Maryland Recap (Opening Segment)
~00:56 – 05:15 Riley: Solid but not spectacular win. Offensive line was banged up with timing miscues; both running backs (“the Jackson Two” — Bo Jackson and Jacoby Jackson) played well and complement each other. Jeremiah Smith got early touches and made them count. Defense was mostly solid (7 of Maryland’s points came from OL miscues).
Garrison pushes back lightly on the “no clear RB1” take, noting Bo’s...

OhioStateVOCFB – Ohio State vs. Maryland Postgame Live
Hosts: Garrison Gaddy & Denzel Jones
Chapter 1: Maryland Game Analysis (0:31–2:04)
0:31–1:10: Intro. Ohio State defeats Maryland 45-6. Box-score look suggests a clean blowout, but the hosts note it was messy. 1:10–1:50: Key issues: penalties, offensive line injuries (right guard/tackle out; Austin Serville also out). Defense overall solid but had areas to clean up. 1:50–2:04: Denzel’s take — game was “real sloppy.” Run blocking was strong and backs ran hard, but too many penalties (example: two consecutive all-size penalties on a rushing TD drive).Chapter 2: Offensive Performance (2:04–5:19)

00:00–01:43 Ohio State is not a program that treats a road loss as a moral victory. A 24-23 result in Austin would have looked respectable in the offseason. The way it happened is the problem.
