The Beat: Ohio State building identity, addressing concerns in time for critical B1G stretch
Austin & BirmShow Notes
Ohio State is gaining confidence and establishing an identity after winning in a tough road environment on Saturday at Iowa. Maryland doesn’t represent as much of a challenge this week in the Horseshoe, but the Buckeyes know critical matchups are looming in the College Football Playoff race after that and are emphasizing improvement across the board — both in areas where they’ve already taken steps forward and in some where it’s still needed.
Former Ohio State captain Zach Boren popped in for a midweek Blitz on The Beat to dive into all of those topics before the Buckeyes take on the Terrapins.
