To the OHIO football team,
Tough outing this time around against OSU which could have quite possibly been
due to the fact that this was the first year Ohio State took us seriously and didn't
play vanilla against us. Naturally, this is just my opinion and I could be wrong, but
that is just the feeling that I got. And if this is the case, it actually could mark a
turning point to the program. But, instead of worrying about that, I am sure the
whole team is focused on Marshall so let's move on to what your stats earned you
in donations for ol' Ohio this outing.
To the Offense, perhaps the biggest surprise in your stats in this game is that the
O-line pitched a shut-out in allowing sacks this game. Naturally, this could have
been due to a quicker release of the ball for this game, but nonetheless
congratulations on the accomplishment. Had a really rough outing running and
passing the ball and a much more difficult time hanging on to the ball. This is an
old lesson from two seasons ago that should not be allowed to resurface of not
allowing the team to beat itself. Naturally, this was a very tough D you went
against, but taking good care of the football can go a long way in helping you to
win football games and in this season getting us to that bowl game that you want
to win this time around. Special thanks go out to Boo for coming in and
preventing the shut out with a nice pass to McCrae this game and for your next
game against Marshall how about trying to accomplish on of these two goals
sponsored in the Challenge? A game without turnovers is worth $8 in donations
and for every 100 yard rusher the team has will earn Ohio athletics $20. So good
luck against the Thundering Herd! For your efforts, the donors award you with

To the Defense, I can't speak for all the other donors here, but one thing I liked
about your performance this game is you never gave up. Your hard nose play
was really inspiring despite how difficult it was to defense against Ohio State's
offense. 95 tackles on the outing is good enough for a season best and your 3
sacks on the day were also a season best so far. Naturally, the number of tackles
were due in no small part to how long you were out there on the field, but you
seemingly never tired out there as buckeye after buckeye came out with an injury.
Keep up this intensity against the Herd! Also good to see the two turnovers one
of which prevented a touchdown. Marshall's QB has thrown a lot of picks so far
from what I hear so zero in on the Marshall passing game and add to that
turnover total.
In two yet-to-be earned categories to keep in mind, a shut out in any game is
worth $20 in donations and if a D-lineman runs a TD in for a score, that is worth $24.
So without further ado, here are the donations we reward you with for this game.
Also, in the first two weeks, I was accidentally only counting the number of TFLs.
That would have been fine for last year's 'Challenge, but this year we are counting
the number of TFL yards so I have made the necessary corrections.

To Special Teams, first of all a big congrats go out to Hershey for an excellent
game punting the football. The net punt yards in this game were a season best.
We did well returning the football narrowly missing getting a kick return TD if it
wasn't for the one penalty. Remember TD returns are also worth a lot in
donations-- for kick offs it is $12 and for punts it is $30. So to Brazill if you are
listening out there, so more motivation to get back into your old ways from last
season. Also, fumble returns for touchdowns are also worth $12 so plenty of
donations to be earned to help out OU. For your efforts this game, we the donors
award you with the following donations.
Oh and one quick note here... made a mistake by not putting in the total unit

should be accurate now.
