Balanced. Capable of spreading it out, power running down your throat, capable of running it outside, and capable of running option. This offense has the ability to be a ball control passing offense, and can throw the ball downfield. This is the most balanced offense I've ever seen at Ohio State.

By the end of the season I might agree with you.
'95 still hold the mantle for most balanced in my mind. Eddie George, Bobby Hoying and Terry Glenn are nothing to sneeze at.
With Troy Smith at the controls, our passing game is already ahead of what we had that year. Let's wait and see if the running game can come close enough to Eddie to say that we're more balanced.

This year the Bucks O is definetly the most dynamic in college football. 1st and 10 on our 20 we can hand it to Pittman and expect production, 3rd and 10 Troy Smith can complete a big pass to either Gonzo, or Ginn. Last but not least 1st and 10 on the opponents 5 yard line.... Beanie to paydirt  . With so many different options you cannot give this offense a single name. |

It needs a nickname. North Coast Offense? Olentangy River Offense? Buckeye Barrage? Let's come up with one.

If it does that I'd nominate the term lethal
Though with all this Thunder & Lightning Stuff I'd like the sound of a
Scioto Storm.
