‘ONE FOR THE AGES’ Ohio State topples first top-10 team under Meyer

TIM MOODY Sports editor moody.178@osu.edu Breathe in. Breathe out. But make it quick. That’s the mindset Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer had after his team topped Michigan State on Saturday night in East Lansing, Mich. “We can’t exhale very long,” Meyer said after his Buckeyes won, 49-37, in a rematch of the 2013 Big Ten title game. “We go on the road next week against a team that whooped Iowa.”

The Buckeyes (8-1, 5-0) now sit alone atop the Big Ten East Division standings after breaking a tie with the Spartans, but are scheduled to travel to Minneapolis on Saturday to take on Minnesota. The Golden Gophers shellacked the Hawkeyes to the tune of a 51-14 win Saturday to move to 7-2 on the season. Despite the implications the win against the Spartans has for the Buckeyes going forward, senior defensive lineman Michael Bennett said the most important focus for OSU has to be put on the Golden Gophers. “The biggest thing is making sure guys are ready for that game,” Bennett said after the win.

“Minnesota is a really good opponent. They’ve been winning a lot of games.” Going forward, redshirt-freshman quarterback J.T. Barrett — who threw for 300 yards and ran for another 86 while scoring five total touchdowns against the Spartans — said preparation will be key for OSU going forward. “One of the main things we need to do is just make sure we practice hard,” Barrett said after the game. “We’re going to enjoy this, but knowing that we still need to play better next week.” After a run of four straight games starting

Roommates help take down band of burglers CHELSEA SPEARS Multimedia editor spears.116@osu.edu When one of the men living at 444 E. 16th Ave. awoke to the sound of footsteps running up and down his stairs, he turned on the lights — and realized his house had been burglarized. Once the other housemates were aware of what happened, they didn’t call the cops. They didn’t even take an inventory of all the stuff that was missing.

People jump into Mirror Lake during the early morning hours of Nov. 9, shortly after OSU’s 49-37 victory over Michigan State in East Lansing, Mich.

Mirror Lake won’t be drained for jump LOGAN HICKMAN Campus editor hickman.201@osu.edu Students hoping to plunge into Mirror Lake this year might get the opportunity, despite earlier talks that the lake could be drained in the process of reconstructing the campus landmark. After months of an ongoing renovation to Mirror Lake that left some wondering whether the jump into the water will occur, it’s looking like the tradition might prevail. In the meantime, some Ohio State fans took to the lake early Sunday morning following a Buckeye win against Michigan State. Despite reports that the lake might be drained after university leaders were expected to choose a final design plan early this month, Administration and Planning spokesman Dan Hedman said the lake won’t be touched during November — the month when students take to the water the Tuesday before the OSU-Michigan game. “Final adjustments to the conceptual plan are in process and should be completed by the end of the year,” Hedman said in an email. Once those adjustments are made, an estimate of construction costs will be determined, Hedman said. A Facebook event about the jump said it’s scheduled for Nov. 25. About 3,000 people had replied to the event saying they’re attending the jump as of Sunday afternoon. The lake was drained after last year’s jump to allow for work on a sustainability study aimed at preventing water loss because of leaks in the lake’s structure. The study was also set to address maintenance issues related to deterioration of the lake’s walls, and it ultimately determined that groundwater is a viable option for sustaining the lake. The study cost about $28,000.

Instead, they grabbed a crowbar and a baseball bat and jumped into action. “Our adrenaline’s going, and we’re mad,” recalled Dominique Ybanes, a second-year in strategic communication and one of the renters of the property. “So if we see them, we’re going to take the opportunity.” It wasn’t long before that opportunity arose. With flashlights in hand, Ybanes and his housemates hit the streets. “(My housemate was) just like, ‘They have to be around here. They have to be around here.’ So we

Student gets worldwide support after he was attacked for being gay Ledford said he could not remember the 10 to 15 seconds after the punch, but remembered thinking that he needed to “go home and solve the situation from there.” Once home, he called Williams to let him know

DANIELLE SEAMON Arts editor seamon.17@osu.edu “Hi babe — I just got punched in the face. A guy ran up to me, called me a fag and punched me.” Jerad Williams recalled that his boyfriend’s phone call shocked him. A photo of the incident, though, would go on to shock the Internet. About 20 minutes before the Thursday evening call, Williams — a first-year in zoology — had just parted ways with his boyfriend of one month, Cole Ledford, a third-year in business real estate. Returning from a friend’s house, Williams and Ledford traveled down the university stretch of High Street at about 11 p.m. in the rain, planning to eventually split and go back to their respective homes, one on campus and the other off. The two held hands during the walk. Along the way, a group of men Williams said were in their 20s called the couple “fags.” Williams said this was the first time he had experienced prejudice for his sexuality. The two decided to separate about five minutes after the incident, arguing in jest and kissing each other goodbye before parting. “(Williams) crossed the crosswalk, and the next thing I knew, someone yelled a gay expletive at me and then punched me,” Ledford recalled. The assaulter — whom Ledford also described as a man in his 20s — kept walking, leaving Ledford on the ground. There were few people on the street because of the rain, he said, but no bystanders stuck around to help him.

Cole Ledford, a third-year in business real estate, has gained global attention for a Nov. 6 tweet that he wrote after being struck by an individual who witnessed Ledford kissing his boyfriend.

campus Ages from 1A at either 3:30 or 8 p.m., Bennett added it will be important to be ready to go for a noon kick against Minnesota. “It’s gonna be the first noon game or whatever it is in like four weeks, so we’re gonna have to make sure that guys are mentally ready for it and can still get the juice up that we had tonight,” he said. But even with Minnesota on the horizon, Bennett said the win against Michigan State keeps the Buckeyes’ longterm goals in the realm of possibility after the Spartans dashed OSU’s title hopes last year with a 34-24 win in the 2013 Big Ten Championship Game. “Like I said before, it’s not about revenge. It’s about accomplishing what we can accomplish this year,” he said. “And so by having that big win over a really good team, it really just keeps everything alive and starts putting us in the conversation.” That conversation surrounds the College Football Playoff standings, with this season being the first year of the new championship format. Heading into Saturday, the Buckeyes were firmly on the outside looking in with a No. 14 ranking in the CFP poll, but they picked up a win against the Spartans — which are No. 8 in the poll — that few people expected them to have. When the new Associated Press top 25 was released Sunday, OSU was No. 8 while the Spartans fell to No. 12. Sophomore running back Ezekiel Elliott — who picked up 154 rushing yards and a pair of touchdowns in the game — said OSU came in as the underdogs looking to make a national statement. “We had no one behind our back except for Buckeye nation and ourselves,” Elliott said after the game. “We just had to come out and prove to the world that we’re ready.” Meyer called the win “one for the ages,” and added he felt his team showed its worth under the lights at Spartan Stadium. “We played a top-10 team and we really played our best and on the road,” he said. When it comes to his team’s standing in the playoff picture, Meyer said he still doesn’t “know enough,” but made clear his feelings on where the Buckeyes should be. “I think it is,” Meyer — who earned a $330,000 raise after the 2013 season — said as to whether OSU is a playoff-caliber team. “I love my team.”

While the CFP poll will decide who has a shot at a national championship come season’s end — the top four teams earn spots in the playoff — OSU co-offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Ed Warinner said the Buckeyes regained confidence in themselves with the win. “I think we earned back the belief our players have in our program, belief in how we do things at Ohio State, how coach Meyer runs his program,” Warinner said after the game. “We just got our confidence back that we can win a big game, especially on the road.” Barrett agreed with Warinner, and added the win helped to prove the Buckeyes’ doubters wrong. “It really gave us confidence that we could play with the best of them because there was talk that we could only play well against very bad teams,” he said. “This was a very good team in Michigan State, and we came out and played well.” Just like Warinner and Barrett, Bennett said the win gave OSU confidence, but he added that it showed the Buckeyes are the “real deal,” and said it should put them in consideration for a playoff spot moving forward. “It just kind of gives us confidence; it makes other people just kind of turn their heads and start considering Ohio State for the top four,” he said. But while a panel will vote the top four on, the Buckeyes can control their own destiny when it comes to the Big Ten. After sitting in a tie with Michigan State, the win firmly established OSU as tops in the conference for the time being. Senior wide receiver Devin Smith — who Meyer said had his best game in an OSU uniform against the Spartans — said he was “angry” after last year’s loss, coupled with the Buckeyes’ image as underdogs, heading into East Lansing. He said the win showed the conference and the nation what kind of team OSU is. “We came out here and (made) a statement,” Smith said after the game. “And then that shows that we are the best team in the Big Ten, and we try to play like that.” Regardless of the Big Ten standing, or even the Buckeyes’ spot in the CFP poll, Meyer said he simply knows how well his team is playing right now, and added he’ll have to wait and see what that means going forward. “This team right now is playing on a very, very high level,” Meyer said. “I’m not sure what all that means other than we got to get ready to play next week.”

Cole Ledford, a third-year in business real estate, has gained global attention for a Nov. 6 tweet that he wrote after being struck by an individual who witnessed Ledford kissing his boyfriend.

Support from 1A what happened and planned to report the assault to the police the next day. Ledford then took a picture of himself — a portrait of his swollen left eye and cheek in the beginning stages of bruising. He wrote a caption in the notes of his iPhone, reading: “I’m sorry that you called me fag. I’m sorry you hit me for no reason. I’m sorry whatever insecurities you have don’t allow you to accept others for who they are. I’m sorry I threaten you. I’m NOT sorry I’m gay. I’m proud to be this way. I’m proud to be confident enough to love who I love and to love me. I’m proud to have friends and family that love me regardless of me. Honestly, I’m not sorry.” “I didn’t want to have to go about my next day explaining (the assault) to friends,” Ledford said of the photo’s original purpose. “I thought if I posted it (on Twitter), all of Ohio State was here, I could raise a little bit of awareness and I wouldn’t have to explain myself.” Though it was intended for his friends, the tweet from Ledford’s account, @ColeLedford11 — which included his photo and the screenshot of the caption he typed — was retweeted more than 32,000 times and favorited more than 64,000 times on Twitter as of Sunday evening. Multiple international news sources picked up Ledford’s story as well, including the Telegraph and the London Evening Standard in the U.K., and he said he is set to give interviews to media outlets in Singapore, Taiwan, South Africa and Scotland, among others. “Pitch Perfect” actor Skylar Astin also gave him a shoutout via Twitter. Ledford said the “wonderful support” changed his outlook of the assault, and because of that, he did not file a police report of the incident. “It was something that I was really upset about, but it turned into something so positive that it helped me,” he said. “And now I’m seeing that it helps other.

“A young boy in Texas just emailed me and my boyfriend telling us that because of our story, he came out to his parents. So the good that came from this is more than enough.” This is not the first time Ledford has been in the public eye. In 2012, he was featured in multiple episodes of TLC’s “Extreme Couponing,” which follows shoppers as they use coupons to spend a minimal amount of money. Ledford explained the difference between the attention he garnered from the TLC show and the tweet about his assault in terms of Twitter followers. “This is unlike anything compared to (‘Extreme Couponing’),” Ledford said. “I gained 2,000 Twitter followers in less than 24 hours off of (the tweet about the incident). I only had 5,000 in the three years of doing TLC, so this has been unbelievable.” One of the more stunning aspects of Ledford’s assault, Williams said, was that it happened in Columbus. He said he considers the city very LGBTfriendly and strong in the area of LGBT activism. However, Columbus has seen its share of hate crimes against gay men in the past. During a week in June 2013, a string of crimes against gays in and around the city was reported, including an assault near East 5th and Indianola avenues, a beating and robbery in Old Towne East and a beating at East Moler and South 4th streets. “After (Ledford’s assault), I kind of cautiously thought about holding his hand and the repercussions of it because of the event,” Williams said. “Going forward, I decided that I will never censor myself and my affection for him in terms of other people’s opinions. No matter what people think, I’m going to do what makes me comfortable.” Despite some negative feedback from the tweet — which Ledford described as hatred similar to that of his assaulter — Ledford shared Williams’ sentiment. “(Kissing) is going to continue to happen,” Ledford said. “I’m not worried about it.”

Burglars from 1A shut off all our lights, shut our front door and we scope around the area,” Ybanes said. Before long, they spotted a man in all black holding an iPad mini hiding in some bushes near their house. They also saw two other men with Xboxes take off running. Together, they tackled the man in the bushes. “(My housemate) grabbed him and threw him down and we held him, trying to get some answers,” Ybanes said. “It looked like a deer in headlights. He was scared.” Ybanes and his housemates demanded the suspect, later identified as 20-year-old Shay Stuck, call his partner in crime to bring back their stuff. “He called his friend and he was like crying, ‘They’re gonna beat me up. You gotta come back,’” Ybanes said. “We told his friend, ‘You have 10 minutes to bring us our stuff back. We have your number, you’re all going to get in trouble.’” Justin Henderson, a second-year in international business and one of Ybanes’ housemates, said he wasn’t really scared that night. At that point, Henderson said he was just on the hunt for the people who’d wronged him. “We were just trying to get s--- done. We were taking care of business,” Henderson said. “We just wanted our s--- back.” The stolen items — which included a laptop, iPad mini, phone and longboards, estimated by Ybanes to be worth more than $2,000 total — were not all returned that night, but Ybanes said police have since found the house where the suspects were keeping all their items. Ybanes said they should be getting their things back this week. Henderson said the burglars had come in through their back door, which two of their friends had left unlocked when they went home earlier that night. Officers arrived on scene after several neighbors called the police to report a disturbance because of all the racket the men were making while tackling and talking to Stuck.

Mirror Lake from 1A

Before being drained, the lake was filled with city water, costing OSU nearly $46,000 per year, Administration and Planning spokeswoman Alison Hinkle said in August. OSU refilled the campus landmark in August with water from a recently-dug well that cost an additional $30,000, Hinkle said. The water was transferred from the well to Mirror Lake via a temporary pump and hose. It was originally unknown whether that pump and hose would be the final measure taken to keep Mirror Lake filled in time for the jump. Gravel was poured into Mirror Lake in May to reduce its overall depth to 5 feet as part of an interim measure toward making the lake more sustainable. Some people decided to jump into the lake Sunday at about 12:30 a.m. following OSU’s 49-37 victory over Michigan State on Saturday night. Witnesses to the event estimated that about 50 people took

When the police arrived, they found 18-yearold Preston Wilbur and later 19-year-old Ashley Martin in a nearby car who they determined were both also a part of the burglary. The cops popped open the trunk of the car and found even more stolen goods — some of which didn’t belong to the men of East 16th Avenue. That helped tip officers off to the fact that this wasn’t a one-time incident. “The next thing we know is we’ve got at least one burglary, which multiplied up to at least six,” said Columbus Division of Police Commander Christopher Bowling. “We started realizing how many more they had done.” Bowling said a total of four people were involved in the plot, and police think they’re responsible for at least five other burglaries in the off-campus area, the majority of which occurred between East 12th and East 16th avenues. One of the connected burglaries was reported to have occurred on North 4th Street. Wilbur and Stuck were both arrested and charged with one count of burglary that night. Both cases were dismissed in Franklin County Municipal Court and both were listed as closed as of Sunday afternoon, according to a FCMC website search. Wilbur, however, also has an open case listed on the FCMC website for one count of burglary. That case’s address is listed as 420 E. 13th Ave. — another address listed on Columbus Police’s release of burglary locations. Another of the burglary-suspects-in-question is a juvenile and faces six counts of burglary charges, three counts of felony theft and one count of misdemeanor theft, according to a CPD press release. The Lantern is not releasing his name because of his age. When Ybanes and his housemates ventured to take down the suspects that night, they had no idea they were taking down a ring of bandits who police say are responsible for a string of burglaries, but Ybanes said it only makes their actions that much sweeter. “We were like, ‘We’re the new neighborhood honchos around here,’” Ybanes said. “People can sleep safe with us when we’re on duty.”

to the lake. Rumors on social media that a car2go was also in the water turned out to be false. University Police and Columbus Division of Police each said they were unaware of the matter at about 2:30 a.m. Sunday. University Police Chief Paul Denton did not return requests for comment on the situation as of Sunday. The 2013 jump created controversy after fences were erected surrounding the lake for safety purposes. Students attending the tradition were required to wear a wristband to enter. Some people protested the efforts and took to social media to plan a separate jump the night before the actual one was supposed to happen. About 1,500 people followed through and knocked down the fences to enter the lake the night before the scheduled jump. In March, an open house and visual preference survey provided students, faculty, staff and alumni the opportunity to weigh in on design concepts for Mirror Lake. Landscape architecture firm MKSK is working with OSU to help design the updated Mirror Lake. Mirror Lake became a campus fixture 140 years ago after beginning as a small stream.

opinion F-Bombs for Feminism video raises awareness in a wrong way AUBREY CORNWELL Lantern reporter cornwell.68@osu.edu F-Bombs For Feminism by clothing company FCKH8 — a video of little girls in princess costumes yelling profane words and talking about equal pay, rape and physical appearance to spread word about gender equality — has been the recent hype on Facebook. Many people are empowered by this video. They think that it is sending a great message — people care more about little girls swearing than they do about the female race being treated unequally in society. However, there’s never a time when it is acceptable for little girls to be swearing. I understand that they’re trying to prove it will upset viewers, but these girls are young and should not be exposed to such inappropriate language. Take into consideration other organizations like United Nations Women. UN Women is a global campaign for gender equality that goes about spreading awareness in a more mature and appropriate manner. For example, Nicole Kidman is a UN Women Goodwill Ambassador, and the group has launched advisory groups in several countries to spread the word. FCKH8 also has these young girls talking about rape. Rape is a sensitive yet important topic to be informed on, regardless of age, gender or culture. It’s a daunting concept that people ought to be aware of, but young girls who don’t understand what sex is shouldn’t be the ones expected to spread the facts. The organization Equality Now has a campaign that you might be familiar with, #BringBackOurGirls, which takes action trying to bring back the Chibok, Borno State, Nigeria, school girls who were abducted.

Rather than having videos of girls yelling about rape, the organization has made global protests and campaigns and has had people around the world spreading the word and awareness — an effective technique seeing as many people know what #BringBackOurGirls is about. And lastly, if you feel strongly about gender equality and want to make a donation, you should be aware that FCKH8 is a for-profit T-shirt company. This video that exploits these young girls is being used more as a commercial means to sell their product. This being said, the T-shirt that you purchase through their website benefits their company and production. You’re not donating to the cause or helping the issue of gender equality. It’s essentially a for-profit organization with a nonprofit message. The video says, though, that $5 from each shirt goes toward charities that fight for equal rights Do you want to wear your beliefs of sexism on your shirt? Check out the apparel offered through fully nonprofit organizations, ones that even had the slogans on their shirts before FCKH8 came around. You can voice your opinion and donate to the cause by purchasing through companies like Feminist Apparel and Feminist Majority Foundation. By no means am I against gender equality, and I think that should be made clear. I fully support organizations like UN Women and Equality Now that are looking to make changes around to make our world a safe living environment for the female race. However, I don’t support young girls swearing and talking about rape freely. And I don’t support making these children discuss such topics to not necessarily prove a point and promote gender equality, but to sell a T-shirt so a company can make money.

BOOK REVIEW

Lena Dunham’s essays relatable to all kinds of girls HANNAH HERNER Lantern reporter herner.12@osu.edu

Mail media

Scroll through Instagram, and you’ll probably see at least one celebrity post of a book with a white cover with pink and black block lettering sitting next to a fancy mug of tea. To be honest, that is the exact reason why I bought “Not That Kind of Girl” by Lena Dunham. If it was good enough for Tavi Gevinson, Sarah Jessica Parker and other admirable women, then it was good enough for me. The book is a collection of (very) personal essays written by Dunham, organized into five sections: Love & Sex, Body, Friendship, Work and Big Picture. I had heard of Dunham before and her show, “Girls,” which is widely loved and respected, albeit

Alumni document the creation of postal art MEGAN BUSKIRK Lantern reporter buskirk.29@osu.edu While many are unaware of the existence of mail art, two Ohio State alumni decided to dedicate the beginning of their post-graduation lives to creating a documentary based on the medium. Mail art, also known as postal art, refers to “small-scale works that utilize the mail as a distribution system,” according to the Museum of Contemporary Art’s website. The populist movement subverts traditional art dissemination through ornamentation of envelopes and other found objects. OSU graduates Michael Polk and Seth Radley began production on a documentary of mail art in January 2013. The film, titled “Making Mail,” was released Sunday on their website and via YouTube. The documentary follows the story of young artists who use mail to share their work around the world. “With just an envelope and whatever else can fit inside as their medium, these incredibly talented people create original and breathtaking pieces of art,” the project’s Kickstarter webpage said. As described in the film, mail art can take on many forms — ranging from a decorated soup can to a card full of old magazine cutouts and carefully crafted hand-lettering. It’s a practice that makes mail more thoughtful and personable, director and producer Polk said. Originally, “Making Mail” was one of Polk’s last class assignments before his December 2012 graduation, he said. Polk, who now works for OSU’s film studies program, showed his film to a video production class he was in with Radley, the film’s editor and producer. “From there, I showed interest and started getting involved,” said Radley, who also now works at Ohio State’s e-learning and distance learning office after graduating in May 2013. Polk said the new film, which expands on the original demo, is merely a conduit to share the art others are making. “It’s just a matter of artists making beautiful work,” Polk said about the documentary. “I had the ability to (produce the film) because I was surrounded by creative people.” “The goal of the film is to share this art form that not many people know about,” he added. Director of photography and assistant editor Alexa Sison had a history with making mail art, and still exchanges mail with one

All pieces are featured in OSU grads’ documentary ‘Making Mail,’ which can be viewed on Michael Polk and Seth Radley’s website or YouTube. Courtesy of Michael Polk

of the film’s interviewees, mail artist Amber Esner. “Mail art encourages me to keep pushing my work,” Sison said. “It gives me a different connection with people.” Through Kickstarter, a crowd-funding website for creative projects, the team received nearly four times its $1,000 goal for the film in just two days, Polk said. However, like many films, “Making Mail” has received some negative feedback. “We got one thumbs down on the trailer, which made me so happy, actually,” Polk laughed. “It feels so much more real.” Besides that triviality, the two men got serious scrutiny when they showed a rough copy to their colleagues during the filming process. “It wasn’t very good,” Radley said. “But the

thing about going to Ohio State is it’s so nice to have so many resources available to you. A lot of the people who helped us were affiliated somehow with Ohio State, and that was a great benefit.” Polk and Radley stressed the importance of negative feedback for their creative project. “The spirit of the film was the same, but the execution changed a lot,” Polk said. “And that was all because of people giving honest feedback that had to be negative — which is perfectly fine.” As for aspiring artists, a collaborative effort is crucial, Radley said. “Exhaust all avenues to find out how to do what you want to do,” he said. “Meet people whose work you like. Connect with other artists. They’ll help you, you’ll help them, and then you’ll both make each other better.”

controversial. I’ve watched a few episodes, and I can tell you that if you’re a fan of the show, you will undoubtedly be a fan of this book. Both address topics that can be uncomfortable, often involving sexuality, but are topics that shouldn’t be ignored. While not best known for being a comedian, Dunham still infuses her witty sense of humor into her book. One of the funniest chapters is “Emails I Would Send if I Were One Ounce Crazier/ Angrier/Braver,” in which she writes outspoken emails to all of the people who did her wrong, including ex-boyfriends and ex-friends. My only regret is that this chapter isn’t longer. An added bonus for Ohio readers is that Lena Dunham went to Oberlin College in northern Ohio. Having been on the campus before, it was fun to read about her experiences there. The stories are quite entertaining, as the culture on the Oberlin campus is known to be a little eccentric. My favorite chapter of the book is “This is supposed to be fun?” about making the most of your education. In this chapter, she talks about school experiences from elementary through college. I especially like an excerpt where she describes the rejection she felt from the head of the English department at Oberlin College. Knowing that even Lena Dunham was told her writing wasn’t good enough at one point gives hope to all aspiring writers. REVIEW CONTINUES AT:

OPINION

New Toy Story installment will be different, won’t disenchant CHAHINAZ SEGHIRI Senior Lantern reporter seghiri.1@osu.edu Set for release in June 2017, Pixar ’s “Toy Story 4” will definitely be another classic that will not disappoint fans. The first “Toy Story” defined a part of my own experiences as a 6-year-old girl. I related to Andy, and I secretly wished my toys would come to life because of my captivation with Buzz Lightyear and Sheriff Woody after the watching the first movie. Throughout the years that followed, “Toy Story” still was a movie that I could always watch regardless of my age, and when I found out about the fourth movie, I was completely thrilled. The “Toy Story” series became a part of

Monday November 10, 2014

my identity because the movie taught me to respect my toys more than anything else. Remember that scene in “Toy Story 2” when Jessie the cowgirl was abandoned by her owner, and left for donation? That scene was memorable and left a mark on me emotionally. I realized how important toys could be — and I felt guilty for how I treated my Barbies, which I sometimes decapitated when I wasn’t cutting their hair. It sounds dramatic, but there is no other Disney movie that almost makes you feel like the characters are a old, long friend that will always be a special part of your life. So the obvious opposition for having an additional movie would be that the further the series prolongs, the more the movies potentially risk losing their identity as Disney Pixar’s classic. The obvious rebuttal: so long as there are

children who want to buy and play with toys, the “Toy Story” series will never lose its identity. I will be confident enough to say that just as our lives change and grow, that is exactly what the “Toy Story” series does and will continue to do. We cannot compare the series to the many Disney movies that have been ruined by sequels, such as “Lilo & Stitch” or even “Mulan.” Pixar has proven that its teams always bring hard work and exceptional quality plots to its movies, which allow them to be well-made films. The Toy Story series also stands as a classic because of actors such as Tom Hanks and Tim Allen. There would not be these iconic friendships that we have all grown to love without them, and so long as they stand behind

Woody and Buzz Lightyear, the series will continue to thrive. Some might say the series should not continue because Andy has grown and left to college. Andy, however, was not what made the movies special, rather, the dedication of the toys to their owner was what defined the movie. The fourth installment, of course, will not be the same with Bonnie presumably as the new owner of the toys. Different does not mean it will disappoint, however.

Buckeye wideouts cleared to fly JAMES GREGA, JR. Asst. sports editor grega.9@osu.edu

Just seconds after Michigan State missed a 39-yard field goal, Ohio State took over possession and wide receiver Michael Thomas was sure of one thing. He was going to be in the end zone. “Before the play came I knew I was going to score,” the redshirt-sophomore Thomas said. “I just had to do my job, run my route. I feel like no one can guard me.” Thomas caught a slant from redshirt-freshman J.T. Barrett and took the pass 79 yards to the end zone, tying the game at 21. The Buckeyes didn’t trail for the remainder of the game. Just minutes later, Barrett found senior wide receiver Devin Smith for a 44-yard touchdown, giving the Buckeyes a 28-21 halftime score. Barrett, who had seemed to struggle on deep throws for a portion of the season, said after the game that he is getting more confidence in his deep shots as the season progresses. “I’m getting more comfortable each and every week,” he said. “We just make sure we’re getting that

connection in practice so we can bring it out on gameday.” Barrett’s performance earned praise from Michigan State’s defensive coordinator Pat Narduzzi, who said he was slightly surprised at how well the redshirt-freshman played. “That guy made about every pass he could. He hadn’t shown to do that really consistently, but we had a lot of respect for him.

He is a great football player,” Narduzzi said after the game. “He played big in a big game. He didn’t throw off the mark at all and those guys were ready to make the catch. That goes to having a guy who throws the ball where it needs to be thrown. He is a heck of a quarterback.” OSU coach Urban Meyer tied Barrett’s performance in with Smith’s, complimenting both on their breakout games. “JT, boy, is he playing well. He was 16-of26, 300 yards throwing and very accurate on the deep balls,” Meyer said. “Also Devin Smith, that’s his best game that we’ve had in the past three years. He’s one of the best, if not the best, deep ball players we’ve ever had. He tracks the ball very well.” Smith has had a knack for making big plays in scarlet and gray, as the Buckeyes are a perfect 20-0 when he catches a touchdown for OSU. The senior from Massillon, Ohio, finished the game with a season-high 129 yards receiving on six receptions to go along with the touchdown. Prior to his touchdown catch, Smith made what was

arguably the biggest play of the game as he hauled in a 43-yard reception from Barrett up the Spartan sideline with OSU facing a third and 23, trailing, 14-7. Smith had a similar response to Thomas’ about the third-down pickup. “No disrespect to their team, but I felt all night they couldn’t hang with us. I told coach that constantly,” Smith said. “I told coach they needed to keep throwing it to us, and we had a good first half throwing the ball.” With his big game, Smith separated himself from former OSU-great Santonio Holmes on the Buckeyes’ all-time touchdown receptions list. Smith moved into sole possession of third place on the list with his 26th as a member of the Scarlet and Gray. Smith said following the game that his motivation to play well came from many people picking the Spartans to win, along with Michigan State’s nicknamed secondary. “Coming into this game, everybody had us losing and it kind of made me a little mad,”

5 takeaways from B1G win vs. MSU Freshman duo sparks OSU basketball

JAMES GREGA, JR. AND TIM MOODY Asst. sports editor and Sports editor grega.9@osu.edu and moody.178@osu.edu Playing as the underdogs in search of its first win against a top-10 team since Urban Meyer arrived in Columbus in 2012, Ohio State topped then-No. 7 Michigan State, 49-37, on the road. The win was marked a statement game for the Buckeyes, and a potential turning point when it comes to their standing in the national landscape. After the victory, The Lantern sports editors picked five of the most important takeaways as OSU turns its attention to Minnesota next weekend. 1. OSU was the better team at Spartan Stadium Even when the Spartans held a 21-14 lead in the first half, the Buckeyes were playing the better game overall. If not for a plethora of early miscues and fumbles, OSU’s halftime advantage could have easily been better than its 28-21 lead. But then again, because of those miscues, OSU could have easily been in a big hole instead of being ahead. Regardless of the final numbers — which ended up being similar for both teams — the Buckeyes simply outplayed Michigan State. They only punted twice — once late in the fourth quarter — and could have easily eclipsed the 50-point mark if not for a missed field goal on the game’s opening drive. OSU might have been the underdog on paper, but it would be hard to pick against the Buckeyes if the two teams had to play again. 2. Redshirt-freshman quarterback J.T. Barrett proved himself Barrett has been putting up ridiculous numbers all season — except in the biggest moments. His two worst performances of the year came during a loss to Virginia Tech in which he threw three interceptions and a near-loss to Penn State when he had less than 80 yards through the air. Numbers aside, the knock on him has been that he didn’t step up when it mattered most. On Saturday, Barrett did more than step up, as he threw for 300 yards and ran for another 86 while accounting for five of OSU’s seven total touchdowns. His third-and-23 over-the-shoulder pass to senior wide receiver Devin Smith was easily the best toss of his young collegiate career, and one of the best throws in recent OSU memory. He also managed to hit Smith for a 44-yard touchdown and found redshirt-sophomore wide receiver Michael Thomas on a 79-yard catch-and-run for another score. Barrett capped his big day with a seven-yard touchdown pass to sophomore H-back Dontre Wilson in the fourth quarter on third down with another throw that could be considered NFL caliber.

Redshirt-freshman quarterback J.T. Barrett (16) carries the ball during OSU’s 49-37 win against Michigan State on Nov. 8 in East Lansing, Mich. If injured senior quarterback Braxton Miller returns next season, coach Urban Meyer will have a very difficult decision on his hands come fall camp. 3. The Buckeyes’ defense has flaws, but stepped up when it mattered OSU gave up 536 total yards to the Spartans — including 137 rushing yards to redshirt-senior running back Jeremy Langford — but overall, it played well on defense. You can look at the final numbers and say they’re bad, but the Buckeyes stepped up at key moments, perhaps none more than after a Wilson fumble on a second-quarter kickoff. The fumble gave the Spartans the ball in the red zone, and not only did OSU make a defensive stand and force a field goal, but Michigan State missed the kick to keep the Buckeyes within one score. If the Spartans had found the end zone, which it looked like they probably

Less than a week before its season opener, the No. 20 Ohio State men’s basketball team dispatched Walsh University, 77-37, behind the play of a pair of freshmen. Freshman guard D’Angelo Russell led the Buckeyes with a game-high 17 points while freshman forward Jae’Sean Tate added 10 points in the Sunday evening exhibition at the Schottenstein Center. Tate said making his first appearance in front of the Columbus crowd was something he’s dreamed of as a Pickerington, Ohio, native. “I’m from here, this was a dream come true,” he said after the game. “This was a good first game to get all the butterflies out and we are just ready to go and get this season rolling.” Russell and Tate each tallied eight rebounds, while Russell had six assists. OSU coach Thad Matta said Russell has shown throughout preseason practice that he has the ability to make an impact in a variety of ways. “That’s kinda what he’s done to this point,” Matta said after the game. “I think that he’s got a different pace about him, he sees things like a lot of freshmen don’t see them. And that’s good.” Russell said he came to OSU with a chip on his shoulder, and added he’s prepared to do anything the Buckeyes’ coaching staff asks of him this season.

For the second time in five days, the Ohio State men’s soccer team bested its rival, this time to keep its season alive. OSU (9-6-4, 5-3-0) returned home to defeat Michigan (6-9-3, 3-3-2) in the quarterfinal round of the Big Ten tournament, 1-0, on Sunday. The victory came less than a week after the Buckeyes beat Michigan, 2-1, in Ann Arbor, Mich., to close the regular season. “I think we were just all really focused and really hungry to defend our home turf, and beat Michigan again twice in five days, obviously that was a really difficult task, but we embraced it and we ran with that,” redshirt-senior goalkeeper Alex Ivanov added.

For the second consecutive game against the Wolverines, it was sophomore forward Danny Jensen who opened the scoring in the first half. The sophomore directed a header in front of the box off a high feed from senior midfielder Max Moller and deposited it into the corner of the net. “We knew exactly what they had, on the counter that they know exactly what we had,” Jensen said. The goal was Jensen’s fifth of the year, including his fourth in OSU’s last five games. However, Jensen said he is not the one responsible for the recent success. “My teammates are putting me in the right positions,” he said. “I’m not really doing too much. I just have to be in the right positions by moving a few yards, and they’re putting the ball on my head, on my foot.” Michigan appeared to tie the game with a header that got past Ivanov late in the

first half, but the equalizer was waved off because of an offsides call. As a result, the first half came to a close with the Buckeyes holding a 1-0 lead. Michigan led in shots at the half, however, 5-3. But OSU turned that trend around to begin the latter half. In the first 30 minutes of the second half, the Buckeyes only allowed Michigan to get two shots off as they played a defensive, conservative style. “It was crucial that we kept focus and maintained our lead, and I think everyone just did really well to stay on the same page,” Ivanov said. Despite Michigan’s desperate search for the equalizer, the Buckeyes’ defense held strong, controlling possession for much of the

sports 5 takeaways from 7A would, they’d have taken a 28-14 lead and the game could have ended very differently. Oh, and Barrett hit Thomas for that 79-yard touchdown on the first play of the ensuing drive, making it 21-21. Numbers aside, the Buckeye defense proved itself at Spartan Stadium. 4. Senior defensive lineman Michael Bennett can dominate After sophomore defensive lineman Joey Bosa had asserted his dominance throughout the season to the tune of a Big

Ten-best 10 sacks, Bennett found his name mentioned less and less. But on Saturday, the Spartans’ game planned well for Bosa, forcing Bennett to step up. Not only did he finish the game with four solo tackles — including two for a loss — and the Buckeyes’ only sack, but he controlled the line of scrimmage and won his one-on-one battles nearly every snap. Bennett has been a good player throughout his career, but he admitted after the game that he was playing too cautiously earlier this season.

He came out of his shell against Michigan State, and proved once again why he will likely be an early round pick in the 2015 NFL Draft. 5. Smith is a game changer Twenty times, Smith has caught at least one touchdown in a game as a Buckeye, and all 20 times, OSU has come away victorious. The Massillon, Ohio, product produced a seasonhigh 129 yards on six receptions and a 44-yard score against the Spartans on Saturday night, leading the OSU

offense along with Barrett to an impressive win. The touchdown reception puts him third all-time on the OSU receptions list with 26, placing him behind just David Boston and Cris Carter. After the win over Michigan State, Meyer said Smith’s game was his best as a Buckeye and added that Smith is one of, if not the best deep-threat player he has ever coached. The Buckeyes are scheduled to return to play against the Minnesota Golden Gophers on Saturday in Minneapolis. Kickoff is set for noon.

Smith said. “Then the whole ‘no fly zone’ stuff and all that. We had one job, and that was to come up here and win.” The combination of Smith and Thomas accounted for 220 of Barrett’s 300 passing yards, something Thomas said came from preparation and motivation. “It’s like a tag-team. That’s what we are trained to do,” Thomas said of his play alongside Smith’s. “We lost a lot of respect. And the only way to get back respect in this league, the Big Ten, is to step up and win this game.” With the win, the Buckeyes sit alone atop the Big Ten East standings, as they are set to take on the Minnesota Golden Gophers on Saturday in Minneapolis. Kickoff is scheduled for noon.

Basketball from 7A “Whatever coach needs me to do, I am going to do it,” he said after the game. “If he needs me to score, I’m gonna score. If he needs me to get everybody going, I am going to do it. Rebound, defend, I am going to do it.” Matta added that Tate can play bigger than his 6-foot, 4-inch frame would suggest. “Jae’Sean Tate plays big for his size, there’s no doubt about that,” he said. Senior forward Sam Thompson chipped in with 13 points in just 20 minutes of action. Russell and Tate were among five new faces for OSU coach Thad Matta, as three true freshmen, one redshirt-freshman and a redshirt-senior transfer took the floor for the Buckeyes. Russell started the game while Tate, freshman forward Keita Bates-Diop, redshirt-freshman guard Kam Williams and Temple transfer forward Anthony Lee came off the bench. “It’s good for these guys to get through that,” Matta said of the young Buckeyes making their debuts. “I think from the standpoint of first time they’ve ever worn the jersey, I think they’ll be at a little bit more at ease as we move forward.” Because of an offensive rebound from senior center Amir Williams, OSU had two chances to score on its first possession of the game, but Thompson and senior guard Shannon Scott each missed three-pointers. From there, the Buckeyes shot seven of 13 from beyond the arc and added a buzzer-beating tip in by Tate to close out the first half with a 48-19 lead. Russell — a Louisville, Ky., native — finished the opening 20 minutes with 16 points on four-of-five shooting from three-point range. Through the first 10:11 of the second half, OSU opened up a 38-point advantage before closing out the game. But despite the 40-point win, Matta said the OSU offense could have run with a higher tempo at points in the second half. “I thought for the most part, that was the biggest thing,” he said. “We just stopped. We became very stagnant offensively there in the second half.” Behind Russell and Thompson, sophomore forward Marc Loving added 12 points and seven rebounds for OSU. Scott tied Russell for the game-high with six assists, while Thompson added three

The 10 players to see the floor for the Buckeyes scored at least two points each. Tate said any player on the roster can make an impact offensively in any given game. “We just try to share the ball and get the win,” he said. “I think the team as a whole will carry the offense.” Junior guard Jesse Hardin Jr. had 10 points to lead Walsh. Sophomore center Trevor Thompson, senior forward Jake Lorbach and freshman center David Bell were the only players listed on the Buckeyes’ roster not to appear in the exhibition. Thompson has to sit out the season per NCAA transfer rules after coming to OSU from Virginia Tech. Lorbach is a senior walk on while Matta said Bell will likely redshirt this season. Neither Thompson nor Lorbach dressed for the game. OSU’s regular-season schedule is set to begin Friday against the University of Massachusetts-Lowell at the Schottenstein Center. Tip is scheduled for 7 p.m. “It’s the season now, practice this week, play a game,” Matta said. “It’s on us.”

second half and holding Michigan to only one shot on goal. “It was a great shutout today more than anything,” OSU coach John Bluem said. “We talked about at halftime, if we defended well, then we’ve already got the game won. If you don’t let them score, we won the game already, and I think that mindset helped.” It was the second-consecutive chippy game between the rivals. After 20 fouls were whistled in Wednesday’s contest, 37 were assessed Sunday – including two yellow cards in the final minute. “It’s an important game, they’re fighting for their season, we’re fighting for their season. It’s a rivalry, too,” Ivanov said about the number of fouls. “It’s always tough playing against Michigan, it’s pretty physical and demanding on the body.” Ivanov’s shutout was his seventh of the season and 15th of his collegiate career. Shortly after the game, Indiana defeated Northwestern in a penalty kick shootout to advance to the semifinals to meet the Buckeyes. OSU fell to Indiana on Oct. 12, 2-1. In College Park, Md., No. 1-seeded Maryland defeated Rutgers, 2-0, to earn the right to host the semifinals and championship as the highest remaining seed. Of the three other teams remaining in the tournament, OSU is 1-2-0 this season, allowing a combined five goals. However, Jensen said it would not be easy for future opponents to score many goals against the late-season iteration of the OSU defense. “Any team that is going to have to beat us, they’re going to have to score some great goals or we’re going to have to get unlucky, because we’re playing really well right now,” he said. OSU is set to travel to College Park, Md., to take on sixth-seeded Indiana in the semifinals Friday. That game is scheduled to kick off at 3:40 p.m.
