Ohio State Working to Identify Origins of Poor Starts Offensively

Ohio State enters the final game on its schedule before Halloween still searching for its first touchdown on an opening drive this season. That is, of course, unless you want to count what happened in the season opener against Bowling Green.

J.T. Barrett threw into traffic near the Bowling Green 37-yard line and Brandon Harris snatched the ball out of the air, turned on the jets and beat everybody the end zone. The play gave the Falcons a short-lived 7-0 lead against the Buckeyes but also was about the most inauspicious way an opening drive could go.

It hasn't gotten much better for the Ohio State offense since that pick-six.
