Buckeyes Blast Badgers, Claim Crown Originally Published: Dec. 20, 2014 OHIO STATE VS. WISCONSIN Redemption: Buckeyes Blast Badgers, Claim Crown By JEFF SVOBODA Buckeye Sports Bulletin Editor As the Ohio State football team danced, high-fived and screamed its way joyous- ly throughout its locker room Dec. 6 in Indianapolis, there were a lot of emotions in play after the team’s 59-0 slaughter of Wisconsin in the Big Ten Championship Game. There was jubilation. There was relief. There was excitement for what was likely to come. And in some ways, there was aston- ishment at the lopsided final score of the game, a drubbing that went down as one of the largest demolitions of a ranked team in college football history. “If you would have told me earlier this week that we would shut them out 59-0, I wouldn’t have believed you,” senior Michael Bennett said after OSU won its first-ever league title game. “I think it would have been a hard-fought battle, but we would have come out on top. “But seeing the guys before the game and what was going on in the locker room and how just hyped up everyone was and how everyone bought in to what we were saying, maybe I thought they would get seven points. A shutout is a big deal against this offense.” Anything that could go right did go right for the No. 5 Buckeyes (12-1) against the 13th-ranked Badgers.

  • Former Ohio State Cornerback Eli Apple Agrees to One-Year Deal with the Carolina Panthers
    Former Ohio State Cornerback Eli Apple Agrees To One-Year Deal With The Carolina Panthers Nearly two months after his free-agent deal with the Las Vegas Raiders fell through, former Ohio State cornerback Eli Apple agreed to a one-year contract with the Carolina Panthers. The deal was first reported on Thursday by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, who noted the deal is worth $3 million and includes a $750,000 signing bonus. The team later confirmed the signing. We've agreed to terms with Eli Apple! pic.twitter.com/u4FmMgfvUJ — Carolina Panthers (@Panthers) May 28, 2020 A first-round selection (10th overall) of the New York Giants in the 2016 NFL Draft, Apple struggled with injuries early in his career. He was also notably suspended by the team following an argument with a coach and called a “cancer” by teammate Landon Collins. Apple was then traded to New Orleans just five games into the 2018 season for a fourth- and seventh- round pick in the 2019 and 2020 drafts, respectively. He started 25 games with the Saints over the last two years, recording 13 pass break ups and two interceptions. The 24-year-old actually agreed in principle to a one-year, $6 million deal with the Raiders during the first week of free agency in March. But two sides were never able to finalize the agreement, and the team opted to former Cleveland Browns safety Damarious Randall at half the cost instead. Apple — who helped the Buckeyes to a national championship as a redshirt freshman in 2014 and was the most valuable defensive player of the 2016 Fiesta Bowl — will be reunited in Carolina with former Ohio State wide receiver Curtis Samuel and offensive lineman Branden Bowen.

  • GARY KUBIAK HEAD COACH – 22Nd NFL Season (12Th with Broncos)
    GARY KUBIAK HEAD COACH – 22nd NFL Season (12th with Broncos) Gary Kubiak, a 23-year coaching veteran and three-time Super Bowl champion, enters his third decade with the Denver Broncos after being named the 15th head coach in club history on Jan. 19, 2015. A backup quarterback for nine seasons (1983-91) with the Broncos and an offensive coordinator for 11 years (1995- 2005) with the club, Kubiak returns to Denver after spending eight years (2006-13) as head coach of the Houston Texans and one season (2014) as offensive coordinator with the Baltimore Ravens. During 21 seasons working in the NFL, Kubiak has coached 30 players to a total of 57 Pro Bowl selections. He has appeared in eight conference championship games and six Super Bowls as a player or coach and was part of three World Championship staffs (S.F., 1994; Den., 1997-98) as a quarterbacks coach or offensive coordinator. In his most recent position as Baltimore’s offensive coordinator in 2014, he oversaw one of the NFL’s most improved and explosive units to help the Ravens advance to the AFC Divisional Playoffs. His offense posted the third-largest overall improvement (+57.5 ypg) in the NFL from the previous season and posted nearly 50 percent more big plays (74 plays of 20+yards) from the year before he arrived. Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco recorded career highs in passing yards (3,986) and touchdown passes (27) under Kubiak’s guidance while running back Justin Forsett ranked fifth in the league in rushing (1,266 yds.) to earn his first career Pro Bowl selection.
