Barrett is Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week
Top-ranked Alabama plays Western Kentucky, No. 2 Clemson faces Troy, No. 8 Washington plays Lamar, No. 9 Georgia has Nicholls and No. 10 Wisconsin faces Akron, among other potentially-lopsided matchups. Sure, Michigan might have something to say about that, but the Buckeyes are once again loaded on both offense and defense. For starters, most of these universities in the Top 25 this week face smaller opponents, some even of the FCS, a kind of second-tier first division of college football – perhaps the game most hard is the classic # 16 Iowa x Iowa State. Coach Urban Meyer’s Buckeye record is 51-4.

“I don’t want to put on a good show”, Montgomery said.
Tulsa has a more potent offense than Bowling Green and hopes to solve the Ohio State defense after its 45-10 win over San Jose State.
Redshirt senior quarterback Dane Evans has started in 31 games for Tulsa, including last week’s contest with San Jose State. I know it was the first game of the season and you need to get your three quarterbacks in but Auburn shot themselves in the foot with the revolving door of QBs. Last weekend against Georgia, he completed 24-of-40 passes for 156 yards and had neither a touchdown nor an interception. Barrett threw six touchdown passes, equaling his career high in a game, which is also a school record.
That job is to come out with a win, regardless of how far-fetched it might seem for a four-touchdown underdog. After a down year statistically in 2015, the DeSoto, Texas, native is fully healthy with the starting position firmly in his grasp. It shouldn’t be much different against Tulsa.
The best thing about how Weber looked on Saturday, the young back definitely wasn’t afraid of the moment, running with authority on each and every carry. Sprinkle has a Patella Tendon injury. He hauled in six receptions for 112 yards. Said he is not quite ready yet for college football.
“We’re going up there with the mindset that we are going to do what we’ve got to do to win the football game, and in between the lines is where we’ll decide whether that happens or not”, Montgomery said.
Brewer provided much of Tulsa’s offensive fire power in its first game, rushing for 164 yards and three touchdowns. Harris returned the ball 63-yards for the score.
“Two NFL prospects at wide receiver, a returning veteran at quarterback”, Meyer noted. Young, Tulsa’s defensive coordinator, was Ohio State’s defensive coordinator from 1988-1995.
Last season, Tulsa surrendered an average of 536 yards per game. The Golden Hurricane was 13th in the country in total offense a year ago. Defensively, Tulsa is allowing 10 points and 287 yards per game. For one, they won’t see another team like the Buckeyes on their schedule the rest of the year.
Yes, Louisville’s Lamar Jackson was wonderful in accounting for a school-record eight touchdowns against second-year FBS team Charlotte, and Miami beat FCS Florida A&M in every way imaginable.
The Buckeyes were equally successful in Week 1. Trent Martin leads the Golden Hurricane with 11 tackles, Petera Wilson Jr. has 1.5 sacks and Jesse Brubaker has one interception. But he was cool in the pocket, delivered the ball on time to the right receiver, and that couldn’t have been easy in his very first college game, in front of 107,000+ people.

Barrett this season will not be limited in his number of options he has to throw to, and this fairs well for the Buckeyes.
