Andre Ware, or was it Sean King. That had to be the biggest choke performance I have ever seen for a Heisman winner. What a horrible exhibition, that should drop him about 4 or five rounds come April.

Come on, I dont like Ohio State at all, but the guy had no time to throw...no running game...and nobody to stretch the field.

It was bad, and he definitely didnt play like a heisman winner...but you cant pin it all on him.

The sweater vest definitely was not prepared or have a proper gameplan.........they had no running game b/c they didnt run the ball!!!!! I couldnt understand why.........pittman avg 6.2 yards a clip on a mere 10 carries, he abandoned the running game way to early

I totally agree...the coaches not the players are to blame for this one...

Coaching can only go so far, its up to the players to execute...and when they can't execute that usually means they are NOT AS GOOD.

Your right for the most part but where was the coaching last night...4-1 (coaching)...no commitment to the run (coaching)...playing a zone coverage defense with three linebackers in coverage (coaching)...not even attempting to blitz Leak (coaching)...no adjustment what so ever to defend the roll out pass (coaching)...not adjusting the defense to slide when FL was stacked to one side (coaching)...

Look this loss is on the coaching staff...

See the other thread. Have you lost your mind entirely?

Are you telling me that Florida doesn't have better players than Ohio State?

Marra, I concur somewhat, the coaching staff on Ohio state, certainly wasn't prepared for Florida s speed defensively. And going for that 4 & 1 on your own 28 was a completely ridiculous decision in a 24-14 game in the first half is without a doubt panicking. But Smith definitely played poorly, I can't remember not 1 pass thrown well. And he took several huge sacks where he lost 10 or 15 yards, those are killers and can and should be avoided.

Troy Smith's season was over the night he won the Heisman trophy.......he's not the first one it happened to.......it's called the heisman trophy jinx........when a quarterback wins the heisman their teams are now 3/7 in the title game

Well Shaun King did lead his Tulane team to an undefeated season..Troy Smith not so much

ok dude after re-reading your post I realized it was just total frustration bullshit.
Andre Ware didn't play in a bowl the year he won the Heisman because the Cougars were on probation and Shaun King was not a Heisman winner. ( Tenth in the balloting)
