August 31, 20197 yr Author This ladies and gentleman is why sports betting is not for the faint of heart. Go up 28-0 in the first quarter. Give up negative yards on D in the first half. Fail to cover the 27.5 point spread.

He lacks experience as we saw throughout the game but he’s good enough to play for us. Far from a finished product, need more out of the Oline and running game.

The biggest thing he needs to figure out is how to be “The Guy”. Take over the game when he needs to. Whether it be with his arm or legs. I think the running game will be fine I just expected more from the first game on the ground. Overall I was pretty happy with this game.

I know I remember a few of you questioning why Fromm was basically getting all the reps. While Fields ceiling is crazy high. He still has much to improve on, and Fromm already had a whole year of successful big game experience on him. Going to OSU where he really didn't have to do much to win the job, was perfect for him. He has plenty of areas to improve on, but he can get the chance to learn while on the job.

Fields joins his predecessor Dwayne Haskins as the only two Ohio State quarterbacks in the program’s 130 year history to account for five touchdowns in their first start. We’ll settle for him.

We’ll settle for him. No doubt. He most likely will finish the year in the top 5 in the Heisman race too in the OSU system.
