Mark Bowman

A little bit different here.

My best flight, Mark Bowman, USC tight end.

Freshman, absolutely took flight.

Just

lament when they lose and that way I never inherit anybody's misery or joy for it is not earned by me anyway and I'm there to be impartial as impartial as I possibly can so

um can I ask you which was more impressive for you um was it the Mark Bowman touchdown run or excuse me long run after the catch near touchdown or was it Lincoln Riley's prepared speech that he read afterwards

Oh, that's a tough call.

I'm going to have to punt there.

I know that Ohio State doesn't pay money.

Mark Bowman, the tight end for USC that made that big play, Ohio State's not paying that kind of money to get a guy like that.

If you paid the type of money, maybe Keenan Bailey looks better.

Carlos Lachlan had a ton of money to go get David Gabriel George, right? Keenan Bailey's not getting that money.

Hopefully there's no more extremes.

Indiana, November 14th, get on the airplane, pack your defense, pack that toughness, pack that same discipline that you played in the whiteout, Trent Mosley, Mark Bowman, go beast those guys.

Tim Miller, Waymont Jordan, John Alston, Deshaun Rideau, everybody.

Offensive line, go win the line of scrimmage.

And then, you know, things just rolled.

And of course, the thing that was growing through my mind was, you know, Mark Coleman, you know, just incredible run.

I mean, we'd seen him hurdle before, but it was not only did he did hurdle, but he also shook two tacklers after the hurdle.

The Keystone Cops.

Call 1-800-GRAINGER, clickgrainger.com, or just stop by.

Grainger, for the ones who get it done.

Greg, you mentioned the players, so I wanted to highlight some of those players, starting with the one and only Mark Bowman, who made his return to the field after multiple games away with that hamstring injury.

We knew he was going to be a little bit limited, was on a pitch count, played a season low, snaps this season, I think around 23.

So one of the guys that we're going to talk about is going to be in our tight end segment here.

Mark Bowman, man, he is a beast.

That 70 yard reception was phenomenal, which we'll get to that sooner than later.

But let's just talk about Fahey here.

So if you have time of possession and total yards, first downs, all of that in Ohio State's favor, a big part of why USC won is chunk plays.

Explosives.

And that 70-yard would be one of them by Mark Bowman.

Bowman.

tough.

Tripp Mosley and Mark Bowman, like I said earlier.

I know.

That's what I said.

And like you're saying, running counter Trey, like he'll run his run screen option or his RPO, and it's based off a counter, right? So he's going to force you to tackle in space.

There's not a lot of people that are good tackling in space, right? If you're asking a Will linebacker, Sam linebacker, they're good within the box.

But if you put them out there with a lot of green grass and you put somebody like Trent Mosley, or Mark Bowman in space, like I know those guys, right? Like that's not, there's not a lot of people that are good at that, right? Like they're just,

Same with bubbles.

I don't think this is a great rep from Allegro either.

I just don't believe that no one is tasked with carrying Mark Bowman's route a little more.

And then obviously, like the end of this play is really ugly.

I mean, guys were trying to strip the ball instead of make the tackle, which is one of those things.

The scheme and the structure just is A little unusual to me.

I don't know what else to say.

But yeah, between this play with Mark Bowman and then, you know, the other two plays that I consider the true daggers in this game were obviously the second play of the game, which I believe we at Buckeye Insiders will be talking about in a later video this week.

And then also, you know, Ohio State got USC into a third and 18 game.

They've got the wide receivers, but again, a ton of them are young.

Mark Bowman's a freshman.

Caden Dixon-Wyatt's a freshman.

Are you going to be relying on freshmen to step up in big games? Maybe, and maybe they will.
