Good read.

Definitely knew it was more than "it's Akron" that cause us to look so good on Defense. They finally figured out the need to change looks and disguise coverages. We already knew we had the better Jimmy's and Joes but the X's and O's were failing us. Get the X's and O's right and the Jimmy's and Joe's win championships.

5. After generating little pass rush through the first three weeks (4 sacks), the Buckeye defense was officially credited with 10 sacks against Akron (although to be fair, some of the so-called sacks seemed to come on designed QB runs). All American Haskell Garrett accounted for 3 of those sacks (all legit), and true freshman Tyleik Williams added another pair (both also legit). Five other Buckeye DL got into the sack action - Zach Harrison; Jerron Cage; Antwuan Jackson; Jack Sawyer (first career); and Ty Hamilton (first career). In his first game action, true freshman Mike Hall had a tackle but also a pair of 15-yard penalties (hands to face; unsportsmanlike).

UPDATE: In the initial stats sheet for the Akron game, Zach Harrison was credited with one sack for zero yards lost. I thought that looked strange at the time, and now Ohio State has eliminated Harrison's sack and credited him with a regular tackle. So give the team 9 sacks for the Akron game, not 10 as originally reported.

What happened to the Harrison talked about constantly from March to 9/1. LJ mentioned him first every time he spoke to the media?
