Yikes.

I'm just not so sure this Ohio State team is tough enough to handle Iowa at Iowa.

If our defense starts playing like it can, we'll be fine. Unfortunately, they've shown that they need a big turnover to ignite them. Hopefully we get one of those soon.

Iowa's punting, good defense there.

Why burn a timeout when you could set up a 4th down play just to come back and take the wimpy FG?? This team's had problems in the red zone for the past few years and 3 points is NOT what you get there for.

They presumably didn't call the timeout to set up the play. The called a timeout because they couldn't decide what to do in time. Also, with the problems in the red zone you pointed to, that makes going for it on 4th an even bigger risk.

In other news... Looks like the Buckeye defense is just fine when they're not playing 11 on 12.
