Ohio State vs. Wisconsin final score: Buckeyes outlast Badgers, 31-24 - Land-Grant Holy Land
In Braxton Miller's first start after missing 11 quarters due to an injury, the Ohio State quarterback didn't look rusty at all. The offense was firing on all cylinders, for the most part, and while the Buckeyes secondary struggled a bit at times against Wisconsin receiver Jared Abbrederis, the defense was excellent throughout in containing Wisconsin's formidable ground game.

Bye Bye Bye " Eagle Totem Eagle Totem
This is not a good time for a bye week. The team has a bad taste in its mouth after the embarrassing homecoming loss to Ball State. The head coach is one or two more losses away from dusting off his resume and scouring the ranks for open coordinator positions. The fans are outraged and angry, rightfully so. Another disappointing season is laid out before them.

His top two targets, Kendrick Roberts and Josh Schaffer, finished with 4 catches each and had 73 yards and 39 yards and a touchdown respectively.

But now there's a new issue being raised: the possible mistreatment of players. Some alumni and fans recently stumbled across a video of Molnar's unique winter conditioning program he implemented in 2012 and have begun a petition demanding that he and his staff end "the improper treatment of current players".

Less than 10 minutes into the game, the Zips led 14-3. BG had been 3 and out once and had stalled once in the red zone.
