What was once old is new again, at least in Ohio State's offensive playbook.
Though head coach Urban Meyer is known as an innovator of the 'Power Spread' offense that has become the norm in college football over the past decade, his team failed to live up to that reputation against Michigan State one week ago. Yet when facing the highly-touted defense of their biggest rivals in Ann Arbor just seven days later, the Buckeyes looked like those classic Meyer units, running at will before attacking downfield with the pass.
While Ezekiel Elliott saw a season-high 30 carries that led to 214 rushing yards in the win over Michigan, he could've easily had more of both.
