About this episode

Ross Fulton analyzes the Ohio State Buckeyes' running game issues and their adjustments during a recent game.

The Ohio State Buckeyes struggled to run the ball against lowly Ball State on Saturday, but seemed to get things on track after halftime. But was that just a function of the Cardinals wearing down in the heat? Or did offensive coordinator Arthur Smith and the OSU coaching staff identify and fix an issue? In this episode of Ross Fulton Analysis, Ross takes a look at zone tracks, what was going wrong in the first half, what they got fixed, and what it could mean for this weekend's top-5 showdown in Austin.
