Ohio State responds to Oklahoma backup’s ‘basic’ comment after easy win

Ohio State got some easy bulletin board material this week when Oklahoma freshman quarterback Austin Kendall said the Buckeyes had a “basic” defense. The comment was made on a Sooners’ pregame show during the week leading up to the game, and garnered a lot of attention for obvious reasons.

Well, that trash talk apparently did nothing but ignite a fire into the Silver Bullets, who had a pretty dang good game Saturday night, as they rolled past the Sooners 42-24 in Norman.

Please believe, the Buckeyes were not quiet after the game.

Cardale Jones, like many of us, wanted to see Kendall get some snaps:

Don’t be surprised if teams are silent the week before they play the Buckeyes from here on out this season.

Stay “basic”, Bucks.
