Northwestern Notebook: Ohio State Finally Scores An Opening Drive Touchdown, Offensive Line Fixes And More

A giant smile flashed across Ed Warinner's face.

Ohio State's co-offensive coordinator finally had an opportunity to discuss a successful opening drive. The Buckeyes went 94 yards on nine plays in just 2 minutes, 56 seconds to open up Saturday's game against Northwestern. They scored a touchdown on their opening drive of the game for the first time this season.

"It was clear that that was pointed out earlier in the week," Warinner joked.

Prior to Saturday's game, Ohio State mustered a grand total of three points on opening drives this season. It was a big reason why the Buckeyes started slow in a number of games.
