On September 16, 1978, Penn State went to Columbus and beat Ohio State 19-0 in the Buckeyes' home opener. No one had been able to beat OSU in their home opener since then...until last night, when the Hokies waltzed into the Horseshoe and left with an impressive 35-21 win.
The cool thing about last night's game is that we all knew the exact recipe for beating the Buckeyes. We had to shut down the running game, force their quarterback to beat us through the air, and score touchdowns when we got into the redzone. We all figured Bud Foster would blitz the heck out of JT Barrett and put his corners on an island. He did exactly that.
