Kinda picky, huh? I didn’t say we were sure then, because he could have thrown a touchdown instead of 2 interceptions, OSU might have fumbled or thrown an interception. All “might have been”, but didn’t happen then.
NOW we are sure because it’s history.
We scored on a field goal in the second half, that’s it. I’m not saying he should have been replaced in the last 5 minutes, as Ketch has stated on this thread. And I haven’t ever said Ewers shouldn’t have come back in the game, either. Give the kid a different view of what’s happening on the field. Catch his breath, calm doan, whatever. If Card doesn’t produce, run Ewers back out there again with a fresh mindset.
But damn it, we should expect our coaches to try to WIN, and not be afraid to sit the starter if things aren’t going well.
There have been many examples of this happening in the past, by many different coaches. And sometimes the change worked, and the team won because of the change.
