IMO, the kid is tossing his Heisman hopes out the window in this game. Dropped pass in first half that would have been a td, serious attitude after he didn't get the ball thrown to him later in the same half, careless ball handling almost cost him a td, arguing with official afterwards, careless ball handling does cost him a td...

No doubt he is talented and a heck of a player, but he's coming across as a showboating arrogant crybaby in this game. OSU better win this game...

11 receptions, 121 yards, and a TD. I'll take him. I haven't seen anything wrong with how he's playing except for his sloppy ball handling that would have gotten him a second TD.

I don't think he's too concerned with the Heisman. He's more interested in getting in to the top 10 of the NFL draft.

The announcers criticized him for some reason here, it was clearly what the coaches wanted him to do:

That was certainly laziness on his part. I think it's a bit over the top, however, to excoriate the kid for the mistake. Sean Mcdonough went crazy. Dare I say, Darius Reynolds' actions against UCONN on his 1st TD were much more "showboat-like" than what Blackmon did.

I agree. That was carelessness, not showboating.

yeah they were really clicking in the 2nd half. Not sure how Blackmon could be that wide open.

3 guys had over 10 catches for OSU, Weeden had 60 attempts and on INT's. It seemed like everyone was open, its impressive to watch those guys when they are on.
