surprised to not see in the insta-recap: only 1 OSU punt. That's all we have to know. And if you want another stat, 5 for 5 on 4th downs.
Well our D got burned, but we fought better than we have, recently, against other ranked opponents. It gives me cause for hope.
I look upon this season as a great chance to assemble a wish list of players we may want from the Portal. Let’s be honest, our chances of an upset or two are looking better, now.
