I really enjoy doing these weekly articles and it’s a pleasure to introduce you to my family and their opinions of last weeks game! My beautiful wife Jackie @jlhBUCKS of 26 years, our youngest child and son @Phil__413, our middle child @kristianahunt and my brother Casey Google Plus. Our oldest child is a WVU graduate and fan so I didn’t ask of her opinion! Give them a follow on the twitter thing and please congratulate them on awesome answers.
(L-R) Kristiana, Philip, Jackie and Myself at Cherry Grove, North Myrtle this past summer. We have some pretty good O-H-I-O’s over the years.
What is it about this defense that makes them appear better than last years?
Jackie- Its was only the second game of the season so it’s too early to tell. Turnovers have been amazing though. Hooker stands out right now as a big threat to opposing offenses. Defense came alive in the second quarter and just played phenomenal. Other defensive players making key plays so I am excited to see what they do against tougher opponents.
Philip- Turnovers. I don’t think the defense is better yet, but they’ve had so many turnover in just two games that they appear to be more dynamic.
Kristiana- It is a little early to say they are better, but a noticeable difference in the last two games has been turnovers. We also haven’t let any offense score a touchdown yet. Stopping Tulsa on 4th down at the 1-yard line was impressive.
Casey- it’s too early for me to tell but I think with their defensive coordinator anything is possible and Nick Bosa is really gonna be a valuable asset.
Why do you think the offense took so long to get rolling and what was the difference when they did?
Jackie- I’m not sure if they came out and expected to breeze through like last week and weren’t prepared for what Tulsa brought. Teams always give Ohio State their best game and who can blame them. Could be looking ahead to next week but you have to take care of this week before you worry about next week. Need to start each game strong like they started playing close to end of second quarter and the second half. Couple of times, JT seemed unsure on throwing. When he’s in that situation he needs to run it.
Philip- Usually when I criticize the offense it’s because they don’t run the ball and it is no different now. Keep pounding the defense with Weber and Samuel, draw the defense in and then throw it over the top. I think the difference is that after two pick sixes and a long halftime, Tulsa was done.

Kristiana- I don’t think JT was making smart reads. He forced a lot of passes. I also think Tulsa was ready for our run game and it took us awhile to find the open pockets. We lacked enthusiasm but Hookers pick-6 and the storm kind of woke us up.
Casey- I think JT is nervous about getting hurt or saving himself for tougher teams. He stepped it up more after the half but I believe it will get better as he has time with his new offense.
Even though they’re only played two games, the defense has only given up two field goals, what’s your favorite unit of the defense and why?
Jackie- Defense seems to have a fire about them. In the beginning of the game, Evans completed too many passes and at one point their offense was on the field more than us and they had more first downs. Towards the end of the second quarter when defense came alive they weren’t letting anything get past them. If they play like that all the time every minute of every game they are going to be a nightmare for opponents.
Philip- Defensive backs. They’re young and ruthless.
Kristiana- Defensive backs for sure. They make things happen. They have bailed us out when we couldn’t stop the run game on multiple drives. They are smart and they act on their instincts quickly.
Casey- Hooker and Lattimore are highly underused on the offense side of the field and I believe they are versatile and capable of running some offense in this system! They are very talented.
Bonus-What do the Buckeyes have to do to win in Norman this week and what is your prediction?
Jackie- Smart play calling, no penalties, JT needs to be confident and sure every time, use Weber and Samuel, deliver some amazing passes, JT needs to run when needed, defense play strong hard and fast. I’d also like to see some sacks
Philip- Our defensive line has to get to the quarterback, Barrett has to be precise and decisive, and the play calling has to be smart. I don’t like predicting games so I’m not going to make a prediction. I think it’ll be a good game.
Kristiana- I really think it’s going to come down to play calling. When we throw, Barrett has to be able to read the field like he did against Bowling Green. Our defense also needs to stop the run game. I’ll predict 31-21, Buckeyes win.
Casey- 56 to 10 Buckeyes win !!! Keep feeding the ball to Weber jr. And more runs into the endzone by jt. Barret and run Hooker on the offense for a game. More run plays not up the middle split the defense kick it out more often an also see what brewer has to offer when you need a tempo change
