The 10 biggest surprises through Ohio State's first six games, including Cade Stover's pass-catching ability, Denzel's Burke's inconsistency and Mike Hall's emergence.
In his first-ever game with at least 15 carries, Williams ran for 189 yards and an Ohio State single-game record-tying five touchdowns against the Scarlet Knights. It was Williams’ second straight 100-yard performance to start the Big Ten schedule, as he dashed for 101 and two scores on just 11 carries against Wisconsin the week before.
Many projected Tuimoloau to truly burst onto the scene for the Buckeyes with a proper offseason under his belt, but even if he’s been solid after receiving an uptick in playing time, his statistical productivity hasn’t been much to write home about – at least when it comes to the category that matters most for defensive ends.
Tuimoloau may go on a tear to end the season, but starting the back half of the season, he’ll be sitting on a goose egg in the sack department.By this time last year, Denzel Burke’s success as the top cornerback on the Buckeye roster as just a true freshman was among the bigger surprises on defense. This year, his sophomore struggles are the main storyline surrounding his season.
Burke’s performance against Michigan State was an improved one, with Cameron Brown taking the heat for a poor effort of his own. But Burke will have to step up in the latter half of the season if Ohio State’s cornerback stable is to put some lingering concerns to rest as the Buckeyes pursue an undefeated record in the regular season.The first half of the season hasn’t gone according to plan for Kourt Williams.
