HotMic’s Five For Friday (10/21)

1. Do the Buckeyes cover the 29 point spread tomorrow?

2. Best for dipping a hot pretzel: stadium mustard, yellow mustard, nacho cheese or beer cheese?

3. Who was your favorite athlete growing up?

4. Aside from Ohio State, what game are you most looking forward to this weekend?

5. Where does Halloween rank on your list of holidays? (no, we aren’t arguing if it’s really a holiday or not)

Football Wednesday Injury Observations (UPDATE: Kourt Williams confirmed out)

For whatever it's worth, here's what we saw after practice:

Jaxon Smith-Njigba was in full uniform, and he was one of the last to leave the field after getting extra work in on the Monarc passing machine. The expectation is still that he will play against Iowa.

TreVeyon Henderson and Miyan Williams were both in uniform. Jordan Hancock was in uniform. And Kamryn Babb did not have his huge knee brace on as he left the field.

Why we can't get overconfident about the Buckeyes

If you've been a Buckeye football fan for over 60 years like I have, you have seen loaded Buckeye teams roll through the season undefeated, ranked in the Top 3, needing just one more win to claim the National Title.....and then lose the final game.
A few years, what seemed like an unbeatable team would take an average team for granted and suffer a shocking upset. They'd regroup after the loss and win the final games, but that one upset loss would delegate the team to finish No. 3 in the final polls. If winning was preordained, we wouldn't have to play the games. Championship teams peak at the right time, and get lucky.
Most of those great teams had All-Big Ten, All-American cornerbacks. Will the lack of elite CBs be the Achilles Heel of this year's championship run?
Our hearts have been broken so many times. we worry before and during every game.
