Knowing Matta and his laser focus on just the next task at hand and nothing beyond, it wasn’t surprising. And, perhaps, with all due respect to the Tigers, it wasn’t really that important anyway. Lack of physicality was one of the things that hurt Hicks last season as MSU’s replacement for 2013 Thorpe Award victor Darqueze Dennard. I’ve never seen a ideal team.

MI State will be hoping their starting quarterback can recover in time to play in next weekend’s showdown at the third-ranked Ohio State.
“I was pleasantly surprised, especially at our start”, he said. We can’t lose our momentum.
Both the Ohio State basketball and football teams are undefeated, although there are many differences between the two.
Fejedelem himself limped to the sideline in the second half with a twisted ankle and did not return although he said he expects to play in the next game at Minnesota.
This season, the stakes are different for Ohio State in that sitting at third in the CFP rankings, it presumably controls its own postseason destiny. Meyer said it was the best offensive performance of the season. They held the Tigers to just 34% shooting from the field. Just the little things. All of a sudden, the disaster could turn into a triumph.Elliott opened Ohio State’s next drive with a 16-yard scamper through the IL line.
Williams had a 9-for-12 shooting night from the floor and made 3 of 5 3-pointers while also snaring five rebounds. We know we have a really good opponent coming into our house.
Q. Coach called you guys – young people resilient, after the Nebraska game, that you guys bounce back maybe better than the coaches do. “I felt like I was active”. He statistics may have fallen this season (4.0 sacks compared to 13.5 as a sophomore), but that isn’t because he is playing poorly–it is because offenses are focusing so much attention on him.
Ohio State – despite its puzzlingly underperforming offensive line and season-long controversy at the quarterback position – is in a attractive spot entering the stretch of November everyone has been waiting for. They have been the favorites for the number one seed since before the poll came out. “That’s what we wanted to do”. We work with local, county, state and Federal public safety partners to accomplish the mission, and that is a good point. He was the only one in our class who played there.
Before speaking to him though, I honestly had no idea. Even triple teams couldn’t stop him Saturday as he already had six tackles, including 2.5 for loss, in the first half. But their offense looks better than we thought. He’s got a quick release. I have a lot of friends that I went to high school with that attended the university.
In SI.com’s latest National Football League mock draft, the Buckeyes have seven players getting selected in the first round.
“I was happy to see Trevor, he got three straight dunks there”, Matta said. “We threw for over 300”. We’ve got to get the balance of the inside-out.
“I’m very fortunate to have the opportunity to coach here at Ohio State especially for 12 years”, Matta told reporters.
Every Sunday (well, in this case Monday), after a whirlwind autumn Saturday of college football, we’ll be taking you around the Big Ten to keep tabs on the rest of the conference. The ball split us and got into the paint, and when that happens talent takes over.
Matta didn’t necessarily dispute Walker’s point. “Just coming into this game, no one believed in us”. It has an FBS-high 35 turnovers. “We’ve got to continue to build on that”. That again- 568 total yards if you’re counting.

When Ferguson broke off a 27-yard run, IL had a few momentum, the almost full student section was cheering and the largest crowd of the year (55,515) was dreaming big. Even though the Hoosiers are on a six-game losing streak, there’s a chance to end this with something big with winnable games at Maryland and Purdue.
