One of my favorite families of all time are all Buckeye fans(not the reason) and have graciously agreed to be this weeks guests for Fans Interact. The father and I go quite a ways back through mutual friends and then officiating together for some time. I knew Gary and Teresa as a youth in Belpre, Ohio and they are the family to be friends with.
I got to know the sons, Ian and Eric through officiating too as they came up through high school and they were always respectful and fun to be around. They know their Buckeye football so let’s see what their thoughts are on last weeks game!

What are your thoughts around Ohio State keeping the ball in JT Barrett’s hands so much and why do you think that’s what happened?
Gary – I do not like so many carries for JT . Play calling and JT decision to keep the ball.
Teresa – Way to many carries, coaches are going to get him hurt. Play calling
Ian – It makes me nervous for JT to have so many carries, we’re going to need him as healthy as possible coming down the stretch. I think it’s happening because the coaches feel so comfortable with the ball in his hands. They trust in him and his abilities 100%, so when the going gets tough, they fall back to what they are most comfortable with.
Eric – I don’t like JT getting a lot of carries because I obviously worry about injuries. I think it happens, especially in closer games, because the offensive coaching staff feels comfortable with the ball in his hands. With all the youth on offense they are confident that JT will make the right decision.
The Silver Bullets were thought to have had an “average” day but still didn’t allow a rushing touchdown and had another pick six that was called back. Tell us why you think it was an above average day or don’t.
Gary – Love the fact the silver bullets have not gave up a rushing touchdown, but would like to see more pressure on the QB.
Teresa – Above average, The Silver Bullets are the best damn defense in the land.
Ian – I’d say it was an above average day. We held Indiana to their lowest scoring total of the year and Devine Redding to 3.5 yards/carry. There’s always room for improvement but the defense was solid last week.
Eric – I think the Silver Bullets had an above average day. Had a pick six called back & forced 2 turnovers against a team in Indiana that I think played extremely conservative. I was content with the the way the defense played, especially against the run. It just wasn’t as explosive game as we’ve been seeing this year but I also think it is because Indiana was trying to control the clock & play field position.
Offensive play calling seems to be the whopping post by the fans right now. Tell us why you agree or disagree with that.
Gary – I agree, we need to open it more, No screen, quick slants or curl routes.
Teresa – I agree, no long passes. Not sure what they are waiting on.
Ian – I agree when it comes to last week. I thought the play calling was very good up until the Indiana game. It comes back to their comfort-ability with the ball in JT’s hands when things get a little tighter. I’d like to see Curtis Samuel with the ball in his hands as much as possible this week, he has too much speed/quickness for Wisconsin to contain him all night.
Eric – I think the play calling has been conservative against the teams OSU is supposed to blow out, so every team OSU has faced this year besides Oklahoma. I don’t completely agree that the play calling has been bad. I just think OSU doesn’t show much against teams like BG & Tulsa. Not sure what the problem was last week but I’m confident the coaches will have a good offensive game-plan this week. Have been doing a good job of getting the ball to Curtis Samuel, with the exception of last week. I think he touches it a lot more this week.
Bonus) – With the pulse of THE Rivalry right now and the belief that TTUN is back, what are your thoughts on how they are playing right now?
Gary – TTUN still SUCKS!!!
Teresa – No comment.
Ian – They’ve had one tough game on their schedule that ended in a 14-7 win at home. Speight is still very unproven by my judgement. They’re much better than they were under Hoke, but that isn’t saying much.
Eric – it’s 12:45pm on Wednesday October, 12 & Michigan still sucks!
But seriously, Michigan is an improved football team but I think they’re a little over-hyped, but my opinion may be a little biased.
Bonus 2) – What is your prediction for this weeks trip to Madison?
Gary – 34 – 17 OSU GO BUCKS!!!
Teresa – 34 – 10 OSU O-H
Ian – 27-17, Buckeyes win
Eric – 21-13 Buckeyes
