Ohio State went to Indy with one thing in mind: Win another Big Ten Championship. Wisconsin also had the same goal, and looked pretty motivated to make it happen in the fist half. It came out more aggressive, executed a fantastic game plan, and went into halftime up 21-7.
But then something kicked in for the Buckeyes after the break. In a roll reversal, Ohio State found the physical brand it needed to move the ball on offense, and made some critical adjustments defensively to shut down Jonathan Taylor and the Badger offense.
At the end of it all, the Buckeyes took home another Big Ten Championship and are now headed to the College Football Playoff.
Wisconsin head coach Paul Chryst was no doubt disappointed his team couldn’t finish the deal, but he still met with the media to face the music and provide comments and answer questions about what transpired.
He complimented the skill, talent and coaching of Ohio State, and talked about the pride he had for his team. If you missed those comments, we have it for you thanks to the Wisconsin Badgers’ YouTube account.
