In this Buckeyes football news and rumors update, Ohio State Buckeyes head coach Urban Meyer isn't about to take his foot off the gas pedal with his team heading into a bye week.
Per Rusty Miller of the Associated Press, "if any naive Ohio State football players had a notion that they were getting this week off, coach Urban Meyer dispelled that possibility almost immediately."
Meyer is allowing his team two days of rest (Sunday and Monday) before bringing them right back to the practice field on Tuesday.
"Time to move on, a bye week, and then get ready," Meyer said right after Saturday's 66-0 annhiliation of Kent State. "I watched Cincinnati and they're a very talented team, so we're going to put everything we can into it the next two weeks to win that game."
The 23rd-ranked Buckeyes meet up with the Bearcats on September 27th, and they will likely still have the sting of their 35-21 home loss to Virginia Tech fresh on their minds.
"It still hurts from last week," quarterback J.T. Barrett said, via Miller's article on Monday. "We're still going to come out aggressive. (Cincinnati is) a good team. I don't think we're going to sit on this."
Meyer will make dang sure of that.
