Just as I like to say “a win is a win” I will say that a loss is a loss. That being said, there were some positives to be found in yesterday’s slugfest that looked early on like it was going to be a boat-racing on Ohio State’s behalf. Let’s get to it, shall we?
Quarterback: D+
Sean Clifford was a pedestrian 10-for-17 for 71 yards and hadn’t done much on the ground when he left the game with an injury. Will Levis came in and put on a performance that my trust colleague Clay referred to in the BSD Slack channel as “Connecticut Tebow” by running straight at the Buckeye defense, gashing them at times, including for a touchdown during PSU’s 17-0 run in the third quarter.
