A breakdown of Ohio State’s win over the Zips and a look ahead to the Broncos.
Week 1 is in the books, and Ohio State eventually posted the blowout win over the Akron Zips that most people predicted... it just took a bit to get there. The offensive line, in particular, struggled at times — especially in the first quarter. We do our best not to overreact to Saturday’s occasionally problematic dispatching of the Zips and break down Ohio State’s victory.
There were success stories (kick and punt returns, Jeremiah Smith, Will Howard, the defense not only getting takeaways but also turning them into points, etc.), and plenty of issues that the coaching staff can work on to improve the team as the season progresses. We also looked back at our picks to click and score predictions to see how well (or unwell) we envisioned the game.
After our game recap segment, we took a trip throughout the Big Ten to see how the rest of the conference fared on opening weekend. The only exception was the USC game, which we could not discuss because we recorded Sunday afternoon. We did not see the Trojans pulling off the upset against LSU, but we’re not mad about it.
Finally, we looked ahead to Saturday’s meeting with Western Michigan. The Broncos were sitting in a good position in the fourth quarter at Wisconsin when an unlucky bounce on a Badger punt turned things around in Madison. Ohio State will need to be better against Western Michigan to avoid the Broncos hanging around like they did in Madison.
