In Eleven Warriors' weekly football column, we go behind the scenes for Ohio State's game-winner against Notre Dame and detail Brian Ferentz's rough day for Iowa.
With a narrow three-point lead, Ohio State had points taken off the board after an unnecessary roughness penalty was called on offensive tackle Josh Fryar for jumping on a defensive lineman who had been driven into the ground on the second-to-last play of the quarter. The penalty wiped out a Buckeyes’ third-and-long conversion, leaving Ryan Day befuddled.
For the first time all game, Notre Dame had taken the lead and simultaneously erased a 10-point deficit with a little over eight minutes remaining. You don’t even want to know what Eleven Warriors’ Twitter mentions looked like when Day elected to run a jet sweep with Emeka Egbuka on 4th-and-1 in the red zone.
As the team broke the huddle, you could tell by the look on some Ohio State players’ faces they understood the significance of the upcoming play. In the final season of a four-team playoff, a single loss is enough to put you on the brink of elimination from the College Football Playoff, even if it’s a top-10 opponent on the road.
With a wide hole on the left side, you’ll never guess where Chip Trayanum ran to cement the biggest Ohio State win of the season, and arguably the biggest win by any college football program four weeks into the very young 2023 season. Once the referee standing by the pylon signaled touchdown, the Ohio State sideline was sent into a frenzy.
Enough time had passed from the touchdown review that Ohio State’s assistants who normally coach from the booth had made their way to the field, thinking the game all but over. That included defensive coordinator Jim Knowles, who frantically shouted instructions to the Ohio State defense before Notre Dame tried a failed hook and ladder on the final play of regulation.
