Game Thread Ohio State @ That TeaX Up North - 11/30/19, Noon (FOX)


Holy shit this is great. Incredibly accurate and I was spitting my beer out for about half of it laughing. Jokes aside, the guy gets it. I tried explaining this to a friend at work who thinks I am nuts for saying Harbaugh should be fired (although I welcome him to stay). I am just sending him this clip because it explains it much better than I ever could.

FOOTBALL: FIVE TAKEAWAYS FROM OHIO STATE’S 56-27 WIN AGAINST MICHIGAN

edit-8224-530x353.jpg


No. 1 Ohio State put a beating on No. 13 Michigan in the 116th Game, extending the Buckeyes’ streak to eight straight wins against the Wolverines, and 15 of the past 16. Ohio State head coach Ryan Day got his first win as a head coach in the rivalry, and Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh’s losing streak extended to five against the Buckeyes, who keep their undefeated season rolling into the Big Ten Championship Game against No. 10 Wisconsin Saturday. Here are The Lantern’s five takeaways from The Game:

Dobbins delivers

edit-7400-530x353.jpg


Junior running back J.K. Dobbins had one of the worst performances of his career against Michigan in 2018, with 13 touches for 47 yards.

Dobbins had nearly six times as many in a career-best game Saturday, setting personal bests with 211 rushing yards, 260 total, and four touchdowns.

“I know he was sick to his stomach about the fumble [against Penn State], and he wore that on his sleeve all week,” Day said. “He just had a look in his eye today. He was not gonna be denied.”

All 79 yards from scrimmage on Ohio State’s opening drive were chewed up by Dobbins, who converted a third-and-14 on a 28-yard catch-and-run to set up his first score a play later.

His pace never let up, as Dobbins found the end zone again on runs of five and six yards in the first half, when he racked up 103 yards on the ground.

Not yet satisfied with an already dominant performance, Dobbins opened the second half with back-to-back chunk gashes of 41 and 21 yards on a run and catch, and the resulting touchdown by redshirt senior wide receiver K.J. Hill put the Buckeyes up with a commanding 35-16 lead.

Dobbins galloped 33 yards to paydirt in the final quarter to put the nail in the Michigan coffin for the eighth straight game, and the La Grange, Texas, native finished in second place behind only Archie Griffin with 4,113 all-time Ohio State rushing yards.

SKULL SESSION: OHIO STATE'S THREE HEISMAN CANDIDATES, JIM HARBAUGH IS GOOD BUT NOT GOOD ENOUGH, AND URBAN MEYER'S BIG TEN TITLE ADVICE

ODDLY SATISFYING.
There's something oddly enjoyable about watching The Incomparable in the Big House to a soundtrack of boos.



It's understandable that they'd be pissy when they lose the game and the halftime performance.

CHARTING A DISEMBOWELMENT. If you'd like to see what Ohio State's latest murder looks like as an advanced box score, Bill Connelly has you covered once again.

The craziest thing about this chart is that it reveals Michigan didn't play nearly as bad as you'd expect of a team that lost by 29. Ohio State just played damn near perfect.



You know that whole "good, but not good enough" thing we just talked about with Harbaugh's teams? This is basically just that in chart form. And you can rinse and repeat it next year.

And the year after that. And the year after that.
