What happened? To OSU's credit, it cleaned up some things. Not as many blown coverages in the secondary. Tackling was better. Gap integrity improved.

Game is won or lost in the trenches. Toughness and physicality great tangibles as well. Culture very key. Day's recruits filtered in, and not for the better. Harbaugh’s recruits and Baltimore Coaches filtered in, and for the better. Don't let a rogue Staffer blind you on how the game of Football should be played
