  • On how Tegra Tshabola and Austin Siereveld performed at guard. "I thought they both did a really good job for their first extensive playing time there. ... It was a lot of guys' first time stepping on the field in the Horseshoe. ... I think once those guys got settled, we started to get into a pretty good rhythm."

This kid might have been our MVP yesterday. Absolutely was smothering defenders and then getting to the next level. If you're an interior OL and catch the eye of fans in a good way, you did a great job.

Bump this thread up for Tegra, I mean it when I say I think he had to have a grade about as high as possible. I see why he won the job, he doesn't just get on a defender but just makes them sorry they exist. Gotta give the big man some love. He was blocking some DL up into the popcorn vendor, pretty impressive work.

Tegra has done a solid job at RG this year. He and Sevierveld (sp?) will be standouts on next years OL.

It definitely makes you feel better about the succession plan and OL going forward right? It was something we were all concerned with and seeing guys like Tegra and Austin step up really instills some faith in you. Really looking forward to Tegra matching up against Oregon's defense, which is darn good up front.

  • On Tegra Tshabola and his journey coming from the Democratic Republic of the Congo: "Very proud family that Tegra comes from and very proud of their heritage and their culture. ... I think that plays into his success. He understands what he wants to do with the game of football. ... Each year his football IQ is getting better and better, understanding the game. ... He's a guy who shows up every day ready to work ... his best football is still ahead of him."
  • On whether he's considering starting Joshua Padilla over Tshabola: "We're looking at everything, we're looking at the stats. ... Figure out who and what gives us the best chance to win. All things we're evaluating."

Stock Down​

Tegra Tshabola​

Unfortunately, major lapses continue to plague Ohio State’s second-year starter at right guard. A reminder that criticisms like this of a player are never a personal attack, but this is a results-based business. Watching, rewatching, there was a reason Joshua Padilla played 26 snaps, swapping in for Tshabola for multiple series as opposed to the one he usually plays.

Tshabola has his solid moments. But, thus far this year, there have been too many moments where he’s caught off-balance, like on this play where he leans too far forward on a pass block and gets beat handily at the line, forcing Sayin to scramble.

Tegra Tshabola whiffs on a pass block

I’m not one to put much stock into PFF’s grades (their advanced stats are incredibly helpful, however), but Tshabola was Ohio State’s lowest-graded run and pass blocker against the Badgers at 46.3 and 45.1. He allowed two pressures.
