    That's brutal for them. Their offense is geared around handing the ball off to Connor and then throwing to Tyler Boyd once the defense stacks the box against the run. Now, Boyd is going to be double and triple-teamed constantly.

    Blowout incoming.
    Ohio State is not even full strength.

    I wonder if Cardale Jones keeps his job through game 1. Looks like that might not be the case.

    Do you blame him for the tipped ball(s)?

    I just don't think he's a very good QB from a passing standpoint.

    My guess is Barrett starts the 2nd half and the Ohio State QB battle is finished. Over an entire season, it ain't even close call IMO. Barrett is just better.

    Looks like Jones is getting another chance.

    And he made the most of it. Good drive for a TD ensures he keeps the job for a little bit longer.

    Screwed long term too, having your starting QB likely break his collarbone in the first game of the year is brutal.
