OSU Professor Daniel Rivers, who studies Native American history, speaks during the “Stand With Standing Rock” solidarity rally on Nov. 16. YINI LIU Lantern reporter liu.4194@osu.edu About 50 people rallied on the Oval Wednesday afternoon to protest the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline, a 1,177mile construction set to transport oil from North Dakota, through South Dakota and Iowa, to markets in Illinois. This protest — held by local civic group Socialist Students Columbus — kicked off with speeches addressing the potential environmental issues brought by the pipeline. Protesters fear that its proximity to the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation will contaminate drinking water and sacred sites for indigenous nations. “This issue might seem like it’s far away, it’s all the way in North Dakota,” said Dana White, an OSU graduate student from the College of Social Work who attended the event. “But it is important for us to stand in solidarity with the tribes who are at Standing Rock fighting for the land, and for the water and for the tribal rights.” Mia Zerkle, a first-year in biochemistry and political science and one of the organizers of the protest, said this activity aims to pressure the U.S. Bank, which has a branch in the Ohio Union, to remove its investment on the construction and bring the issue to students’ attention. “We want to bring the issue to light,” Zerkle said. “There are still plenty of people on this university’s campus who either don’t

know what the pipeline is, or don’t realize that the effects of it on the people around it are so detrimental.” This protest is among a series of protests in 300 cities after the pipeline project was made public in July 2014. The move to send Ohio State troopers to assist North Dakota authorities with handling protesters recently drew the ire of some citizens and elected officials in the Buckeye State, including protesters who took to the streets downtown on Tuesday. The troopers returned to Ohio on Wednesday, unrelated to local protests. “(The pipeline) is harming the people, the Standing Rock Sioux tribe.” Zerkle said. “They are human beings just like us.” The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers — one of the government agency involved in the construction — has said that the pipeline won’t go through any reservation and will operate at a distance that there won’t be any direct or indiPIPELINE CONTINUES ON 2

JACOB MYERS Assistant Sports Editor myers.1669@osu.edu Tell me if you heard this before. The Ohio State Buckeyes and the Michigan State Spartans do battle with one hoping to continue its push towards a national championship. This seems to be the theme when OSU coach Urban Meyer meets Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio late in the season. Despite Sparty’s 3-7 overall and 1-6 Big Ten record, the motif of win-or-go-home motivates the No. 2 Buckeyes in the heart of the College Football Playoff discus-

For the past three years, the winner of the Big Ten battle has altered college football’s national landscape. In 2015, one celebratory windmill at a time, Michigan State then-junior kicker Michael Geiger triggered tears in the eyes of OSU fans after hitting the game-winning field goal as time expired.

In 2014, the toxic algae level in Lake Erie reached a record high, leaving more than 400,000 people in Toledo with unsafe tap water. This algae issue is triggered by excessive fertilizers that are washed off into rivers. In an attempt to solve this issue, Ohio State researchers turned to their smartphones. Researchers recently created an

It’s designed to improve farmers’ management operations by instructing them how much fertilizer, water, shade and pesticide to use on their land, and where to use them, with the goal of decreasing runoff. “Our goal was to take the app, and make it a tool to help farmers at least be thoughtful of what they are doing on their farms as a way to just be better stewards of the land,” said Kaylee Port, project coordinator in the Department of Food, Agriculture and Biological Engineering who worked on the app. Although there are many apps to

Hundreds of different color-coded push pins cover the map, marking every continent except Antarctica. Each pin represents a different conference he’s attended, the schools of graduate students he’s worked with and the locations where he has sent collections of donated books. For the past four decades, Ockerman has sent a what he estimates to be $866 million in books to schools and universities in the United States and abroad through his program, the Frances J. Ockerman Book Endowment. Ockerman said he was inspired to begin the book program after attending an agriculture conference in Brazil in 1974 and visiting an elementary school nearby. “I asked the teacher at break, ‘Where were the books?’ And she said they didn’t have any books,” Ockerman said. “I said, ‘Where’s the teacher’s book?’ and she didn’t have one.

the world can you teach without books?” Ockerman visits three Half Price Books locations each day and scours the shelves for books one would find in major university libraries — on topics such as nursing, agriculture, math and law, as well as encyclopedias, how-to books and famous novels. Chris Heuing, district manager for Half Price Books, said working with Ockerman on his book program has been “an honor.” “It feels wonderful to be able to pay back to the world like this,” Heuing said. “We do a lot of things to donate locally, but to know that Dr. Ockerman is going out and going to all of these exotic places, it’s incredible. It’s incredible to know we get to play a small part in that.” Ockerman’s program also accepts donated textbooks from Half Price Books, retired university professors, people downsizing their living spaces and from public libraries. Ockerman said the program helps upcycle books destined for second-hand stores or landfills. “If the professor changes the book in a course — the book that costs $150 to $200 — we can hardly give them away,” Ockerman said. “They’re perfectly good sustainability. “(The pipeline is) reinforcing our reliance on energy that is not necessarily the best for the environment,” Zerkle said.

and save money with data, said Sam Custer, a researcher in OSU Extension. “I think it will continue to be used by more and more researchers, more and more farmers to make those good research-based decisions,” Custer said. The app has a random number generator to organize the layout of plots, which are sections in a field, in an attempt to remove the human error of dividing fields. After plots are numbered, the app creates on-farm trials to help farmers test treatments and select the best one for different fields. Once the trials are created, farmers can use the app to record their treatments throughout the growing season. The data gathered includes fertilizers and pesticides they use, seeding populations, planting spacing and depth and insect and disease issues. “What’s really nice is, if you are

using your app, it kind of helps cut back on the amount of time because you can more centrally focus your efforts on certain areas of the field,” Port said. After the harvest, the app produces a summary report that statistically analyzes all the data. The report enables growers to compare the treatments and yields. Because the app’s design is simple, users can analyze their fields without being statisticians, Port said. “Anybody that wants to grow something, in theory, could use this app,” Port said.

Some of them haven’t even been opened … they’re just going to waste, so why not?” But while the program accepts book donations, Ockerman said he refuses any monetary donations, paying for all of the program’s expenses out of pocket. Ockerman said he spends four hours a night cleaning the books of Post-it notes and markings and taking a rough inventory of his finds, logging the prices in an ongoing document. The spreadsheet lists when, where and how many books were sent. Ockerman said he only started recording the value of his books 10 years after he began the project, because he didn’t

think it would last. Ockerman spends his Saturdays packing the books for shipment, filling boxes and loading them into a cargo carrier with the help of volunteers. “If you get good help, and I’ve been fortunate to have gotten good help, then you can get through it,” Ockerman said. “People will commit to you for a Saturday, if there isn’t a football game.” His first individual book shipment was sent to Taiwan in 1984. Since then, Ockerman has sent 36,000 books to more than 400 locations, including Australia, China, Turkey, Poland, Egypt and Canada. Ockerman also has three

libraries named in honor of him — two in the Philippines and one in Atlanta. Ockerman named the endowment program after his late wife, Frances, who he said was a major inspiration to his international endeavors. “I was a provincial Kentucky boy before I met her and she told me I needed to see the world,” Ockerman said. “She was usually right, so I listened to her.” Ockerman said the program will continue as long as people will accept his books, and that he enjoys being able to help fill a need through his donations. “I can’t solve a lot of the world’s problems, but I can help with this,” he said.

Higher Education Works,” the analysis shows students who graduate college will earn more money, over their lifetime, than those who do not. “College is worth the investment,” said Matthew Mayhew, professor at Ohio State’s College of Education and Human Ecology, and co-author of the book. “Regardless of how you’re going to college, by way of your financial resources, you will have an economic return that’s pretty substantial.” From 2000 to 2013, Americans with a four-year college education received a 12 to 14 percent rate of return on their investment, according to the book. Gregory C. Wolniak, co-author and an associate clinical professor at New York University, said the rate of return is the percentage of gains one receives on an investment that are over the investment’s cost. In terms of a college degree, the rate of return represents one’s lifetime earnings minus the costs incurred while attending college, Wolniak said. To achieve a higher rate of return on a college degree, several factors matter, such as field of study and GPA. “Securing a job in the same field as your college major also has a big impact on your earnings,” Wolniak said. “And indeed, getting good grades matters too — for every one point higher GPA you achieve appears, on average, to be associated with 5 to 6 per-

Don’t give Donald Trump a chance

JUDY WON | FOR THE LANTERN

Then-Republican nominee Donald Trump speaks to supporters at a private rally in Columbus on Oct. 13.

On Nov. 15, a letter to the editor appeared in The Lantern titled “Give President Donald Trump a chance,” alongside a second letter to the editor about white supremacist posters appearing in Hagerty Hall. If it’s not clear to you what’s wrong with this picture, it’s clear to me that you’re not looking hard enough. Donald J. Trump has run a campaign founded on ethnic resentment and false promises, which you will probably be familiar with if “The Wall,” “Muslim ban,” or “national Muslim database” ring any bells. He has advocated racist “stop-and-frisk” policies, and has claimed that authoritarian “law and order” is the sole solution to inner-city crime. He has fueled hatred against racial and religious minorities and legitimized sexual assault against women. He has been elected on the blessing of Vladimir Putin and the Russian government, which have launched cyberattacks against the Clinton campaign to his benefit. He is the least qualified person ever to be elected to the presidency, having no experience in politics, the military or any realm of public service. This does not make him an “outsider.” This makes him untested, probably incompetent and potentially dangerous. It should be clear that Trump is an unabashed demagogue, that he appeals to the

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Good news: Almost 50 years ago, President Lyndon B. Johnson was fighting to make 2016 better than it has been. Johnson was stumping for the Public Broadcasting Act, designed to fund independent journalism to cover vital yet unprofitable topics. After budget cuts, the act passed as a pale version of its former self. Fast-forward to today and witness three out of every five Americans distrustful of the mainstream media, an alltime low. Johnson’s idea of an “American BBC” is perhaps even more relevant today than it was in the 1960s. The United States federal government needs to substantially increase its funding of public broadcasting. There is a clear demand for a robust, independent press — publicly funded, but free of government interference. This journalism is not confined to Johnson’s vision of a television network, but expanded to any medium that promotes the Jeffersonian ideal that liberty is “a short-lived possession unless the mass of the people could be informed to a certain degree.” I do not wish to determine whether American distrust in the media is actually warranted. For the sake of the argument presented here, it need only be shown that said demand for media exists. According to a 2015 Gallup poll, less than one in three

The key to improving American mass media

Republicans trusts the “mass media.” The statistics for Democrats remain higher at slightly more than half, but the trust of independents has fallen down to one in three. The lack of trust in mass media fuels Americans’ demand for public-interest journalism. Many people have turned to alternative sources of news, like highly partisan Facebook groups. A recent report by BuzzFeed revealed that between 20 and 40 percent of posts to these pages over the past year contained mostly false or a mix of true and false information. At the same time, these highly partisan pages like Occupy Democrats or Right Wing News have more fans on Facebook than Politico, CNN or ABC News. Clearly, media corporations like Comcast, CBS, or Time Warner are not delivering the quantity of solid journalism that consumers desire. The solution to this problem lies with well-funded reporting on television and online. In their 2011 book, “The Death and Life of American Journalism,” Robert McChesney and John Nichols show that many countries, particularly in Europe, fund public broadcasting as much as 75 times that of what we do in the U.S. This higher degree of funding is worth it. A 2009 study in the European Journal of Communication showed that those living

worst of our country’s sentiments, and that we have no reason whatsoever to normalize his presidency by “giving him a chance.” But for those already headed down that path, here’s a reminder of the material reality of what a Trump administration means. During campaign season, the Southern Poverty Law Center observed what it termed “The Trump Effect”: a general increase in anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim sentiment among K-12 students across the country, accompanied by a spike in uncivil political discourse. Two-thirds of teachers surveyed nationwide reported that students from minority groups — including immigrants, children of immigrants, Muslims and African-Americans — were afraid of what might happen to them or their families after the election. Muslims worried they might have tracking microchips implanted in their skin, and African-Americans expressed concern about “being sent back to Africa” or having to return to slavery. One teacher wrote to the SPLC: “My students have one thing in common. Apparently, America hates them.” The FBI reported Monday that hate crimes in the United States rose by six percent between 2014 and 2015, apparently justifying these students’ worst fears. Assaults, threats and destruction of property

in countries with well-funded, nonprofit, noncommercial broadcasting systems had a higher degree of political knowledge. There is also a smaller knowledge gap between the rich and poor in these countries. Some may point out the existence of PBS and NPR and claim that America already funds independent media. These “titans” of public broadcasting currently receive 0.014 percent of the federal budget and even get less than 20 percent of their funding from the government. Most of the money allocated to PBS goes toward children’s programming. Simply put, these organizations aren’t cutting it. Informative, independent journalism is a public good. This means that private firms tend to produce too little of it because it isn’t profitable. Real journalism is expensive, but it is incredibly important to cultivate an informed public. Government can provide a solution to issues with cost and quality. Perhaps Congress should start by creating a well-funded internet news site that can afford highly competent journalists who support nuanced views. This could be followed up by a television network. One thing is for certain: the demand is there. Will Thornton Third-year, policy analysis

increased across the board, with perpetrators targeting sexual, racial and religious minorities, and women. However, the most significant increase occurred in crimes targeting Muslims, which reached their highest level since immediately after 9/11. Trump has recently appointed Steve Bannon, former editor of the far-right, “altright” website Breitbart News, as his chief White House strategist and senior counselor. Bannon has since received glowing endorsements from the chairman of the American Nazi Party and David Duke, former Grand Wizard of the KKK. By no strange coincidence, the posters put up in Hagerty Hall this past week were put up by members of Bannon’s “alt-right” movement, who were probably well-versed in the toxic white-supremacist ideology that Duke and Bannon promote. Under a Trump presidency, it is probable that events like this will become commonplace. Joseph Glandorf First-year, exploration

Specialty braiding weaves its way to Columbus Local bars host weekly trivia nights DOMINIQUE JOHNSON Lantern reporter johnson.6289@osu.edu

Students looking to up their braid game can now achieve intricate styles from a salon near campus. Criss Cross Braid Studio at 219 King Ave. provides only braiding hairstyling services, specializing in French and Dutch braiding. Co-owner Roza Nussipbek has lived in Columbus for three years, and wanted to open the braiding studio similar to those common in her home country of Kazakhstan. “I came here and I noticed there were a lot of drying bars or blowout bars,” Nussipbek said. “So I decided I had enough experience to do this and came up with this idea. My stylists are not hairstylists, but braid artists. This entire salon is inspired by an art studio.” Kelsie Cummings, a braid artist at the studio, and fourth-year in communication said both French and Dutch braids involve three sections of hair. With a French braid, the hair is added while overlapping the center strand, as opposed to a Dutch braid in which the hair is passed under the center strand. Cummings said the braiding service is more sought out than she initially thought it would be. She said she enjoys braiding, which has been a hobby of hers for years. “This first week being open has been, honestly, just great,” she

said. “It is such a chill atmosphere coming to work, and it’s not the typical stress of an everyday salon. I can relax and focus on one style and the clients.” There are five basic hair-braiding styles offered to clients: Simple Chic, The Sass Master, The Amazon Warrior, The Big Cheese and The Little Wonder. These styles, which Nussipbek calls “vibes,” range from $25 for a simple style to $60 for a more intricate style. Styles take from an hour to an hour and a half to complete. For an additional $5, clients can have accessories added within

their braid style, such as safety pins, hair stickers and ribbon. Nussipbek said her team offers variations of these five styles, and they serve as a basis for the look each braid artist seeks to create. “We never ask the clients what type of braid that they want,” she said. “We always ask what their plans are for that day or evening, how they would like to express themselves or how they would like to feel.” The studio offers braiding classes to individuals and groups of stylists from other salons. Nussipbek said she will also travel to

parties and provide braiding as entertainment and hairstyling to bridal parties. She said she wanted to take advantage of the popularity of braiding by teaching, as well as actually doing the braids. “We do this back in my home country, so why not share it?” Nussipbek said. “Braiding is art and we really like what we do. My job is to inspire my artists and to give them direction. My hope is that I can expand this type of hair studio in Columbus and beyond.”

Each surgery costs $240, and last year’s event provided four, and Typewriter John and the Blue Strings won the battle. Admission to the event is free, but the organization raises money with donations, which attendees use to vote for their favorite band. The band that raises the most money will take home a $100 Buffalo Wild Wings gift card. This year’s event features seven local bands, who each fall somewhere between rock and pop. Aidan Hall, singer for alternative rock band Something Else, said even though the event suggests competition between the bands, his group is going into the gig with the same attitude as any other gig. “It’s a little different than usual, just in that it’s something more

Whether it’s dominating one’s relatives in Trivial Pursuit on family game night or showing off in the bar during trivia night, useless knowledge is never really useless.

Monday 4th Street Bar & Grill 1810 N. 4th St. This popular bar is located east of campus, and attracts students and area residents alike. Weekly trivia, starting at 10 p.m., offers patrons the chance to avoid the Monday blues. It also offers 50-cent wings on Mondays and happy hour from 3 to 9 p.m. on weekdays. Old North Arcade 2591 N. High St. Vintage arcade games — from Donkey Kong to NBA Jam — line the walls of Old North Arcade. Since its opening, the “barcade” has expanded from one room to three, and has added outdoor space, featuring a projector for movies and football games. It hosts Nerd Trivia starting at 7 p.m., covering movies, television and, of course, video games. Participants compete in teams, but solo arrivals can join one. Tuesday Gateway Film Center 1550 N.

not in the field of 68 in March. “Thinking back on last year, I don’t think we want that to happen this year again. We don’t want to drop early non-conference games like we did last year,” Bates-Diop said. “Those two games pretty much kept us out last year. I don’t like missing the tournament.” OSU has had its struggles, but a win over a notable opponent from the Big East would do a lot for the confidence of the Scarlet and Gray. “The focus is on just trying to get better, to get guys to play their best basketball and do that collectively,” Matta said. “We’ve shown some signs at times to do some pretty good things, but it’s been more about us and trying to get that flow of who we are.”

gan State,” Meyer said. “It means a lot.” Offense The Spartans offense has a much different look in 2016 than it did a season ago. No Connor Cook under center, no Aaron Burbridge or Macgarrett Kings at wide receiver and no Jack Conklin on the esteemed offensive line highlight the amount of talent that departed from an offense that returned just four starters. Senior quarterback Tyler O’Connor — a name that might be familiar to Ohio State — is the starter. O’Connor played for the injured Cook last season against OSU and controlled the offense enough to dethrone the Buckeyes from the undefeated ranks and destroy OSU’s chance at a second straight national title. This year, O’Connor hasn’t lit up the stat sheet, but he remains in the top half of the Big Ten in passing efficiency. The senior from Lima, Ohio, is completing more than 61 percent of his passes, but averages less than 200 yards passing per game. His favorite target is senior wide receiver R.J. Shelton. The Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, native has reeled in 47 passes this season for 710 yards and five touchdowns. He averages just under five receptions per game and is averaging more than 15 yards per catch. Shelton is O’Connor’s most targeted wide receiver on passes 20 yards or more. “As a coach, there’s always concern,” said co-defensive coordinator Greg Schiano. “When you put the tape on and I watch (Michigan State’s) explosive play reel and it’s 30 plays of passes alone, you’re talking three explosives a game. If that happens to you, that could be 21 points.” In the running game, another Ohio native, L.J. Scott from Hubbard, leads the Spartan backfield with 775 yards and five touchdowns. Statistically, the Spartans rank 67th in the nation in total offense, which plays right into the hands of OSU, which is ranked third in the nation in scoring defense. “They go deep into their roster and got some outstanding football players,” Dantonio said on Tuesday regarding OSU’s defense. “They run and tackle very effectively.” Defense OSU had its single worst offensive output with Meyer on the sidelines last season against Michigan State. OSU gained just 132 total yards in an abysmal performance that caused former running back Ezekiel Elliott to call out the coaching staff for only getting 12 carries, just four in the second half. However, to credit Michigan State, the Spartans’ front seven always present a physical challenge to the Buckeyes. “Even when we won 49-37 two years ago, you walk away from that game saying, ‘wow, that was physical,’” said redshirt junior guard Billy Price. “You have to respect

those guys. They’re cut from the same fabric we are.” The biggest departure from the 2015 Michigan State defense that won the Big Ten was three-time, second-team All-American Shilique Calhoun. Now playing for the Oakland Raiders, Calhoun had been an integral part of a defense that made it difficult on Price and the rest of the offensive line. However, junior defensive lineman Malik McDowell is still on the Spartans’ defensive front, and requires a great deal of attention from opposing teams. McDowell sat out last week’s game with an injury and Dantonio said that either McDowell will either be starting or won’t play on Saturday. The Spartans rank sixth in the Big Ten and 30th in the country in total defense. Junior linebacker Chris Frey leads their defense with 81 tackles and will play with a chip on his shoulder, having grown up down the street from OSU in Upper Arlington. OSU redshirt junior quarterback J.T. Barrett said that to have success against the Spartans this year, the offense will need to pick up yardage on first and second downs. “First down, (we) weren’t getting positive yardage and were playing behind the chains and weren’t able to get in rhythm,” he said. Barrett’s breakout game came against Michigan State in 2014 when he threw for 300 yards and accounted for five total touchdowns. He said the preparation for that game enabled his success. “I think we were playing well as a team and we knew we were the underdogs in that game so we wanted to come out, play hard for each other and it came to be a good game for us, especially offensively,” Barrett said. Breakdown The 2016 Spartans have been the biggest bust in the Big Ten this season. They started the conference season ranked in the top 10 and quickly plummeted down the rankings with seven consecutive losses. Despite all that, Meyer sees a team that is still capable of pulling off a colossal upset. “(They’re) extremely dangerous,” Meyer said. “As well-coached as any team in the country.” Barrett and the offense are playing at a very high level at the right time of the season and are going into East Lansing with a lot of confidence. OSU scored 60-plus points in two straight games for the first time since 1996. On paper, Ohio State should dominate the game on both sides of the ball. If history says anything about the two teams, the game will be decided in the late stages of the game. However, expect OSU to roll through this one pretty handily. Score: Ohio State 41-16

MEN’S BASKETBALL

Ohio State face first test against Providence JACOB MYERS Assistant Sports Editor myers.1669@osu.edu Monday’s 69-63 victory over the North Carolina Central Eagles had Ohio State men’s basketball coach left Thad Matta visibly upset. After watching the tape, sophomore guard C.J. Jackson said Matta brought a positive energy to the court for practice in preparation for Thursday’s game against the Providence Friars. Matta said that the energy and activity on the offensive and defensive ends of the court were not at a level that he expects from the Buckeyes. However, Matta counted eight times on Monday where the Eagles knocked down shots with a hard closeout from an OSU defender. On Wednesday, he said those that those are shots he can live with. “A lot of times when you’re playing a game, guys will make shots that you say ‘he couldn’t make that one again if he tried,’” Matta said. “With that said, it’s going to happen and how does that affect you going back the other way … I think that was the biggest issue.” Through the first two games, OSU has shown spurts of execution mixed with periods of uninspired play. In a game of runs, like

But Matta said the issue is getting his players to think quicker in action. He said the million-dollar question is how to coach the team to think about the game more while on the court. “I told our guys, ‘right now, on a scale from one to 10, I think we’re a two. But I don’t think there’s a coach in the country that thinks their team is above a three,’” Matta said. “Every guy has shown to play at a very, very high level.

What we got to do is playing at that level a majority of the time. That’s what I’m after with these guys.” Junior forward Keita Bates-Diop was sick last game, which was a reason why he only had nine points and two rebounds after a 14-point, 14-rebound game at Navy. He said he has recovered from his illness and will play on Thursday. Providence In the second annual Gavitt

Tipoff Games, a schedule of games played between the Big Ten Conference and the Big East, OSU drew the Providence Friars for the 2016 slate. Last season, the Friars lost to eventual national runner-up North Carolina in the second round of the NCAA tournament. Providence was led by point guard Kris Dunn and forward Ben Bentil, who have both moved on to professional careers. Dunn and Bentil led the team in scoring, averaging

a collective 37.5 points per game. Right behind them was 6-foot-8 sophomore forward Rodney Bullock. Now a junior, Bullock is the face of a Friars team that is hoping to return to the NCAA tournament for a fourth straight year. Bullock averaged 11.4 points per game in 2015-16, and he scored 18 points in a 80-58 victory in the season opener against Vermont. Junior Kyron Cartwright takes over for Dunn at point guard and brings a high IQ to the court, allowing the offense to flow through him. Junior forward Emmitt Holt led the Friars with 22 points against Vermont. Holt, who played as a freshman at Indiana, was 8-for-12 shooting and snatched five rebounds as well. OSU has struggled early on with communication on defensive switches on pick-and-roll action, which will be greatly test against sixth-year Providence coach Ed Cooley’s offense. For a team that missed out on the NCAA tournament last season, the Buckeyes see the matchup against Providence as a win that could give an early jolt to the resume. The early losses in 201516 to Texas-Arlington and Louisiana Tech ended up being a major factor into why the Buckeyes were BASKETBALL CONTINUES ON 6

OSU center Pat Elflein named semifinalist for 2016 Outland Trophy GENE ROSS Lantern reporter ross.1275@osu.edu Ohio State redshirt senior center Pat Elflein has been named one of five semifinalists for the Outland Trophy, a prestigious award given to the nation’s most outstanding interior lineman. One of the team captains for the 2016 season, Elflein is starting for a third consecutive season. This year, the two-time first-team allBig Ten lineman transitioned from guard to center, taking over after the departure of Jacoby Boren. Before the start of the season, there were questions surrounding the front five for OSU. Outside of Elflein and fellow All-American

candidate Billy Price, the Buckeyes offensive line includes three first-year starters. Elflein has had a big role in an Ohio State offense that finds itself first in the Big Ten in rushing (267), yards per carry (5.7) and total offense (511.4). The Buckeyes also rank second nationally in scoring (46.5 ppg). Along with the Outland Trophy, Elflein is also one of 20 players in the running for the Lombardi Award, awarded to college football’s best lineman or linebacker, and is on the watch list for the Rimington Trophy, awarded to the nation’s best center.

DOTTING THE i

OSU veterans not concerned with Michigan State record NICK MCWILLIAMS Sports Editor mcwilliams.66@osu.edu The No. 2 Ohio State Buckeyes and the Michigan State University Spartans have been at opposite ends of the spectrum this season. While the Buckeyes have had great success this season, earning a 9-1 record, coach Mark Dantonio’s team just got its third win this past Saturday. The records in games like these rarely matter, and OSU knows it. For players like redshirt senior center Pat Elflein, this Saturday will mark the final time they square off against Michigan State. Although Elflein redshirted his first season with the Scarlet and Gray in 2012, he has been around since that year to face the Spartans four times. In those four, OSU has went 2-2. Although he’s had more than 30 games under his belt in his collegiate career, he knows Michigan State in East Lansing is a whole different demon. “This will be my fourth time starting against these guys,” Elflein said. “And it doesn’t matter what the record is. These guys, they’re going to play hard, they’re going to have something dialed up for us because they always have a chip on their shoulder when the Buckeyes are in town.”

OSU senior offensive lineman Pat Elflein (65) poses for pictures with fans after the Buckeyes’ 62-3 win against Maryland on Nov. 12. Although The Game, the yearly showdown between OSU and Michigan, might be the biggest game of the year for the Scarlet and Gray, Michigan State is not far behind. The sting of losing in Ohio Stadium last year on a game-winning field goal has still not subsided for most on the roster, and Saturday could be a chance for redemption with the Spartans in a relatively down season. At 3-7, Michigan State is well below the level fans usually ex-

pect from the team. However, OSU co-defensive coordinator Greg Schiano knows this contest will not be easy for his unit and the entire team. “Offensively, I see a team that has really quality skill players,” Schiano said. “They’ve been beat up a little on the offensive line, but they’re (a) dangerous offensive football team. Even with all the injuries they’ve had, they’re in the middle of the pack in every offensive category.”

Redshirt junior Billy Price, who has never been afraid to voice his opinions to the media, said on Monday that Michigan State’s record might not necessarily reflect how the team will play against OSU. “That’s why college athletics is such a dynamic, awesome thing,” Price said “Any team can play and get beat. They might not be winning, they might not be dominating like they used to, but they’re always going to play us tough.”

On the defensive side of the ball, there is one senior who gets most of his time on special teams, but has appeared on defense a few times this year. Senior linebacker Craig Fada, a former walk-on with the team that earned a scholarship, has been with the team for four years now. Although not listed as a starter with the Silver Bullets, his contributions cannot be over exaggerated. With Fada’s final time against the Spartans right around the corner, he said the chance to earn one last win against Michigan State makes this time all the more special. “Oh, it does for sure,” he said. “They have given us problems in the past, and we’ll just try to everything we can to not repeat that.” When asked about Michigan week, Fada was quick to deflect the question, saying all eyes are on this coming week. Regardless, a somber expression could not be hidden, as his collegiate career comes to a close. With just two weeks left in the regular season, OSU coach Urban Meyer knows how important this week is to his team and to the players who get their final shot. But, as usual, Meyer is looking to this Saturday, and this Saturday only. For him, there is no looking FOOTBALL CONTINUES ON 6

WOMEN’S SOCCER

OSU shoots for second-round NCAA upset AARON TOMICH Lantern reporter tomich.17@osu.edu Two familiar foes face off in a rematch of a regular-season bout that sent both teams in different directions this year. Despite the dominant play of the West Virginia Mountaineers and the modest performances of Ohio State, the season has come full-circle as the two teams meet in the second round of the NCAA tournament. The OSU women’s soccer team travels to Morgantown, West Virginia, to play the top-seeded Mountaineers on Friday at 6 p.m. In the first matchup, the Mountaineers (20-1-1) beat the Buckeyes 2-1 in a tightly contested game on Sept. 4. OSU (12-9-2) comes into the game following an opening-round win against Dayton. The Buckeyes carry a chip on their shoulder waiting for a rematch with a team they have great knowledge on. “We do know a lot of girls on that team, and it is a very familiar team,” said senior forward Lindsay Agnew. “I think I’ve played them maybe five times in my career, so it’s always fun when you’re playing people you know.” The Mountaineers went on to

However, OSU coach Lori Walker is keeping those games in the past. “I have no control over what my opponents are doing,” Walker said. “Again, if we’re in a better position and playing better than we did eight weeks ago, I like our chances.” Walker pointed out that she believes the Buckeyes have devel-

oped a strong attack and an efficient midfield, all of which have played at full-force since the last meeting with West Virginia. This includes a mentality of toughness that has had a role in this week’s practice. “We’ve really focused on having a warrior mentality. My team is extremely competitive and they’re highly motivated,” Walker said. “(The mentality) is ‘I’m going to be respectful in everything that I do, but my job is to beat you’ and

there’s no apologizing for that.” Redshirt senior defender Morgan Wolcott anticipates a few surprises coming from West Virginia, but said she believes OSU has an upper hand. Wolcott is filled with confidence and the motivation of claiming victory after losing the regular season match. Defensively, the focus on Friday night will be communication and knowing where each defender has to be throughout the game. “It’s going to help us tremendously, especially putting up numbers around their forwards,” Wolcott said. “Their forwards are pretty quick and they like to take a lot of shots, so having that shotblock mentality against them, to not let those outside shots happen,

will be huge for us.” Agnew said the strength of West Virginia’s back line strength made the Buckeyes put emphasis on combination plays that move the ball quickly during practice, along with being physical to win the ball back, then go on the counter-attack. Though there is the simple pressure of winning and moving on, Walker continued to praise the younger Buckeyes’ leadership and ownership of individual responsibility in the wake of the end of this season. Walker said that these younger teammates have freed up the senior class, giving them the ability to enjoy the competition while playing with confidence. “This could be my last 90 minutes. I’m just approaching every game like this could be the last,” Agnew said. “So just giving everything you’ve got until the final whistle blows, just not giving up, and keep playing until the final second.”
