Buckeyes, Northwestern kick off at noon on Nov. 8
Want another sure sign that this season has taken a turn for the worse for Ohio State? How about this: The Buckeyes’ game on Nov. 8 at Northwestern will be played at noon. It will be televised on ESPN or ESPN2.
That’s the time slot usually reserved for teams like Indiana, Purdue or Connecticut. No more 3:30 ABC slots for OSU.
It’s probably just as well. Yes, Ohio State and Penn State played some great defense on Saturday night, but 13-6? One touchdown was scored in the game. One.
Did you notice some of the other scores last Saturday? Here are the point totals put up by some other top-15 teams: Oklahoma, 58; Florida, 63; Texas Tech, 63; Georgia, 52; TCU, 54; BYU 42.
Those points totals look like college basketball scores.
Yes, I know Terrelle Pryor is a freshman, but you’ve got to put the ball in the end zone. The Buckeyes have played three games in which the offense has failed to score a touchdown. And they still could go to the Rose Bowl.
Amazing, but true.
