well to be fair, he got worked by the TE and let that play happen so he should have chased it down
He's young. TE's won't be winning many individual contest with him once he hits his stride

He just needs another offseason with Marotti to bring up his size and strength to match his speed. The rest of the country has no idea that this run of top 3 picks at DE isn't over after Chase.

First off, thanks for doing these every week. What a great resource! That being said…
The touchdown at the end of the first half was skipped coming back from a timeout commercial break.

FRESHMAN TRACKER: ZACH HARRISON, DAWAND JONES AND GARRETT WILSON TRY TO SHINE IN THE RAIN
https://www.elevenwarriors.com/ohio-state-football/2019/10/108222/freshman-tracker-wisconsin
Re: Harrison was one of four defensive ends that played for the Buckeyes on Saturday. His 21 snaps trailed only Chase Young (42) and Tyreke Smith (28). When Harrison was on the field he was paired with Young for 17 plays and Javontae Jean-Baptiste for four snaps.

Ten Things We Learned From Ohio State’s 38-7 Win Over Wisconsin
1. It’s time to make Garrett Wilson the full-time punt returner.
Demario McCall was back for the first three or four punt returns for the Buckeyes, but eventually freshman Garrett Wilson took over and he needs to stay tooken over. No, that’s not great English. In fact, it may not even actually be English. But the point remains — Garrett Wilson is good at returning punts and looks completely safe and comfortable doing it. He now has five punt returns for 80 yards, which is 16 yards per return — and more than double the averages of McCall and KJ Hill.
2. Ryan Day trusts Chris Chugunov.
I mentioned this on the Instant Reaction podcast Saturday, but I loved the play call when Justin Fields left the field of play. Everyone was expecting Chris Chugunov to simply hand the ball off, but instead they called a screen pass. That screen got blown up and Chugunov threw the ball away in a very smart way. Calling this play at this time tells me that Ryan Day not only trusts Chugunov to play, but also trusts him to make the right decisions, which he did on his early opportunity against the Badgers.
3. Chris Olave is letting his personality show.
Sophomore receiver Chris Olave had a career day against Wisconsin, catching seven passes for 93 yards and two scores. It’s his third game — and second in a row — with two touchdown catches this season. That’s all old hat, though. What is a bit new for the relatively quiet receiver is that we are seeing Olave’s personality come out on the field. Whether it’s signaling a first down, pointing into the crowd in the end zone, or a simple shoulder shimmy, Chris Olave’s confidence is coming through in his posture — and posturing. In his last two games — against two of the Big Ten’s best defenses — he has 12 catches for 153 yards and four touchdowns. A shoulder shimmy or three is perfectly acceptable.
4. Ryan Day has this team locked in.
Ohio State knows what it’s like to have to regroup after a loss and they know exactly the stakes that go into that next game. Which means they also knew exactly what to expect from Wisconsin as they entered Ohio Stadium. They were expecting the Badgers’ best. The little errors would have surely been fixed and any glimpses of weaknesses from the Illinois loss would have been addressed days in advance. And you know what, they probably were. But it didn’t matter because the Buckeyes were ready for it. Just like they’re ready for every single week and every single test. The pain of the previous two seasons is an incredible motivator — and so are Ryan Day and his coaching staff.
5. Chase Young is underrated.
Look, all I’m saying is if you want to call Chase Young the best player in college football or rank him No. 1 among all players, that’s great. But we need a number higher than ‘1’ because it doesn’t really do him justice. We need to invent a new number that we put before ‘1’ only when it is warranted. And yeah, “Chase Young is the best player in America” is a fine sentiment, but it still falls short because it foolishly and inadequately compares him to humans.
6. Justin Hilliard is not out of place on this defense.
As Ohio State’s defense was taking the field for the first time, I saw No. 47 running onto the field and said to nobody in particular, “Whoa, Justin Hilliard is out there.” The Buckeyes went with a 4-4-3 alignment at the beginning of the game, starting four linebackers against the Wisconsin rushing attack. With a defense that routinely plays four linebackers, it was interesting to see them incorporate a fifth in Hilliard. The Buckeyes didn’t go with the 4-4-3 all game long, so Hilliard only finished with one tackle, but it was a huge stop as he dragged down running back Jonathan Taylor for a loss of six on second-and-10. Chase Young would then sack Badger quarterback Jack Coan on the next play, forcing a Wisconsin punt. Hilliard has been a bit of a forgotten man on this defense, but on Saturday he showed that you better keep his name in mind for the second half of the season. And it’s clear that the Buckeye coaches will be doing just that.

The Grumpy Old Buckeye: Ohio State vs. Wisconsin
The Buckeyes and Badgers met in what would have been a much bigger game if not for the Badgers stubbing their toes in Champaign last weekend. Wisconsin still presented the most difficult test to date for the Buckeyes and all Ohio State did was win by 31 points on a day with weather that made passing difficult. It’s been a difficult season to be grumpy — which is fine, honestly — but I’ll give it a shot anyway after a 38-7 win over Wisconsin.
First Clap Snap
Josh Myers appeared to snap the ball one clap early on Ohio State’s second offensive play. The rest of the offensive linemen stayed in their stances and Myers took off, leaving a gaping hole for the defense to run through and hit Justin Fields in the backfield. It looked like a sack, and appeared to get scored that way, but the way the center took off forward after snapping the ball makes me think it wasn’t a pass play and perhaps was a quarterback draw. That put the Buckeyes behind the chains and led to an early three-and-out.
Fumbled Snap
Ohio State had a key third down on the second offensive drive and Fields couldn’t handle the wet ball as he looked to get started on a designed run and may have taken his eye off a slightly high snap from Myers. Fields was fortunate to grab the ball and at least get back to the line of scrimmage but it was a wasted opportunity to get into plus territory in the first quarter and Drue Chrisman only sent the ensuing punt to the 19-yard line instead of his customary inside-the-10 bomb.
Oh, Chase
Ohio State punted from deep in its own territory and a 50-yard punt by Chrisman gave Wisconsin the ball at its own 25. But Chase Young jumped offside and gave the Badgers a free five yards. Since Wisconsin was having difficulty getting five yards, it was irritating to give them some freebies. But ultimately I can forgive my large, grown son Chase because of other plays that you may have noticed throughout the game.
Going Low
Wisconsin converted a third down on a pass play to Quintez Cephus in the second quarter after picking up a Damon Arnette blitz. But it was an extremely low block by Garrett Groshek and Arnette went airborne in part to avoid the low blow. His trajectory was a bit off as a result and he missed what would have been a spectacular sack on Jack Coan. Instead, it was a big chunk play for Wisconsin. Fullbacks should be able to stand up and block Arnette rather than resorting to attacking the knee. Later in the first half, Shaun Wade faced the same type of low hit out on the edge from a bigger blocker. Let’s clean that up, Wisconsin, before someone gets hurt or even loses a career.
Drops, Drops, Drops
Chris Olave and K.J. Hill had back-to-back dropped passes in the second quarter and then J.K. Dobbins made a great catch on third-and-long. The difference was that Dobbins had no gloves on and both receivers did. I get that players have their superstitions and things that make them more comfortable, but those three consecutive plays showed that the Buckeye receivers should have had their gloves off in the rain.
Wasted Play
Fields’ helmet popped off at the end of a failed quarterback sweep look that was meant to be a pass, which ended in a sack. Rather than take a timeout to make Fields eligible to return without sitting out for a play, the Buckeyes sent Chris Chuganov out there cold. So…handoff, right? Nope. Chugz threw incomplete on a wasted play that didn’t need to be wasted.
