by Tulsa comes into this game 0-2 after close losses to UC Davis and Oklahoma State. The ultimate goal for Tulsa should be just to keep this close on the road.
Davis Brin will look to lead his offense against a Buckeyes defense which struggled with the Ducks. The junior does not have a single touchdown yet but has thrown two interceptions. His QBR has only been a 43.9 so far. He needs a bounce back game soon.
Deneric Prince is the headline running back for the Golden Hurricanes with 30 carries for 185 yards and 2 TDs in the opening two games. If Brin struggles, then the workload will fall on Prince.
The defense has been the strength for Tulsa. They have only allowed 47 total points over two games, an average of 23.5 points per game for the opposition. The high-powered Ohio State offense will serve as the first massive test.
Senior linebacker Yohance Burnett was the leader in tackles for the team last week. Burnett and fellow linebacker Dorian Hopkins will need to be active not only against the run, but also apply some pressure on Stroud.
