or redshirt freshmen. We see that from oh-high-ya consistently, and we rarely have seen it so far from Franklin's teams. And we sure didn't see that today from PSU, somewhat possibly as a result of Franklin's misguided (I believe) focus on redshirting all his freshmen. Get the best players on the field. Period. And if today's PSU players that were on the field were the best players we are in for a long 2022 season.....
There was definitely less than 40 seconds left on the clock when Henderson got tackled. I thought it was 27-29. In the scheme of things it didn't matter, but it was a head scratcher when you could have bled more clock.
We don't need osu winning more. It doesn't help us in the slightest.
Didn’t Penn State play OSU this year? Clearly, Penn State’s defense did better than Utah. Stroud is a very good QB, but it sure is a lot easier to go through your progressions and throw more accurately when you have all day to throw. He could have ordered a coke and ham sandwich before deciding which receiver to throw to on a number of plays tonightStroud is dropping dimes into windows that most QB's only dream about.
