Ezekiel Elliott Cited Three Times in Car Accident
Ohio State beat Notre Dame 34-20 in the 2005 game.
He might move to the interior for his team’s New Year’s Day matchup with the Fighting Irish with Washington and Schutt out, but knows the burden to fill their shoes falls upon inexperienced players like Donovan Munger, Michael Hill and others. Elliot has already left with the rest of the Buckeyes for Glendale, Arizona, where No. 7 Ohio State will take on No. 8 Notre Dame this Friday, January 1. And I think the Buckeyes could have a hangover effect with so many players focused on the NFL Draft and the disappointment of not winning the Big Ten and having a chance to repeat as national champions.
If there is a weakness on the Notre Dame offense, its their offensive line.
“We’ll have a new quarterback and we’ll get down to who that will be (in spring practice)”, new offensive coordinator Tee Martin said. Jimmy Cordle, a former OSU standout who is a graduate assistant, will address line issues on the sideline.
That dream went out the window when Ohio State was beaten by Michigan State, 17-14, on November 21. We’ve got some answers for that. We were taking advantage of that.
Kiffin had opportunities to leave Alabama after year one, but he stuck around in part because of how last season ended.
“You feel it (frustration) but there is nothing you can do about it now. I have my decision and you guys will know after the game”, Bosa said.
“This year, we spent the offseason growing and I think that was big because if we just tried to do our offense last year with Jake and the people we have now, I don’t think we’d have been as successful”, Kiffin said.
Ohio State running back Ezekiel Elliott will play in the Fiesta Bowl, a university spokesman confirmed Monday, despite being cited for multiple offenses after being involved in a traffic accident Sunday in Columbus.
Ohio State is 4-2 in its previous six Fiesta Bowl visits.
Ohio State’s offensive statistics and Barrett’s numbers both dropped this season. He also missed two games this season when he had surgery to fix a broken bone in his right wrist. A scenario where someone like Michigan State went 11-1 but didn’t make the playoffs (picking up a Rose Bowl invite instead) and dropped 2nd place B1G Ohio State to the Fiesta Bowl wouldn’t have been insane at all.
One thing we’ll see for sure is a pair of the nation’s best go at each other in the trenches. Tight end Durham Smythe is also expected to return from a torn MCL he suffered in the second game of the season.
Regardless of what injuries occur during the year, they play the same way, whether they’re up or down, and I think it’s a great lesson in life in the sense that they deal with what’s in front of them, they handle their business, and they keep moving forward, and I just think it’s a great example of how this game teaches great lessons, and this group taught me a great lesson of how to just stay in the moment and keep working through it. Even though it may be hard, they just keep moving forward. “When we all click, which has definitely happened this year a few times, it is a pretty scary thing to watch”.
