After more than a month of waiting, Ohio State is finally ready to take the field one last time in 2023.
The Buckeyes close the season with a top-10 matchup in the Cotton Bowl at 8 p.m. Friday at AT&T Stadium, eager to end the year on a high note following their third straight loss to Michigan.
All eyes will be on No. 33, as Devin Brown becomes the first quarterback in Ohio State history to make his first career start in a bowl game. A successful outing could put him in the driver's seat to be the Buckeyes' starter in the 2024 season, while a rocky performance may have Ryan Day evaluating his options.
While Marvin Harrison Jr. hasn't practiced with OSU this week, freshman wideout Carnell Tate has drawn rave reviews from his teammates and could be in line for a big game if Harrison Jr. doesn't play.
Ohio State's defense is also looking to redeem itself and make a statement against an elite offense after allowing 30 points to Michigan in the team's season finale.
Eleven Warriors' Dan Hope and Andy Anders discuss each of the topics mentioned above in the final edition of Press Coverage before the Cotton Bowl and you can hear what they had to say in the video at the top of the page.
