Michigan Kicking. Ohio State Punting. Michigan Punting. Stroud C. Cade McNamara C. McCarthy J. TreVeyon Henderson T. Well, Walker's candidacy suffered a fatal blow. Not only did Stroud obliterate the Michigan State defense to the tune of yards and six touchdowns, but the Ohio State defense smothered Walker. He finished the day with only 25 yards rushing on six carries and caught one pass for 4 yards.

Whether it's fair or not, Heisman votes are often settled by how you play in your team's biggest games. While Walker has come up huge time and time again for the Spartans this season, voters will have difficulty looking past this game, especially in contrast to how Stroud played. In a way, the larger obstacle in Stroud's way on the field today might not have been Walker, rather his teammates. The good news for Stroud is that all his top receivers have similar numbers, while Smith vastly stood out from the pack at Alabama last season.

This is C. The Buckeyes did not look like the Buckeyes we've all come to expect early in the season, which is natural. They had to replace Justin Fields, and it took time for Stroud to settle into the role. Defensively, this team replaced its defensive play-caller following the Oregon loss, which meant it then had to adjust to a new person calling plays for the defense.

It was only natural that there'd be speed bumps. However, when you combine the way the offense played last week against Purdue to how well both sides of the ball fared against the Spartans today, this Ohio State team looks to be peaking at a great time. The Ohio State team we've seen the last two weeks is an Ohio State team capable of winning a national title, not just reaching the College Football Playoff. I don't mean they shouldn't extend coach Mel Tucker.

If they believe he's the coach to lead this program in the future, then the school should sign him for as long as it wants.

I suggest waiting until after next week's rivalry game against Penn State if it's a win or before Michigan State's bowl game if the Spartans lose to the Nittany Lions. Having said that, if I'm Mel Tucker, I'd sign it quickly -- if he hasn't already.

All week long, I'd heard about how Michigan State had the worst passing defense in the country. It was a point that was hammered home repeatedly during the broadcast as Stroud, and the Buckeyes ripped the Spartans apart. Michigan, which only had a split of the Big Ten East back in , is also seeking its first Big Ten title since The Wolverines were the better team from start to finish. They went 75 yards on the game's opening drive to take a lead and never looked back.

The Buckeyes briefly took a lead during the second quarter, but UM erased it quickly. The key to the game was Michigan's rushing attack, led by Hassan Haskins, who finished the day with yards rushing and an astounding five touchdowns. Aidan Hutchinson carried the load for the Michigan defense, picking up three sacks to set a new single-season program record with 13 takedowns. Both Jaxon Smith-Njigba 11 receptions, yards and Garrett Wilson 10 catches, yards had huge days for the Buckeyes offense, but it wasn't enough to get the win.

This was a dominant Michigan performance: It wasn't a case of Michigan catching a break or two that decided the game or Ohio State having a bad day. Michigan was the better team from the jump and never took its foot off the gas. Every time Ohio State seemed to get a grip of the game, Michigan answered. Every time Ohio State needed a stop on defense, the Wolverines relied on their offensive line and running backs to keep the game alive.

It was remarkable how often the Wolverines were able just to turn around and hand the ball to Haskins or Blake Corum to keep moving the chains, and they delivered seemingly every single time. The Wolverines were also the more disciplined team on the day. There was an interception from McNamara in the first quarter that killed an early chance to go up two scores, but other than that, the only blemishes were two penalties for 20 yards.

Compare that to Ohio State, which never turned the ball over but lost 66 yards on 10 penalties. There were five false starts on the Buckeyes that hurt the offense, and on one defensive possession, they rewarded the Wolverines with first downs thanks to an offsides call and pass interference. To beat a team as talented and dangerous as Ohio State, you must play a nearly perfect game.

On Saturday, Michigan did just that, and it's going to Indianapolis because of it. Elegant Michigan State Basketball Wallpaper Pin On Michigan Sports. Pin On Football. Pin On Michigan State Football.
