• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Wore joined Blay Turner Garman here in rass Aid Stadium
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: in West Lafaette Perdue, you know, West Lafe at Indiana.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Uh it is, Buckeyes win thirty four ten. Yeah they
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: sure did they sure dynamite drop in Monty. Yeah, they
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: win thirty four ten. I don't know it was. It
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: was a game where you had some weird stuff. They
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: were shorthanded in some areas and no, uh you know,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: no Josh Padilla, no Philip Daniels, no Carnell Tate and
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: no Taiwan Malone, no Taiwan Malone. Yeah, they were just
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: kind of shorthanded into couple. Is not anything that's like
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: a real concern, but shorthanded in couple areas, and it
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: sounds like that really kind of played into how all
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: highre State approach things.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, especially on offense with we saw some rotation on
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: the offensive line, but also with so many different receivers
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: playing as well, because Carneal Tait can do everything that
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: you need. He can play in the slot, he can
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: be a Z, he can be an X. But without him,
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: and you need a slot, well you've got to go
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: grab a slot. If you need an AX, you gotta
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: go grab an X. Because we saw Mylon Graham, we
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: saw David Adolph, we saw Bryson Rodgers X Y Z
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: basically in terms of trying to fill some of those roles,
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: and no Quincy Porter also the freshman receiver kind of uh,
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: you know, clouded some things there as well, but it
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: still is good to see Bryson Rodgers get out there,
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: get targeted, you know, Milond Graham get out there and
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: get targeted. So yeah, it was not ideal, but also
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: maybe it was.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Well and you look at the stats at the end
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: of the game and the whole game, it just kind
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: of felt like, yeah, you know, the gift of the
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: you know, poking thing with this day like do something.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: It was it kind of felt like that at times
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: where it was just they were just sort of being.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: A little bit deliberate with anything.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: And then you look at Julian Saye's final stat line
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: and he's twenty seven for thirty three for three hundred
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: and three yards in a touchdown and one pick, and
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: you know, you complete eighty something percent of your passes
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: again and three hundred yards passing, and yeah, you know,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: the interception was not a great decision, but you know
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: it was another for a day when you don't have
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: one of your top receiving targets, it was a perfectly
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: fine day.
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, any other time you look at those and if
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: that wasn't like Julian saying, you'd be like, well, yeah, gosh,
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: a quiet day for Julian Saying completing eighty percent of
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: his passes and three hundred three yards, and I think
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: it would all look much better with like three hundred
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: and seven yards with just you know, a couple of
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: two yard touchdown passes thrown in there.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Uh huh.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: Which was also one of the things that kind of
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: struck me with this game, like they they had those
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: opportunities and basically chose not to take them and just
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: you know what, let's just keep it on the ground. Whatever.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: Everybody's expecting you to take a cheap touchdown through the air,
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: and it's like, doesn't happen. So it's like, well, you know,
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: that's if you don't want us to care. If you
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: don't care and you want you know, they don't expect
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: us to care.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Basically, yeah, there were there were two CJ. Dollison rushing touchdowns.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: At one point they took Julian Saying off the field,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: brought Lincoln Keenhols onto the field for a rushing touchdown.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: It was just kind of it was it was like
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: a oh, we will show you how much we don't
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: care about when.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: We say we're not worried about status of the Heisman Trophy.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: We're gonna show you how much we don't care about
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: status of the Heisman Trophy.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: And they still were up thirty four to three.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: They gave up a late touchdown, but it was one
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: of those games where it was three nothing perdue.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: In the first quarter, and I took a picture of
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: the scoreboard.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Because I'm like, well, this will be you know, a
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: thrill for Purdue fans. This is this is like a
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: little benchmark of progress for them that you know, it's
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: the end of the first quarter and they got a
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: High State off the field on the first drive, and
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: they had a long drive and ended up kicking a
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: field goal and you're leading a High stayed and it's
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: like all right, well and then no High State goes
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: right down the score a touchdown, and it was you know,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: the game was never really in doubt, but it was
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: also never really it took a while to kind of
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: put it away.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: You know, Produce student second.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Is chanting overrated at points in the second half, and
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: it's like, well, I mean they're they're winning by they're
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: winning by three touchdowns in your stadium, and so yeah,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: technically they're not covering a spread right now. But also,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: you know, that's a little bit of a slight a
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: little bit of a cell phone.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: Did you get the photos of the student section, the
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: male student section up there, taking their shirts.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: Off, twirling their shirts.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: Yes, the college football taking a world by storm, Even
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: so boiler Maker Peet and Brutus go up there, kept
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: their shirts on, but they were up there.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was you know, it was a perfectly fun
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: day of college football.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: The crowd stayed until what halftime was the.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Student section kind of was about half empty after halftime,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: but the there was a good Ohio State Kings. It
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: was not I'm sure on TV it looked like it
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: was ninety percent Ohio State fans here. That's because the
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: side of the stadium that the cameras are showing it
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: was all Ohio State fans. The side that was on
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: the same side as the as the cameras you couldn't
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: see on TV.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: That was pretty much all Perdue fans.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: But I mean it was it was probably about a
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: fifty to fifty crowd, and you know, the Ohios Date
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: fans I think got you know, got what they came for.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: It looked the first drive, it looked like, oh man,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: here we go, the show has the show has begun.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: Bo Jackson reps off of at seventy or a touchdown
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: and ends up getting called.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: Back on up block on the back on Jeremiah Smith.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: And it was just, you know, it was just kind
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: of like you thought, oh boy, here we get And.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: Then even that one, it was good to see him
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: reach the end zone this time because he's been caught
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: from behind previously, so he finally gets there and you know,
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: what are you going to do? Bench Jeremiah Smith. No, No,
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: I'm just hoping he doesn't bench me, basically, but yeah,
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: just gonna see him reach the end zone even though
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: it doesn't count. Like he got there. He outraced everybody.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: And he made up for it later by getting thrown
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: the ball ten times and having ten receptions for one
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: hundred and thirty seven yards and a touchdown. Just you know,
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: I don't have you know, I don't have a question.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: It's just kind of like, yeah, man, that was cool.
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: Don't you guys agree?
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: Don't you hate pants?
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: The great thing is you never know what you're gonna see,
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: but if you give him the opportunities, you're gonna see
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: something pretty cool.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: On defense, a nice balanced day forever it was, you know,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Peyton Pierce had seven tackles, Sunny Styles five, Caleb Down four,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Jayleen McClain four, Kayden McDonald four, all solo tackles. But
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: it was just they.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: Only hit forty one tackles. Perdue had eighty three tackles.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Ohiostate only hit forty one tackles. It was just it
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: was a game where I came in thinking, well, Purdue's
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: game plan is going to be to run the clock
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: as much as possible in limit Ohio State snaps. And
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: if that was the game plan, they failed about as
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: hard as you could possibly fail. They did.
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: And guys, maybe at the start of the fourth quarter,
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: I looked and there were only twelve Ohio State players
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: that had defensive statistics. It's like generally you see more
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: than that, but because they're not on the field very long,
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: like there's just you know, then they get into the
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: backups and you start seeing different names. But it was like,
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: are they not keeping track stats anymore? Is this just
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: what's going on here? But they held them in check
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: after that first that it wasn't it wasn't the nine
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: minute drive that they did against Michigan, but it was
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: like the five minute version of that that ended with
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: the field goal.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the opening drive six place, fifteen yards, they punt it,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: second play, second drive twelve place, seventy yards, get a
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: field goal out.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Of it, five nine off o'clock.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: But after that four plays nineteen yards, punt, two plays
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: ten yards, interception, three plays five yards punt, five places
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: twenty yards punt, three plays five yards punt and at
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: that point they get the ball back with six nineteen
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: left in the game, Ohio States got all their backups
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: in and then they go ten play seventy five yards
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: for touchdown. If you go through and you know you
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: have one, two, three, or five drives in a row
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: where they never get past twenty yards and it's four
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: punts in an interception, you're not gonna You're not gonna
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: win very many games with that. And this is a
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Purdue team that just last week went up to ann
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Arbor and was competitive. It was twenty one to sixteen,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: and they looked okay, and they had you know, they
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: had moments, but they couldn't really string it together. This
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: was kind of Ohio State even playing sort of lethargic
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: at times, just kind of made Perdue go squish and
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: it was there was not There was not a lot
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: of drama there.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: No, and they were methodical. I think in our bald
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: predictions you had maybe like three ninety second drives touchdown,
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: drive show and that was not the game plan today. No,
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: this is ninety ninety yards eight minutes. But even the
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: the produce stuff there with just there's they get the
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: one drive and then that's everything gets shut down and
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: everybody's just crisp after that until you get the bench
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: out there and then they go down there and it
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: is what it is. It's a learning experience for those guys,
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: so that you know, you don't hold anything against them, Tom,
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: don't be angry. They'll be better for it, and they'll
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: also never want to do it again.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: And you know, this was a game where Ohio State
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: just kind of it felt like, ohiose.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: It was just sort of work shopping stuff. It's like, yeah,
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: we're gonna try this and okay, here's the scene. Ready,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: all right? Is it improv?
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was improv and it was you know, okay,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: here's the scene. There's forty seven seconds left. You're gonna
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: get the ball starting at the U I don't know
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: the twenty four yard line and you've got no timeouts.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: And you've got to get the ball down to do
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: you want to score a touch on?
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: No, we're gonna get the ball down. We're gonna let
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: Jayden field and try a long field goal. Because the
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: drive was nothing but checkdowns. It was just all and
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: it was very clearly like you could take it. You
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: could take a shut No, no, just okay. So the
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: scene is we're gonna set Jaden fielding up for a
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: forty nine yard field goal. Go and they did, and
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: they went boomom boom boom right down the field and
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: didn't never once even looked a downfield shot. It was
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: just okay, boom boom, boom, lots of sideline routes eight yards,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: twelve yards, thirteen.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Yards, eight yards again whatever it was.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Boom boom, set up a forty nine, forty nine yard
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: field goal.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: He drills it hit a forty five or forty six
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: yard or later. That was.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: I thought that was great to see because he's been good,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: but he's missed a couple and the you know, everything
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: that's outside of about forty five, you always kind of go,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: how's this gonna go? And both of them were good,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: were good with plenty of leg I thought that was
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: That was a really nice you know, it was a
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: nice way for Julian saying to be in a little
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: bit of a live fire two minute drill.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: That was good.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: He set up what they were trying to set up.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: You hit a couple of long field goals.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: That was I thought a nice little side benefit.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure, And I think you're gonna find out
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: a lot of those are the coaches well throughout this
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: while Leadia's complaining fans are complaining or just like you know,
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: nitpicking or whatever, coaches like, well, this was good to see,
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: this is good to have, This is good that these
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: kicks went through. So positives that the coaches are gonna find.
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: For this's probably more than the positives that you and
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: I or the fans out there will find.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: Sure.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: So all right, so the buck Eyes handle business thirty
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: four to ten over Purdue. Next up Ucla after that,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Rutgers after that.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: You know what happens after that.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: Twenty days away from the game, the game against Michigan,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: twenty seven days away from what could be a Big
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Ten championship game against Perdue. If both the Buckeyes and
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: the Hoosiers handle their business before then, man, oh man,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: would that be an exciting football game. So looking forward
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: to that, looking forward to covering all of the fun
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: of November. You always remember November, As Ohio's Lieutenant governor
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: once said, we will be there for all the steps,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: every step of the way through November and December and
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: potentially January as well, as the Buckeyes try to wrap
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: up an unbeaten regular season Big Ten championship season and
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: potentially a national championship season as well. All their goals
• 11:54
