[NU Sports] osu game plan

[Brad Wilson]

Alan offers a challenge. OK ...

1) Big plays. We need them. 80-yard drives against the
OSU defense are not that likely. Try some passes that
could go for big yards. A trick play or two. Some of
kind of reverse? A nifty screen?

2) Take some chances on defense. We need turnovers. Go
for it. Don't sit back and be picked apart. Rush 9
guys on 3rd-and-11. If they hit a big one or two,
fine, as long as we get one or two back.

3) Emphasize field position. Tressel is conservative
in his own end. Tell Demos to punt to pin them inside
the 25 or so, not just for distance. Avoid really long
FG tries.

4) Big plays from special teams. Go for a punt block,
set up something nifty on kick returns.
