What’s Going To Happen
Lost in the narrative of Ohio State struggling on defense and being relatively down compared to the last few years is one way key element …
The offense is TOTALLY working. Ohio State is second in the nation in total O averaging way over 500 yards per game.
Yeah, Stroud missed some receivers here and there in the first few games, and he wasn’t razor-sharp for stretches against Oregon, and the offensive line isn’t consistent and the team is steady pumping out tons and tons of yards.
Before you blow that off in any way, ask Clemson what it’s like to reload the offense. Check with Oklahoma to see how that thing is working. With that said, be very, very careful here.
Rutgers doesn’t have enough in the bag to win unless there’s a total Buckeye meltdown. There have to be at least four Scarlet Knight takeaways, the red zone D has to be air tight, and everything has to go right when it comes to ball control.
That’s all not going to happen, but a 21-point Ohio State second half explosion will to finally be able to breathe easier.
Ohio State vs Rutgers Prediction, Line
Ohio State 34, Rutgers 17
I think Day and the Offense knows now they can’t throw away possessions. Need to be ready at the KO to go.
