It definitely looked like Ohio State had revenge on their mind last night in Austin because they destroyed the Longhorns 24-7. It was just one year ago that Texas squeaked past the Buckeyes 25-22 towards a NCAA football National Championship. It was the first time in a decade a #1 vs #2 matchup occurred in college football, but Ohio State didn’t allow the game to meet the hype. The two keys to the Buckeyes victory was their inexperienced defense stepping up and playing stellar along with Heisman hopeful Troy Smith throwing for 269 yards and two touchdowns. Cincinnati is next on the schedule for the Buckeyes and then come back to back weeks against Penn State and Iowa.
