Hey, hey, where you been? But got to talk is about to begin. Hey, hey, hey, come on in.

0:30.0

Welcome back to Buck. I talk another money madness. I'm Nathan Barrett from Cleveland.com along with Doug Lamarice. We are down to the nitty gritty of the season.

0:39.0

At least the regular season on how state coming off of a 58 31 victory 59 31 victory. Excuse me over Purdue and gearing up for two huge games against top 10 teams Michigan state on Saturday.

0:52.0

And obviously at Michigan right after Thanksgiving next week. And we want to get back into a little bit of what we saw from that Purdue game Doug as you just texted to our subscribers 614 3503315.

1:06.0

A lot of data kind of breaking down exactly what happened in this game. One of our big posts game conversations was how Purdue had performed against George colitis.

1:16.0

Pregame conversation was how it was going to be post game conversation was what exactly happened there. And I think by going back and looking at the game, you have an even better idea of what hostage did to slow him down and stop him and really make him a non factor.

1:32.0

It reminded me of what Ohio State did against Indiana linebacker Mike McFadden in that game. And I made a big deal about that and did a big post with screenshots about that that when there's like one standout defensive player.

1:49.0

The state has really done a good job of targeting that guy, taking that guy out of the game, making sure that guy doesn't ruin your afternoon. And I thought they were awesome against car loft is there's a lot of credit to go around.

2:05.0

He flopped constantly.

2:09.0

He was back and forth left side to right side in the first half. He wound up over Dewan Jones over right tackle Dewan Jones 20 times.

2:18.0

And he was over Nicholas petite friend the left side 19 times. So he's going back play to play. You don't know where he's going to be.

2:25.0

And then I think he got tired of Dewan Jones, because in the second half towards car loft was over Dewan Jones at right tackle only four times.

2:33.0

And he was over Nicholas petite for air 16 times at left tackle. So for the game 39 times he was Russian off the right his right side over the Ohio State left side and 20 times he was going against Ohio State's right tackle, but it wasn't just the tackles.

2:49.0

But it was started with the tackles. And again, Ryan, they talked about some of the things they did.

2:55.0

But it started with the idea that NPF and Dewan Jones played great. And I had questions about them. I think a lot of people did coming into the game. They had not played as great.

3:05.0

The previous couple of weeks, he did not beat them inside ever. And they constantly took him wide and let CJ Straub step up in the pocket. And they just mulled him in the run game. Like he, I had him.

3:21.0

I counted 61 plays. Again, sometimes I count the penalties because you're blocking the guy. It's apparently gets called back. You still had to do work that that play.

3:30.0

I had 61 plays for the Ohio State offense before the last final drive that used up the last seven minutes of the game. But it was back ups and at that point it was over. It didn't matter. So I didn't count those.

3:41.0

So Carloftus was in for 59 of the 61 snaps before that. So he's playing constantly. And I had him for wins on four out of 59.

3:54.0

So he had to play early on where they didn't block him. They again, like did not block the backside defensive end or a linebacker. And he tackled trivia on Henderson for like a three yard game. And it was like, here we go. They like leaving that guy unblocked. Why they leave that guy unblocked.

4:10.0

But that was kind of like the only time that happened where it hurt him. They did leave him unblocked on other times. And we'll talk about that very effectively.

4:18.0

He had a play where he knifeed inside Dwan Jones, Dwan Jones kind of with. And he tackled mine Williams, like on a second of one hit him right in the hole for a loss of one. That was a good play.
