Franklin listed to Sail too much pregame.

Franklin was by no means great last night, but the drops by his WRs climbed into the high teens. I know there are drops every game, but last night was laughable. Franklin can only hit his guys in the hands to many times.

Coaching staffs, unlike fans and commentators, look at things like that. They knew Fraknlin was not nearly as bad last night as his numbers showed.

Even the two fumbles were as much on the RBs as him. The botched hand off hit Josey in the middle of the chest at first, that's plenty deep enough. The fumbled pitch was a weird combination of things. First it was the right read, based off the read man. Second, it hit the RB in the hands. Third, the WR got blown up and pushed into the RB. Of course the QB needs to see that and keep the ball safe, but it was not completely his fault.

Don't discount OSU defense, it was good; but that was one of the worst games I've seen Franklin have. He almost gave the game to them. You just knew Pinkel was going to stick with his senior. Even when Mauk came in I knew Pinkel was just trying to shake Franklin up.
Don't have to worry about it next season. The Mauk Printz show should be very entertaining.
