Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops called comments that true freshman backup quarterback Austin Kendall made last week about Ohio State’s defense “ridiculous”, and said that he will restrict media access to only include older players. I have a feeling there are more terrific plays to come. “We got beat in all phases of the game”. Ohio State quarterback J.T. Barrett got the offense in rhythm. The game was such a mismatch that the Tigers (3-0) scored two touchdowns in the first quarter with no time running off the clock. The Cardinals defense had nine sacks and forced two turnovers while holding the Seminoles (2-1) to 284 yards.
The Ohio State Buckeyes (2-0) outlasted Tulsa Golden Hurricane, 48-3, last week.
“We covered it pretty quick”, Patterson said.
On the other side of the ball, Buckeyes leader JT Barrett was locked in. That allowed the Oklahoma Sooners to drive the field before hitting the upright with a field goal attempt. I’m just saying it isn’t what it needs to be. That’s my job as a head coach to get that done. They went on the road and played at Oklahoma. We’ll add anything that we find about the weather in this article. Oklahoma’s cornerback problems were in full view in the first half as the Buckeyes continually tested Sooners freshman Parrish Cobb early.

“That really stung, ” he said.
“When any team motions, it makes it hard but I think at the end of the day it was about us executing the calls we were given and playing mentally sound”, linebacker Jordan Evans said.
For the Buckeyes, they control their own destiny from here on out. Brown’s third touchdown catch was one for the ages. They held a high-powered Sooner offense in check throughout crucial stages of the game.
They can’t stop anybody, can’t move the ball consistently and their quarterback is playing losing football.
“I hope it’s too early to figure it out, ” said Baylor interim coach Jim Grobe. By themselves neither replace Ezekiel Elliott, but together – with their mix of physicality and track-star speed- they cause havoc for defenses. “That’s the frustrating thing standing here”, he said. “We came out and had a good game plan”. In the near future, someone will make an even greater catch, and we’ll be rehashing this conversation all over again. I let the team down. Score: OSU 21 OK 10.

“We know we can hang with anybody in the country now”, Hubbard said. “Baker doesn’t throw the ball away and we lose 15 yards”.
“We messed up in the red zone, ” Mayfield said. Obviously the threat of the option requires disciplined pressure by the edge guys and as much as you want to commit numbers to the box it makes it tough because you want to try to roll coverage over your inexperienced corner. One could not have overstated how paramount that was to the outcome of this game.
Oklahoma will get a small reprieve this week as it has its first bye week of the year.
