The passing game has still been there these past two weeks. Julian Sayin has made plenty of great throws. Max Klare stepped up as the Buckeyes' best pass catcher without Jeremiah Smith and Carnell Tate today.
It’s without a doubt been the running game to lead Ryan Day, Brian Hartline, and Keenan Bailey’s offense in the absence of Tate and Smith. Ohio State’s 42 points were just above their 11th-ranked 37.5 points per game. Their 430 total yards were right around their top 25, 441.3 per game, too.
Great to see the passing game have a solid drive without Tate and Smith.
