** 2017 Opponent Previews: Ohio State (Game 7) **


Recommended Posts


Quote

Nebraska football has faced Urban Meyer twice ever. The meetings happened in 2012 and 2016, both at the Horseshoe. Both times Ohio State scored 60-plus points.

 

But that’s not the scariest stat. This is: 

 

In the Buckeyes’ last 17 possessions against Nebraska, they’ve scored 13 touchdowns and two field goals. I kid you not. Both Blackshirt stops came in the fourth quarter in 2012 — a fumble after a 73-yard drive and a three-and-out. 

 

In both blowouts, Ohio State’s speed — and Meyer’s ability to exploit that speed — gave Nebraska fits. Can the Blackshirts hold up Saturday night at Memorial Stadium? Can they make tackles in space? Can they force negative plays?
