Buckeye talk is about to begin.

Hey, hey, hey, come on then.

Welcome back to Bucket Talk. I am Stephen E. That's Stefan Kreisink. And that is Andrew Gillis.

And we're coming to you from the press box inside of Ross Aid Stadium after Ohio State's 34 to 10 win over Purdue to improve

to 9.0. Killis, do you think Ohio State accomplished what it needed to accomplish today?

Considering the circumstances, I think yes. You didn't have Cornell Tate.

Cornell Tate was obviously not a go. Ryan Day said that he felt something a little tight in

warmups and they just didn't want to push it. Makes sense. I get it. Philip Daniels didn't play.

You were able to rotate, I think, a little bit defensively. Purdue, you know, they had some success,

but there really wasn't a ton that they did offensively. So you look at the

defense and there's not really any concerns there long term. Offensively, I think they

accomplish their goal in the way of Ian Moore has played now. And if you need Ian Moore to

play for you in a big spot, you are not asking Ian Moore to come in and say, welcome to the lineup, kid,

have fun. Like Stephen brought this up and he was saying, you don't want to find out if

Ian Moore can play football against Michigan or in the postseason. You want to find out today

because now he can go back. He can get some constructive criticism. He can go work on some things.

The same thing applies at Receiver with Rice and Rogers and Mylan Graham and that whole group where it's like, hey, you know, it, you know, Carnell Tate, he was not in the lineup, okay? Carnal Tate, JJ, something happens, it pull a hammy and they're out for a few plays, not even anything long term. It's just they,, you need, their helmet pops off and it's third and four against Indiana in a big 10 title game and you need them to come in. You've got these guys' reps. So I think they accomplished what they needed to accomplish for today. Long term, there are still some things that we'll get into those. Long term, there are still some issues that they need to work out. They need to figure out. Yeah, I agree. I wrote about this at the buzzer, too. Like, it helped Austin Serevold last year to start playoff games because he had played left guard for you those first two games, right, going into the season where Donovan Jackson was out, right? So obviously, you knock on wood and you hope you don't need it, but if this Purdue game was going to teach you anything, it was going to teach you depth, right? And instead of seeing Ian Moore, and with the backups in the fourth quarter, we got to see him play, you know, significant snaps early on. We saw it with either knowing how it's one yawa too he had a snap i think it was
