EXACTLY.
@Across The Field will tell you until he is maize and blue (see what i did there) in the face -- Ohio State is as physical as any team in CFB and the reason OSU brought the house almost every down against UM last year had NOTHING to do with the fact, the coaching staff didn't trust their defensive front to hold up to Michigan's physicality up front (like they couldn't in 2021).
Holtz was spot on. I'm thinking that is why Ryan Day was butt hurt over the comments. Like I tell
@Across The Field, sometimes the truth hurts.
OSU had a national championship offense the last two years and ended each year with nothing, because their defense couldn't handle opposing teams playing physical with them. Look what players like Stroud is doing in the NFL, like Garrett Wilson, like Chris Olave, the list goes on and on. It is a shame for OSU faithful their defenses have been so soft. They wasted the best offense in CFB two years running.
