Decent punt return by Tennessee. Florida can't afford to let them score a TD. Because I don't think Florida can score one of their own.

Ohio State quarterback J.T. Barrett is 1-of-18 on passes thrown at least 20 yards downfield in his last four games (dating to last year's game against Michigan). Since his struggles began, 86 different Power 5 players have more completions on 20-yard throws than Barrett, including 16 players in the Big Ten.

Say what you will about Florida, their defense is good. Our offense did fairly well against them. Think the jury is out on our offense. They make mistakes. Limit those and I think we're in business. If the mistakes continue it will stress the defense and could lead to bad outcomes.

The best interpretation of our offense is that we were almost painfully vanilla the last two weeks and brought out the "real offense" against Florida when they were basically good.

I think it's more accurate to say we're incredibly young so can't really sustain drives without a mental mistake, but if you wanted to be generous you could say that.

Wisconsin's Hornibrook has looked pretty solid through the first 3 games of the season so far. I wouldn't be surprised if McSorley and him end up being the best 2 QBs in the conference by the end of the season.
