Effect of inclement weather on this OSU Offense?

We've seen that the OSU offense can be really dynamic and prosperous in good weather conditions. 700+ yards and a balanced run/pass attack against UC. JT has been adept at throwing the ball, even if our receivers haven't been completely sure-handed to this point. While UC may not have been the best defense to use as a measuring stick, it's the latest one we can compare to.

But ... What happens when Mother Nature intervenes (as it might this weekend)?

Are we a strong enough running team to be able to grind it out in a steady rain or wind where passing the ball isn't a good option? Do we have the O-Line skill and depth to make such a plan work against better B1G opponents like Maryland, Wisky, TSUN, Nebraska, Iowa, or MSU?

Better question - if the conditions are poor, is it an advantage or disadvantage for our speedy/shifty skill players like Dontre or Jalin?

What say all of you?
