Maybe it didn’t go quite as expected, but Ohio State held serve at home, found some toughness, and elbowed its way to a win against a top-five opponent 21-10 on Saturday night.
There’s clearly still some work to do, but it’s really hard to judge a team after just one game, and one against what looks to be a pretty good defense at that. At the end of the day, the Buckeyes are 1-0 and still staring at all of its goals right on the table, with some tape now to use for improvement.
