Short-attention-span synopsis: Ezek-lethal Elliott. Now we know what J.T. stands for: Just Touchdowns.
Pregame buzz: Nothing lukewarm about them. Fans love them or hate them. Gut feeling? There wasn’t quite enough AC/DC generated by the new look for the Buckeyes to be Back in Black anytime soon.
The $125 question: It felt more like Dark Night of the Soul more than Dark Night in the Shoe until Barrett blew into the game and the Buckeyes’ defense blew up Christian Sackenberg and the mood lightened considerably.
One-liner: Never seen Ohio Stadium so fit and trim.
