Presented, always, without comment. But this bears stating: Ohio State has allowed opponents into the red zone five times in three games.
As always, stats are grabbed from cfbstats.com.

I love this segment!
This data=Eastern Michigan bloodbath.
If Ohio State can’t run the damn ball against this team for near 300 yards, something is definately wrong.
Get through this game injury free and with a W and move on to the Big Ten schedule and closer to another Big Ten title.

That’s exactly what I told the sportsMonkey yesterday. We need 300 yards on the ground, at least. And half of those better come from Berry and Hall. And little or none from Pryor.

I wish there was a way to split by half, or by quarter. Those numbers include significant data from OSU’s 2nd and 3rd teams.
And yes, I want to see Pryor pass 30 times for over 300 yards. Great article this week over at ATO shows the bottom line – if we want rushing numbers to come up, we’ve got to pass more.

What I want.
Pryor 21 of 25 for 301 yards, No carries cause even if EMU Brings all 11 Pryor should stiil have time to throw (come on O-line!).
