Our Buckeye wide receivers have not been playing as well as many thought they should be this season. After the past two years of big plays and production, Brians Robiskie and Hartline have been under-achieving all year with the exception of this past week against Michigan St. True freshman DeVier Posey should get more looks with his big play potential and already strong relationship with TP. Our tight ends (Ballard, B. Smith, Nicol) have played well all year, look for them to continue to pull in catches and be huge on third down.
Penn State has a potent line-up filled with play making receivers. These guys are what make the offense so dangerous every time they get on the field. With Clark's arm strength and accuracy, all these guys need to do is find a seam and they could be gone for 6. Deon Butler, Jordan Norwood, and Derrick Williams have combined for over 1,000 yards and 9 TD already. I like our DB's matched up on them though because they are all undersized at under 6' but this also gives them ability to sneak through coverage.
Pressuring Clark and making him throw the ball before he is ready gives the Buckeye defense a chance to win this game. Ohio State's receivers have to step it up and hold on to the ball when hit. The deep ball may be open but TP has to take what he can get while throwing.
