Big 12 defenses don't play press man coverage because their defensive lines typically aren't good enough to get pressure with just 4.
That takes away most of the dink and dunk passing, now your QB has to take longer for routes to develop, take a look at how long JJ had to throw, or how much McCarron moved around. Now factor in Weeden not being mobile and see how long he survives.
Bama was able to throw the ball because they keep LSU out of the Nickel and Dime packages where they get dangerous when you're trying to throw the ball. OSU simply wouldn't be able to run enough to do that.
LSU and Bama's defenses are just brutal when you become one dimensional.
I don't know if OSU would have 50 plays total in the game to work with.
