Is the sky falling, or isn’t it? Sometimes, it can be hard to follow.
Ohio State’s proverbial sky certainly fell a few weeks about when Purdue trounced the visiting Buckeyes in West Lafayette, Indiana. But it was only one loss, and they followed it up with a win against Nebraska. A five-point victory over the Cornhuskers, who had just two wins at the time, didn’t exactly inspire confidence, but it helped the team move on from the loss that lingered during the off week.
The Buckeyes followed up that performance by beating a ranked Michigan State team by 20 points on the road in frigid, windy conditions, the exact weather that Mark Dantonio teams typically thrive playing in.
