with the Coach, the three quarterbacks that have been sharing the duties during the first three games, which will continue at Ames on Saturday with a tussle with Iowa State.\u00a0 Coach Gundy want everyone to believe that the play of the three quarterbacks has been rather good, as Gundy does not want to say that the quarterback play is lacking.\u00a0 Fact is, Gundy has mentioned that OSU does NOT have major issues with the team overall, despite an apology to the fan base after Saturday\u2019s loss, at home, to South Alabama,

18.72px;\">microcosm<\/span> of the offense.\u00a0 \u00a0OSU, today, is a bad offensive team with rather ineffective players, a terrible offensive scheme with a lack of a running game, and coaching that has been lackluster this season so far.\u00a0 As for the quarterbacks, I have not been impressed to say the least.\u00a0 The pistol\u2019s are NOT firing in
