Ohio State's defense just put together another clinic, holding UCLA to 68 rushing yards, 21 passing yards vs the starters, and dominating every phase of the night game in the Shoe. The depth showed up, the stars took over, and the Buckeyes continue to look like the most complete defensive unit in the country.

In today's episode, we break down:

🏈 Defensive Grades • Run Defense: A — Total domination up front • Pass Defense: B+ — Starters elite, backups learning • Special Teams: A+ — Blocked punt + kickoff return TD

📊 Snap Counts & Standouts • Styles, Reese, McDonald, Jackson, Curry • Young corners getting valuable reps • Rotation along DL continues to pay off

🔍 Field-Level Insights • Leadership from Caleb Downs & Sonny Styles • Why this defense is battle-tested even without a tough schedule • The emergence of young depth pieces across the roster

Ohio State is rolling into November with a defense that looks violent, fast, and absolutely locked in. Rutgers is next — but all eyes are on the final stretch.
