Luke Fickell, Assistant Coach
On tonight’s defense
“It’s not the sharpest thing in the world, we have our own thing to work on. That relentless mentality to get a 4th down stop on the goal line, huge momentum swings, things like that, they’re doing exactly what the culture of the program is and what we are asking them to do. But there’s a lot of things we can sharpen up as well.”
Nick Bosa, defensive end
On tonight’s defense
“It started off a little rough, we had some put-backs, but we stood together strong. We stayed to Coach [Fickell] great plan; I think it was 98 yards rushing.”
On his tackle-for-loss play
“I was excited to get on the field and make a play for my team. They put the people in on goal line for a reason, and I knocked them back, and made the tackle-for-loss.”
Marshon Lattimore, cornerback
On the Ohio State defense
“I still don’t have any doubt in our defense. They tell us all the time that we have to be our best at the end of the season. I try to work on little things and try to progress each week, little technique things.”
Sam Hubbard, defensive end
On the hard fought win
“We really wanted to stop the zone run because it’s a pride thing. To have someone come in your house and run the zone, we kept them under 100 yards and we’re happy about that. That’s what we wanted to do.”
On what Indiana did well today
“They have a great scheme. They threw things at us that we weren’t expecting and we had to adjust, but it really came down to just running the ball and getting off blocks. That’s how we were going to stop it.”
Billy Price, offensive lineman
On the offense’s passing struggles vs. Indiana
“They’re great athletes and they covered our guys. Some days you struggle with passing and some days you struggle on the run, and today was one of the days where we struggled with the pass. We’ll get better at it next week going into Wisconsin.”
