A defiant Billy Price answered matter-of-factly when asked if his Ohio State team could take care of business against Michigan if it performed the way it did in its 11th game of the season.
“If we execute, absolutely,” Price said after the Buckeyes beat Michigan State 17-16 on Saturday. “Absolutely.”
Price claimed he and the other Ohio State offensive linemen wanted to keep running the ball down Michigan State's throat on Saturday in an effort to wear out a depleted Spartans front. That seemed like a wise move considering the whipping wind that wrecked J.T. Barrett and the passing game plus the fact the Spartans were without their best defensive lineman, Malik McDowell.
