Game Thread Indiana at tOSU, Sat. Nov. 23, 12pm EST, FOX

I think it’s probably true that the second half in Bloomington on Saturday was revealing. The problem is, I can’t say that I have a high level of confidence in that statement.

I would love to believe that Ohio State’s second half against Nebraska was just an aberration. But what would I say to an Indiana fan who said that it was revealing? I might bring up better performances against better defenses, but Indiana could make the same argument for their performance against the cheaters being an aberration. They haven’t played great teams, but Nebraska is ranked 34 places higher than the skunk bears in scoring defense nationally and 6 spaces higher in the B1G, and the Hoosiers hung a 50-burger on them.

Which game was the aberration? Did either game show who Indiana really is? If someone has a reason to be sure, please share. My usual optimism seems to have deserted me; I’d love to get it back.

Random pictures of the day

Dubs, believe that anything in the LA basin has two commas in it's value. Daughter wants to move back to LA (went to school at BIOLA), but pointed out that she cannot afford to rent there, much less buy. She's in a townhouse in C'bus that we own, and has gone up in value about $125k since she's been there, three years. Anyway, I especially like the countryside house. Is that a putting green off to the left?

WNBA

Not to take anything away from the ones that went before, the Lieberman's, the Cheryl's, etc. although it seems like there's a big bulge of talent in last year's class, considerably more than one or two superstars per year. Brink was doing great, CC, and even Jacy earned starting spots as the season wore on. More than I've mentioned as well, just not as prominent. Butts in the seats are wonderful, but the TV revenues are certainly key. Totally agree. The streaming services and ancillary channels (B10+ comes to mind), are stepping in to fill the tv void. Guess some major station or other will have to take a measured plunge on televising WNBA to make them solid. Heck, I'd probably pay a bit more for a WNBA channel.

Offensive Linemen​

Seth McLaughlin: 52
Tegra Tshabola: 52
Josh Fryar: 52
Donovan Jackson: 50
Carson Hinzman: 50
George Fitzpatrick: 16
Luke Montgomery: 14
Ian Moore: 14
Joshua Padilla: 14
Austin Siereveld: 13
Toby Wilson: 3

Ohio State used the same starting lineup on the offensive line as it did against Penn State with Jackson starting at left tackle and Hinzman starting at left guard. Hinzman left the game for Ohio State’s final two plays of the first half after suffering an apparent knee injury and was replaced by Siereveld, but Hinzman returned for the start of the second half. Jackson came out of the game at the start of the fourth quarter – two plays before the rest of Ohio State’s starters – and was replaced by Fitzpatrick at left tackle after he was slow to get up on Ohio State’s second-to-last play of the third quarter.

Fitzpatrick remained in the game for the entire fourth quarter with the second-team offensive line, which also consisted of Montgomery at left guard, Padilla at center, Siereveld at right guard and Moore at right tackle. Wilson, a self-described glue guy, saw his first offensive snaps of the year when he replaced Siereveld at RG for the game’s final series.
