Evaluating Ohio State football’s 45-0 win over Purdue Nov 10, 2024

Show notes

Ohio State handled its business with a 45-0 win over Purdue on a day when plenty of other teams around the country didn’t.

In the process of doing so, it also gained something in the win by playing as many people as possible and experimenting with different looks. It used a game where it could essentially name its score to find ways to still get better even if it wasn’t playing the best competition.

On this postgame episode of Buckeye Talk, Stephen Means, Stefan Krajisnik and Andrew Gillis discuss why the shutout win was so important for the 2024 season and beyond.
