We heard some about it a year ago, Urban saying that while he liked the offense, he didn’t have the playmakers on the roster to really make the offense hum.
We heard about it during this summer’s camp, too. Jordan Hall was healthy, Carlos Hyde would miss only three games while sitting for his summertime indiscretion, the receivers had an additional year’s experience under their belts and there was that Dontre Wilson kid from Texas who was already tying up the first-team defense in knots.
We heard that we’d get to see what Urban Meyer’s offense really looks like in 2013.
There were glimpses against Buffalo and San Diego State. But on the road at California … boom, there it was. Again in the first half against Florida A&M.
But how would Ohio State do against Wisconsin, arguably the first real defense the Buckeyes had seen all year? With a quarterback who hadn’t played in more than two games?
Well, uh, yeah.
I still get the sense that we haven’t see the best of Ohio State’s offense. The best, I think, is yet to come.
Let’s hope there is more there to see. They are not showing national champ style yet. Maybe this week.
