Buckeyes Recap Wild Weather Conditions at Northwestern, Give Thoughts on Improving Offense and Defense in Final Stretch of the Season

The weather conditions last weekend against Northwestern certainly made life difficult at times for Ohio State.

The Buckeyes entered their matchup with the Wildcats as 38-point favorites, but only managed a 21-7 victory over one-win Northwestern. A good portion of the slog could be attributed to strong wind gusts that made the thought of throwing the ball a foolhardy errand at best.

Seven players met with reporters Wednesday – Jesse Mirco, C.J. Stroud, Luke Wypler, Ronnie Hickman, Marvin Harrison Jr., Mason Arnold and Palaie Gaoteote IV – and the weather at Northwestern was a popular topic of conversation, as well as how their units are looking to continue improving with three games to go in the regular season.
