Ohio State's offense didn't suddenly break in 2025 — college football changed.
In this episode, we break down why explosive plays vanished from Ohio State's offense, why the same thing is happening across the sport, and how modern defenses have completely caught up to spread offenses.
We dig into:
Why explosive runs and passes are down nationwide
How defenses are winning on 1st-and-10
Why Ohio State's offense felt "compressed" late in games
The hidden difference between explosive rate vs explosive impact
Why this trend made life harder for Jeremiah Smith and the passing game
How this explains Ohio State's offensive struggles in big moments
And why this shift is exactly why Arthur Smith was hired
This isn't about tempo. It's not about throwing more. It's about how football is evolving — and why Ohio State is adjusting.
If you've been asking "What happened to the big plays?" — this episode explains it.
