I think as a whole, we feel good about Saturday. What a month ago most had as an L, looks 50/50 now.
What is the key to this game?
I think the first 5-8 minutes of this game are the most important 5-8 minutes of a football game we've had in a long time.
Ohio's crowd will be amped but Ohio players probably have a little bit of doubt somewhere in the back of their mind from last week.
If they come out early and hit us with big plays and go up a score or two combined with the sold out home crowd....all the lack of momentum they're feeling from getting blown out last week will be erased.
However
If we come out and hit them early and take the crowd out in the first quarter, that adrenaline from the home opener goes away and the doubt creeps back in.
I think the first half quarter of this game could make of break the game.
