firstly, i hope everyone had a good halloween weekend. i hate when osu plays halloween night because that just turns into me drunkenly keeping track on my phone in the back of some random house-party .. every year. lmao. anyways, nice win.
so, I do this after every win this season, where I recapped who I personally thought were the best OSU performers. just initial reactions right after the game finished, not looking at highlights or any sort of replay. whomever jumped off the screen for me.
(weeks 1-6 posts are linked on that ^ post)
October 28th (Wisconsin)
1. TreVeyon Henderson: I hope half of the posters on here that constantly belittled Tre, calling him "rb4" and say he was a bust recruit, realized how dumb they are. Tre adds a completely different dynamic to this running game, as he is the ONLY (yes, read it again.. the only) back on this team that can truly bust a run open from anywhere on the field. He was mostly showing nice vision, great strength, and excellent burst tonight. He is also a great asset as a pass catching back, and he can crib those as well. Great game for Tre.
2. Tyleik Williams: Another game where I was extremely impressed by 91's presence on the inside. He isnt flashy, as he wasnt in this game either, but man he was always near the tackle, making the tackle, or breaking down the pocket from the inside. 2 TFL and had an important sack.
3. Marvin Harrison Jr.: Another elite game from Marvin. He gets 100 yards and 2 TDs like its nothing, but he was, once again, the catalyst for the passing offense this game. Made some tough contested catches as well as turning some drag routes into RAC opportunities. Was pretty sure handed throughout the night.
4. Jordan Hancock: Jordan is quickly turning into one of the best nickels we've had in a long time, with a higher ceiling than Shaun Wade had (imo). He seemed to be everywhere this game. Being tight in coverage. In the backfield disrupting the running back. Making strong tackles. Great game for Jordan.
5. Jack Sawyer: I think Jack, quietly, had a REALLY good game last night. He didnt get home for any sacks or TFLs but man he was really putting the pressure on their QB in some key times. Finished with 6 major tackles.
