Ohio State Kicker Jayden Fielding Still Confident in Himself Entering Rose Bowl Despite Recent Struggles

One of the biggest question marks for Ohio State entering the Rose Bowl is how well the Buckeyes can rely on Jayden Fielding if it needs him to make a field goal with the game on the line.

Fielding didn’t do so in Ohio State’s regular-season finale against Michigan, going just 1-for-3 on his field goal attempts with misses on both of his kicks longer than 30 yards, a 38-yard attempt in the second quarter and a 34-yard attempt in the third quarter. Those six points ended up making all the difference in The Game as the Buckeyes lost to the Wolverines by just three points, 13-10.
