11W Roundtable: Dan_Hope, ramzy and RemyBuckeye preview Ohio State's CFP semifinal matchup with Georgia.
Georgia defensive tackle Jalen Carter looks to be the most NFL-ready player on either roster and the Bulldogs lead the nation in rush defense allowing 76.9 yards per game on a nation's third-best 2.93 yards per attempt allowed. What would you consider a successful night for Ohio State's ground game?Nobody has rushed for more than 140 yards in a game or hit five yards per attempt against Georgia this year, but I’ll still say those should be goals for the Buckeyes on Saturday night.
If the running backs are able to get three carries of 10+ yards, if C.J. Stroud tucks and runs when needed, if the team breaks the century mark on the ground and if the passing game stays aggressive, the night could end with Ryan Day’s team preparing for the CFP Championship. That’s a lot of ifs.Ohio State's best chance to move the football with success will likely be by putting the game almost solely in C.J. Stroud's hands.
The Buckeyes cannot wait until the third drive of the game this time. If Georgia establishes the tone early leaving Ohio State flailing its arms while a giant bully condescendingly sits on its chest and drools on its face, the state of Ohio will run out of booze before midnight.I wish I could buy what the team is trying to sell, but now being Missouri Matt, this team is going to have to show it to me on the field. What I want to see is toughness.
