• 0:31
  Speaker 1: I just want to throw this out there for all
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: the Ohio State fans who maybe did not get an
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: opportunity to make this trip. There were plenty here, but
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: I know there are plenty more back in Ohio.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: This is a spot. Put this on your list.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know when Ohio State's back out here next,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: but put this on your list. You know this is
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: this is up there with Oregon and Nebraska and Penn
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: State and Michigan and I mean the other places that
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: are Yeah, you you should take a trip there because
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: This is a really a unique venue and just I
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: mean a really cool apptmosphere and worth worth the trip.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: It was pretty loud for a noon game.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: It sure was.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: I didn't even think about that, it sure was. It was.
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: But also Ohio State, Texas was loud for new game,
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah for sure. But yeah, because we we were talking
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: about how was this as loud as organ that was,
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: like I was that was a three thirty.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: Kick, yes, yeah, because that yeah, that was.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: State. Yeah, yeah, so this was.
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure, come come check this game out or
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: when Ohio State is back, and not just the game,
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: because there's all sorts of stuff around. Of course you
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: get the city. It would be interesting to see what
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: this is like for a four o'clock, four thirty local.
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: Well you'll never you should never have to be here
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: for a seven forty or eight o'clock kick local. But
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: even for just the twelve thirty kick, it didn't feel like, oh, sleepy.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Twelve thirty kick. This was people were ready to go.
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: The boats were rolling in early in the morning and
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: well into the game, and it was very very cool.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: It's certainly it's a bucket less place.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And if you want to see more about the stadium,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: about the salegating, about the outside of the stadium, the inside
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: of the stadium.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: We did a ton of behind the scenes stuff.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: You can find that all on our YouTube channel YouTube
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: dot com slash Buckeye Huddle. We did our very best
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: to capture as much of this as we can because
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: I know this is a place that virtually no one
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: has come. Ohio State hasn't been here since two thousand
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: and seven. So again, if you haven't put just put
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: it on your list. I don't know when they're back here,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: probably a couple of years, but put it on your list.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: Definitely worth the trip, all right.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: So it was twenty four to six Ohio State, and
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: this was it was.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: A weird game. I feel like we're talking about just yeah,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: this is a weird game. And the pattern of the
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: game was a little weird. We're talking about that a
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: lot at this point. And this was another weird one
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: where Ohio State had three possessions in the first half.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: That's I'm sure that has happened and I'm just not
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: thinking of it off the top of my head. But boy,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: I can't remember the last time Ohio State had three
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: possessions in a first half.
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: No and this feels like a projects to go and
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: find the last time they did because this and really, well,
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: let me just go look for the Army and the
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: Navy games and see if that air Force back in
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: ninety three or whatever, maybe.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Then the nineteen ninety Liberty Bowl is a real possibility.
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: So this was this game plan was played in two
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: hours and fifty five minutes. That's the shortest game since
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: like twenty two or twenty three for Ohio State when
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: thirty seven to nine over Minnesota, where probably Ohio State
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: and Minnesota are just like this is planned.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: Let's just get this game over with this one.
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: I I don't understand why it was so quick because
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: I guess there wasn't enough scoring. Basically, there are plenty
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: of timeouts, but you know, you're both teams just there's
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: no no reason to hurry. Nobody wants to give the
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: other guy more possessions, right, so you're just trying to
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: lit it and like win it in the fourth quarter.
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: Problem was Ohio State won it in the fourth quarter,
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: won it in the second half in Washington.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: Didn't have enough.
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: This feels like a game where more possessions in the
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: first half would have helped Washington like just or just
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: run some time. I'll do some things, just try to
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: get as many possessions.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: Well, Jedfish set out well, yeah, Jedfish said after.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: The game that their idea was slowly down because you know,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: I think my sense this week was basically, if this
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: game gets into the you know, if someone gets a
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: thirty or Washington is like cooked, no chance and no
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: one got to thirty. And that was sort of a
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: function I think partly of Washington's gameplay and being hey,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: limit possessions, keep you know, keep Ohio State's offense off
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: the field. Ultimately, when you when you're the underdog, you're
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: always incentivized to limit the number of possessions because if
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: you have Ohio State has a you know, you know,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Ohio State has a talent advantage on every individual play and.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: It's not enormous.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: This isn't Ohio State grambling, but they have talent advantages
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: in certain spots. So the more plays there are, the
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: more those advantages accumulate, and the more you see, you know,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: if this was a game where you had thirty extra snaps,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Jeremiah Smith is getting loose at some point, Kronel Tate
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: is getting loose at some point, and Washington, you know,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: maybe Joanah Coleman gets loose, or maybe demand Punk Williams
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: gets loose or Denzel Boston maybe, but Ohio State's guys
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: are better. So therefore Ohio State, you know, the advantage
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: shows up more for Ohio State.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: So you know it's the drives. Washington drives or Ohio
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: States drives.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: Nine places forty five yards, six places fifteen yards the
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: touchdown drives, but the.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: Four scoring drives in a row.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Ten plays seventy three yards touchdowns, fourteen plays seventy five
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: yards touchdown, eleven plays fifty nine yards field goal, eight
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: plays forty five yard forty four yards touchdown. But the
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: middle eight of this game. Ohio State was down three
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: to nothing when they got the ball with four thirty
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: nine left in the first half.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Three nothing Washington less than five minutes ago to a halftime.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Ohio State gets the ball.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: Ten plays seventy three yards, boom boom, very methodical down
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: the field, score a touchdown, steph Washington on their kind
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: of abbreviated possession right before halftime. And then when they
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: get the win, Ohiers, they got the ball back fourteen
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: plays seventy five yards.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: More than half of the third quarter was gone.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: So Washington went from hoay, were up by three with
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: five minutes left in the first the first half to
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: uh oh, we're down by eleven more than halfway through
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: the third quarter and now.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: Time is running out. That was that was.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: Such a crucial stretch for Yeah.
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: And then then you see Washington normally has three possessions
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: in the second.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: Half, right, yeah, then yeah, then then they're turning to.
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: Not have the ball, and it was this is what
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: happens when nobody's in a hurry. You're gonna shorten the
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: game like this. But this is as short as you
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: will ever see it from two normal human being teams
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: where you'res now like, we only run triple option, we
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: only run run to flex bomb. This is real offense,
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: like not real offense, normal offenses. And it's still like, yeah,
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: but we're gonna huddle, We're gonn mosy to the line.
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: We're gonna you know, here we go start clapping it
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: to five seconds on the play clock. And Okay, if
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: you're gonna do that, you need to execute very very well.
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: And that's one thing that Ohio State did much better
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: in the second half is possessions are.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: Gonna be limited. That means every play is that much
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: more important.
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: Twice is important because if you only have the ball
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: seven times, like Ohio State did, like you need to
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: make sure that you're making the most out of each
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: of those plays. And if you're not, then you're wasting
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: valuable time because you're not just wasting a drive, you're
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: wasting Well, that was five minutes that we could have
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: had bag that you don't have now. And really this
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: is not a catch up kind of game for Washington.
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: Once it got to a two score game, it's like, wow,
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: do you have two scores.
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: In you right?
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you're the hill. The climb gets a lot
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: steeper when you're not able to.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: Put the ball in the end zone.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: And it's you know, to you know, to Washington's credit,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: it's been very hard for anyone to put the ball
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: in the end zone. It's a high State defense this year,
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: four games in the calendar is about to turn to October.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: This team's given up two touchdowns, one against Texas in
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: the kind of closing minutes of that game. They went
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: fifty six minutes without giving up a touchdown of Texas
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: and then Ohio scores right out of the half on
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: kind of a weird broken play where you had someone
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: there and just couldn't get him to the ground. That's it,
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: end of list. You know, this is this is like
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: when you talk about, right, you know, the stat about
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Ryan Day losses, and it's like, I can, off the
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: top of my head remember every Ryan Day loss and
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: he's been the coach since twenty nineteen. I mean, this
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: is this is not someone who just took over the
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: job three weeks ago. You can remember all of it,
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: every touchdown in the Matt Patrasci has given up and we're
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: through a month of the season and you don't even.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: Have to think about it.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Just won't one right before the game and at the
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: end of the game against Texas and right after the
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: half against Ohio, and that's it.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: There was a lot that went into why this.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Defense was so successful against Washington on Saturday, but as always,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: it all starts up and starts upfront.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: The defensive line for iOS date was credible.
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: They controlled the game and even when Washington would start
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: to move the ball, they can only do that for
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: so long before the defensive line would win again hold
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: them to a field goal. Whatever it took, like there
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: would be good moments for Washington, but they were fleeting
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: and the defensive line, whether it's Kaden Curry, Kate McDonald,
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: Kenyana Jackson, whoever, or Rvel Reese and Sunny Styles cleaning
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: up as spies or just making sure that Jonah Coleman
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: didn't get loose out in the flats.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: This was a complete game.
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: But yes, it very much started up front and that
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: made everybody's job easier. Although you know, also we could
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: talk about the secondary, but the defensive line controlled the
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: game and they would I think they would have done
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: it with more plays as well, Like if I don't
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: see the defensive line getting tired from another driver too,
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: they were just going to continue to do this.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: Well, Yeah, the defensive defensive line is winning as often
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: as you know, as often as not.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: And this is sort of the same thing.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: The talent wins out the more you see it, the
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: more the talent wins out, the.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: More snaps Washington.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they might have scored more, but they also you
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: might you know, you might be throwing the ball up
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: in Caleb Down's interception, you know, you might you might
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: get hit at a time you're not expecting to get
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: hit and fumble the ball.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, Washington didn't turn the ball over.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: They had they had a fake field goal that ended
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: a drive, which is, you know, functionally a turnover, but
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: not it doesn't show up on the statute as a turnover.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: But yeah, the defensive.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Line, Caden McDonald, I mean Cat and Curry got a
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: lot of the flowers after the game, and rightfully so.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: Eleven tackles, three sacks, tied the school record with five
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: tackles for loss. That's that is a day and a
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: half for Caden Curry. But Kaden McDonald, he's been so
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: good this year. I mean he's he's not necessarily the
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: biggest name player, and it's hard to be the superstar
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: as the interior of the defensive line. I mean, you
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: can go through and goon Aaron Donald and don the
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: can sue Big Daddy Wilkinson a string of about eight
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: guys from Georgia. But you know it's other than that,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: you don't you can name a whole lot more edge
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: guys than defensive tackles.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: But Cad McDonald, that is a name that a lot
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: of Ohio State.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Fans should be saying pretty frequently, and with a lot
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: of excitement.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: In their voices.
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: Now that I think about it, I think he had
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: eight tackles against Texas, which was the most for a
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: nose tackle at Ohio State since twenty twelve or thirteen.
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: Wow, when Garrett Goebel did it.
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: And you know, yeah, and big Jonathan Hankins, who was
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: not necessarily a nose tackle at at the time, also
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: at eight. But Garrett Gobile eight tackles the most for
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: a defensive a nose tackle until Cad McDonald did this,
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: so this.
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: Is not new.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: Getting to the quarterback is always a new ish for
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: a nose tackle, especially one. He was as burly as
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: Cad McDonald. But those two guys, the Cadens, were outstanding.
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: I would call them not have nothing. I'd say that
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: aiden's but.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: We've been doing this together long enough that I can
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: usually tell where you're going with something. I'm like, I'm
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: interested to see where he goes with this, and no
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: one who also were interested to see that as well.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: So all right, fair enough, Yeah, solid day all around
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: for the Ohio State defense, O high State offense. I
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: think we know who RB one is at this point
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: for Ohio State. That's that I feel pretty confident in
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: saying that.
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: Bo Jackson was seventeen carries, the most forn O Higher
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: State running backs since quinch On Judkins at seventeen.
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: That was the season high.
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: Last year, which gives you an idea of the trust
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: they have in him, the belief that we need him
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: to run the ball to win this game.
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: And he ran the ball. They did win it.
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: He had some tough runs in there, carrying some tacklers
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: picking up. I wonder what his the efficiency the effectiveness
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: of those runs are because he only had a couple
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: where he was stopped short or you know, just maybe
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: a yard or two. Other than that, he had some
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: seven yarders, eight yarders, and you can the more he gets,
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: the more he's going to do. And I wonder what
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: we'll see next week against Minnesota, because it also feels
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: like somebody's due for a big game.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and you didn't. You didn't break one against Washington.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Washington's defense held up pretty well against his Ohio State offense,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: but Ohio State obviously was able to put points.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: On the board.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Just going through his list of rushes, first and ten
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: three yards rush, that is that is you're not staying
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: on schedule there. First and ten four yard rush. You
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: are staying on schedule. There, second and six five yard
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: rush that's a win. First and ten one yard rush
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: that's not a win. First and ten eight yard rush
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: that's a win. Second and two twelve yard rush. That's
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: a win.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: First and ten two yard rush. No second and eight two.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: Yard rush, No second and two zero yeard rush, No
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: second and ten six yard rush.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: Yes, second and nine eleven yard rush.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: I mean you're going through I can.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Go through the rest of it, but it's he's winning
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: more often than not. As you kind of go through
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: those numbers, and you know, seventeen carry eighty yards that's
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: not in long sixteen, that is not those are not
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: numbers that are gonna, you know, be hello Heisman numbers.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: But if you can just sort of stay on schedule
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: and you're running back, you're averaging four point seven and
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: four point three and you're not getting sacked, and you're
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: sort of staying on schedule and you're just sort of
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: it's not exciting, but staying on schedule keeps both, you know,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: keeps the whole playbook open. Staying on schedules basically, first
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: and ten, you want four yards, you're in second and six,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: second and six, you want four yards and then you're
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: in third and two and you know sec second and six, Yeah,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: you can run it or you can pass it.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: Third and two. Yeah, you can run it and pass it.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: You're just trying to get yourself in a spot.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Where you can credibly plan, you know, credibly do either
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: a run or a pass, and that makes you much
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: tirer defense.
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: He's now averaging ninety nine yards rushing per game through
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: through his pre games.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: He did not play.
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: Against Texas, so yeah, that's where he's he's been just
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: he's just getting started. But you can see and it's
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: so telling that the coaches and you know, Carlos Lock
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: and Ryan Day were like, it's time.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's time. It's a road game.
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: You never quite know what's going to happen when you
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: go on the road in the Big ten and to
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: and trust a true freshman. It's always interesting in college
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: football to watch the emergence of true freshmen or new stars.
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: And I don't want to say he's a new star yet,
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: but he is a true freshman who has clearly they're
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: putting a lot of care and energy.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Into Yeah, he's in the middle of that emergence for sure.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: Another guy who did not have a real exciting game
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: was Jeremiah Smith. And I was in the Jed Fishcress
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: conference off of the game, and I thought I should
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: ask him, what did you guys do to really limit
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Jeremiah Smith? And then you look at Jeremiah Smith's stats
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: and it's eight catches for eighty one yards and a touchdown,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: and it's like nine targets, and then it's like, well,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: did they limit Jeremi Smith? I mean, they kind of did,
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: but eight catches for eighty one yards and a touchdown
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: is like, also pretty much anyone would take that as
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: a win in terms of a day.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you'll need your excess and those guys to explain
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: it fully, but nearly every snap the corners would start
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: bailing big time and so trying to keep stuff in
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: front of them. But then in the second half, like
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: they opened up, just started throwing the short stuff. What
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: you want to bail, We'll take eight yards, We'll take
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: eight yards. And that's why you see he have ten
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: yards of catch. Basically, we'll take that. And his touchdown
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: catch was throwing behind the line of scrimmage, essentially on
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: the drag route. So, yeah, if you're going to give
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: up the short stuff, you take it, stay on schedule,
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: you move.
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: It's not pretty.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: Twenty two twenty eight for two hundred and eight yards
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: for Julian Say, no interceptions, completing another seventy nine percent
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: of his passes, which is what he does. And it's
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: and he was an effective Ish runner today. He ran
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: more because you know, he needed to. Didn't quite pick
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: up the first downs. He came close, but he did
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: have a key run on a third down to get
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: them into a secure field goal range.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: And that was a big move in this game early on.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was he had four carries and one of
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: them was a sack. Yeah, the twelve yarder was on
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: third and seventeen and it got it to fourth and five,
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: but it also got it from a.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: Forty nine yard field goal. The thirty two or you know,
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: something like that.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: It was a it wasn't quite that that traumatic, but
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: it was it got it from a you know, certainly
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: makable but long you know, medium to long field goals
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: thirty four yards.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: But it would it would have been a forty six yarder.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: And or if he gets sacked, it's worse.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, right, And and a forty six yarder. That's long enough.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: It's not incredibly long, but it's long enough that you know,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: the trajectory might be low enough that maybe it gets
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: blocked nerves. Yeah, well, and did you see what happened
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: to Jaden Fielding on that kick? He kicked it and
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: then his plant foot went out for under him and
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: he got flat on his butt. Which credit to Jaden
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: Fielding for having the technique to get that through from
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: thirty four yards that that you know, that could have
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: been a disaster as well. But the say in play again,
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: not exciting, but it set it up. It turned it
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: into this is a makeable play, and it turned a
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: fourteen to six lead into a seventeen six lead and
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, now it's not a one
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: score game. It's this was just a very effective, not exciting,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: not you know that you can go through a whole
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: bunch of stuff. This game was not, but it was
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: you know, it also wasn't a loss. It was not
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: a loss. And you go on the road to a
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: place that no one has won, No one has come
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: in into this stadiumven won since what twenty twenty one,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: I think, and twenty two straight wins for Washington at
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: home and the Black Eyes and that street with a
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: twenty four to six win.
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: And they also ended the twenty one scoring possessions scoring
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: drives in a row with an immediate three.
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: Now, yep, and that was it and impressive.
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: And this is not one of those games you rewatch
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: because of the offense. It's one of those games you
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: rewatch because of the defense. And I appreciate what they
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: were able to do. Yeah, so a lot to appreciate there.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: And as you heard Tony say, we're gonna get with
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: our exits those guys to get some more specific than that.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: I have great news, friends, We're gonna have Ross on

• 19:02
  Speaker 1: able to do to limit what Washington was doing in offense,
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: what Washing was able to do to limit what Ohio
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: State was doing an offense, and what it might mean
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: moving forward. As the buck Eye shift their focus now
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: to the Minnesota Golden Gophers.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: They're going to be playing at Ohio Stadium. That is
