Why This Year’s Big Ten Championship Might Surprise You Despite Early Doubts
Ohio State does a lot of things well, but scoring isn’t the first that comes to mind. I really am not trying to take anything away from the best team in the country, but let’s be realistic about them. If the game is on the line in a two-minute drill, are you picking their offense out of all the ones in college football to get you the win? I suppose you could make a case that it doesn’t matter because they’ve played in exactly one one-score game this season, and it was the game I alluded to earlier as they beat Texas in Ohio in Week 1. They can run the ball effectively enough, and their quarterback, Julian Sayin, is reliable. I just don’t think they’ve really been challenged to do much on offense. Their defense has been so good, that you could probably put a significantly weaker offense than they actually have on the field and still come out victorious.
