A 96-Second Masterpiece: Inside Ohio State’s Masterful Two-Minute Drill Against Iowa
Ohio State's final drive of the first half in Iowa City was an ideal two-minute drill that put the game away for the Buckeyes just 30 minutes in.
With Ohio State up 10-6 and 1:48 left in the second quarter, the Buckeyes began their final first-half drive at Iowa's 16-yard line. Yet Ohio State didn't panic and seemed to know the result before it even started.
After Ryan Day, Arthur Smith, and Ohio State players praised Julian Sayin for his growth off the field throughout the offseason, he showed his ability as a second-year starter and his leadership as a first-year captain throughout the drive.
Ohio State had two timeouts in its pocket, but Day only needed to call one, showcasing the precision, timeliness and efficiency of the nine-play, 84-yard touchdown drive that allowed Julian Sayin to display his leadership and progression with so much command of the offense, which in turn allowed the rest of the offense to flourish.
The drive began with a 12-yard run by Bo Jackson, as he broke two tackles on one of his best runs of the game. Then, Sayin connected with a wide-open Devin McCuin for a 20-yard completion. Next, a quick 6-yard pass to Brandon Inniss near the sideline allowed Inniss to get out of bounds, stop the clock and Ohio State to huddle for the first time in the drive.
After Jackson ran for a 5-yard first down, Sayin scrambled for 7 yards. Jackson then followed with a 16-yard run of his own, another one that he broke multiple tackles on. But it was that two-play sequence — and what happened between the plays — that showcased the jump and progression Sayin has made in his second season leading Ohio State's offense.
With a newfound ability to run the ball, and with no one open downfield, Sayin took off for that 7-yard scramble. Then, with the no-huddle offense, he stayed patient, took his time, and audibled out of a play and into a run. That led to a 16-yard run by Jackson to give the Buckeyes the ball at the 18-yard line with 34 seconds and two timeouts left.

There was a decent amount of chatter of Boyd consistently performing well in fall camp, sounds like there was some truth to that.
In conjunction with Inniss being a limited player, I don’t think I’m personally surprised. If Boyd continues to block well and take advantage of his targets he might overtake the majority.
I like that the freshmen are keeping upperclassmen on edge. McCuin might have to fight Henry off the entire season if he wants to keep his run (he had a really nice game last week and will need to be ready against IU).
I like it.
