‘Two sledgehammers’ Big Ten Title hopes on the line when OSU meets Michigan State on Saturday TIM MOODY Sports editor moody.178@osu.edu

RITIKA SHAH / Lantern TV News director

OSU then-junior cornerback Doran Grant (12) tackles Michigan State then-redshirt-junior wide receiver Tony Lippett (14) during the 2013 Big Ten Championship Game on Dec. 7, 2013, in Indianapolis. OSU lost, 34-24.

On Saturday at 8 p.m., it will be exactly 11 months and a day since the 2013 Big Ten Championship Game in Indianapolis.

That game pitted the favorite — Ohio State — against Michigan State, but the Spartans dashed the Buckeyes’ hopes at competing for a BCS National Championship with a 34-24 victory. Now less then a year later, those two teams are scheduled to face off once again — at 8 p.m. on Saturday — in East Lansing, Mich., with similar title implications potentially on the line.

When the game kicks off, senior wide receiver Evan Spencer said he will be able to put 11 months and a day of thinking about last year’s loss behind him.

“This game, to me, means everything,” Spencer said Wednesday.

He added the significance has nothing to do with revenge, but said the loss to the Spartans has been on his mind ever since.

“It will be fun to get out there and play again against them, because I’ve been

thinking about that game since the Big Ten championship last year,” he said.

This time around — while many of the players on each roster remain the same — the matchup will be different. Both teams carry the same 7-1 overall record and 4-0 mark in Big Ten play, but the No. 7 Spartans enter Saturday as the favorites against the No. 13 Buckeyes.

But regardless of national rankings, the two teams are tied atop the Big Ten’s East Division, meaning the winner will be in the driver’s seat toward an appearance in Indianapolis once again, while the loser will likely miss out on a chance to compete for a title.

With such implications on the line,

Crime brief: College GOP and Dems look forward after elections Trespassing reported at Baker Systems again SARAH MIKATI Lantern reporter mikati.2@osu.edu

KHALID MOALIM Asst. multimedia editor moalim.2@osu.edu A man who was previously arrested after he was caught living in Baker Systems Engineering appears to have returned.

A female staff member reported criminal trespassing at Baker Systems on Friday at about 12:30 p.m., and officers dispatched to the area found clothes in an unlocked locker and a court notice that belonged to a man who was previously warned against trespassing in OSU buildings, according to a University Police report.

The report notes that the man was previously arrested in early October at Dreese Lab — the Department of Computer Science and Engineering — for trespassing. Some of that man’s personal belongings were found in locker when he was arrested last month as well.

Along with the clothing and court notice, four cell phones, a phone charger, a laptop and a computer cord were also found.

The lockers had been checked and were empty when the man was arrested.

The man — identified as 28-year-old Demarco Armstead — was arrested for criminal trespassing after he was caught on camera entering Baker Systems Engineering.

The IT manager for the Department of Integrated Systems Engineering — located in Baker — helped set up the hidden camera after students and faculty working in the suite of offices where Armstead was later found living said they would hear noises and see things rearranged.

Breaking and entering A 41-year-old man was arrested for breaking and entering at the former James Cancer Hospital on Saturday at about 12:30 a.m.

The man was taking items from the hospital offices, according to a University Police report.

When officers arrived at the scene, they examined the rooms where the incident occurred and found the doors to a cabinet of computer wires, keyboards and other computer equipment open.

The man, who had taken several items outside one of the rooms, told officers that he was just planning to look at the equipment he had taken.

The items included a Dell laptop, cables, a laptop case, one computer-mounted camera and a bag containing makeup, according to the police report.

A staff member at Parks Hall, which houses Ohio State’s College of Pharmacy, also reported breaking and entering Monday at 8:45 a.m. The incident was believed to have occurred Friday between 4 p.m. and 5:45 p.m.

The staff member reported an Apple iPad that belonged to the college stolen, according to a University Police report.

When officers arrived at the scene, they observed the wood around the lock on the door to be damaged and appeared as if someone had

Ohio State’s College Republicans and College Democrats groups watched as the Republican Party brought home wins in every major race of the Ohio midterm election Tuesday — and a member of each group agreed on one thing: the 2014 midterm elections were predictable.

Gov. John Kasich, representing the Republican Party with Lt. Gov. Mary Taylor, was elected to a second term. He ran against Democrat Ed FitzGerald, a Cuyahoga County executive, and his lieutenant governor candidate Sharen Neuhardt. Anita Rios ran with co-chair of the Ohio and Franklin County Green Parties Bob Fitrakis, representing the Green Party.

Sam Zuidema, chairman of OSU College Republicans and a fourth-year in history and political science, said he felt very confident leading up to the elections.

“All of the Republican statewide office holders have been doing a fantastic job,” he said. “Their success over the past four years testifies to why some people would consider Gov. Kasich’s re-election somewhat of a shoo-in.”

Michael Lakomy, political director of OSU College Democrats and second-year in accounting, said he knew these elections would be difficult for the Democratic Party.

He said voter turnout was low, and credited

“Kasich is lucky,” Lakomy said. “He gets to ride (President Barack) Obama’s coattails into a strong economy, and then he gets re-elected.”

Zuidema, however, said he views Obama as a reason for the Republican Party’s victories.

“I consider this campaign a referendum on Obama,” Zuidema said. “I think people have been dismayed in his lack of leadership, and

are looking in a different direction. I think that’s why the Republicans were able to take some massive gains in this election.”

Obama’s approval rating was 42 percent for the week of Oct. 27 to Sunday, according to Gallup.

Zuidema also said the Republican Party’s wins are a result of the Democratic Party’s inefficient campaigning.

Adderall commonly abused, but dangerous KRISTA MCCOMB Lantern reporter mccomb.28@osu.edu Adderall and drugs like it are being widely misused and abused, a counselor in the Office of Student Life said. And some students said the pills are fairly cheap and easy to get.

Adderall and similar medications such as Ritalin are commonly prescribed to treat disorders like attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and attention deficit disorder, but not everyone who takes them has a doctor’s permission.

“Students often start using (Adderall) to enhance their alertness while studying and to help them pull all-nighters to prepare for a big exam or to complete a paper or project,” Curtis Haywood, assistant director at Student Life’s counseling and consultation service , said in an email.

According to Addiction Center, a website geared toward providing information about addictions and treatment centers , high school and college students are some of Adderall’s most frequent abusers . Adderall is the most popular prescribed amphetamine and one of the most commonly abused substances in the

campus Recent Ohio State graduates make election runs AUDREY DUVALL Lantern reporter duvall.82@osu.edu While one recent Ohio State alumnus running for state office in Tuesday’s election saw victory, another saw defeat.

Niraj Antani, a spring 2013 graduate, won his bid for state representative of Ohio’s 42nd House District.

Antani was running against Democratic opponent Patrick Merris, who is currently a councilman in West Carrollton, Ohio.

Antani’s win makes him one of the first Republican Indian-American elected officials in Ohio history and one of the youngest sitting state representatives.

He is currently a law student at the University of Dayton.

Antani told The Lantern Wednesday that he’s excited to get started.

“I am very honored to have been elected and am looking forward to serving the people of my district and to continue fighting for our generation,” he said.

Antani said he would recommend

Adderall from 1A psychotic symptoms such as auditory and visual hallucinations.”

But some students said the abuse of drugs like Adderall is quite common.

A third-year student who wished to remain anonymous because of her illegal drug use said she has used Adderall twice during finals.

“I was curious the first time and the second time it worked,” she said. “It makes you really, really focused so you don’t realize that you’ve been studying for hours. You don’t get tired, you don’t get hungry, but once it wears off, you crash.”

She said it’s not difficult to find or expensive to buy.

“It’s so cheap. It’s only $2 a pill, but sometimes students bump up the price to $5 during finals. My sister takes it all the time,” she said.

Marisa Simon, a third-year in early and middle childhood studies, said she takes

students to run for government at a young age.

“I sincerely believe we need more young people in government if we want solutions for us we have to step up to the plate and lead,” he said.

Antani won by 29.18 percentage points.

Another OSU alumnus, however, didn’t come out ahead in the election. Micah Kamrass, a spring 2011 graduate, lost his bid for state representative of the 28th Ohio House District as the Democratic candidate.

Kamrass was the Undergraduate Student Government president from 2010-11.

He lost his race to Republican opponent Jonathan Dever, the founder of a law firm and a technology company, by 11.74 percentage points.

Kamrass, who received his law degree and master’s in public policy from OSU as well,, currently works for the Cincinnati law firm Manley Burke.

Kamrass could not be reached for comment via a campaign email as of Wednesday afternoon.

Tuesday’s elections in Ohio set a modern record low for voter turnout.

Concerta, which is prescribed to her and is similar to Adderall.

Simon said other students ask her for her medications, especially during finals.

“It’s usually my close friends. They’ll say like, ‘You know you can sell those for a lot’ or ‘I have a midterm coming up, I wish I had something to help me study.’ So they kind of hint at it but I’ve never given or sold it,” she said. “I need it. My personality and grades can’t afford to lose a medication that enables me to be as focused as most people without medication.”

Kiya Keili, a second-year in psychology, said she and her friends hear people talk about Adderall frequently.

“I know my friends and I talk about it a lot, about how other students use it but we don’t take it or actually know anyone who takes it.

I just know there are students who take it to help them do better on their midterms,” she said.

In Franklin County, only 36.25 percent of those eligible actually voted.

Statewide, in terms of the actual number of voters, this year was the lowest turnout in an election since before 1978.

After Tuesday’s elections, the Republican Party maintains control over Ohio’s government.

Gov. John Kasich, an OSU alumnus and the Republican incumbent, was elected to a second term.

Republican Attorney General Mike DeWine won the attorney general race against attorney David Pepper, who represented the Democratic Party.

Secretary of State Jon Husted, representing the Republican Party, was re-elected.

Republican State Auditor Dave Yost won re-election as well, running against Democrat John Patrick Carney and Libertarian candidate Bob Bridges.

State treasurer and OSU alumnus Josh Mandel, representing the Republican Party, won re-election against Democrat Connie Pillich.

The Ohio representatives in U.S. House of Representatives now consist of 12 Republicans and four Democrats.

Crime from 1A used something to pry the locks, according to the police report.

Thefts A 26-year-old man not affiliated with the university reported a theft at Ohio Stadium on Sunday that had occurred Saturday between 8:30 and 9 p.m.

The man reported his company had hired a photographer for the OSU-Illinois football game. The man’s company supplied the photographer with a Nikon camera, which included the memory card and battery, and a two-way radio earpiece, according to a University Police report.

Through a phone call, the photographer told the man that she no longer wanted to do the job, and said she left the equipment supplied to her at a table at

the press entrance. When the man went to retrieve the equipment, it wasn’t there.

Officers told the man that the situation was a civil case involving a signed contract between his company and a private contractor.

A male staff member at Woody Hayes Athletic Center reported another theft on Sunday at about 9 p.m., according to a University Police report.

The staff member reported that a chrome OSU game-worn football helmet — that has the number 32 on the back and the number 123 written on the inside in marker — was stolen, according to the police report. It was valued at $717.

There were nine thefts reported between Oct. 31 and Wednesday evening.

Elections from 1A election about who they pick, making sure they have a strong record of leadership, making sure that they won’t run into any blunders,” he said.

Although the Republican Party gained major wins in the statewide elections and won the United States Senate, Lakomy said he does not see its victory as representative of its popularity.

“Ohioans are not 100 percent on board with Kasich’s plan for Ohio,” Lakomy said. “(His agenda) is going to leave us with a state where the rich get richer, and most Ohioans lose out.”

Lakomy said Kasich’s tax plan and antiabortion agenda will hurt Ohioans.

Kasich cut the Ohio income tax and created a nonrefundable earned income tax credit.

He’s voted for banning partial-birth abortions and for barring transportation for minors seeking an abortion. Kasich takes an anti-abortion stance except in cases of rape and incest.

Zuidema, on the other hand, said Kasich’s agenda will create a better Ohio.

“He’s really been pushing modernization and diversification of Ohio’s economy, allowing young people to find a niche in the economy and stay in Ohio,” he said. “He’s just really pulled Ohio out of the dismal financial outlook that we were in four years ago.”

Looking forward, Lakomy said he is optimistic for the Democratic Party, though.

Sledgehammers from 1A

OSU coach Urban Meyer said a matchup like this is exactly what the Buckeyes work for.

“This is why we train, for moments like this,” Meyer said Wednesday. “Compete for a championship in November.”

Senior cornerback Doran Grant said the game against Michigan State “means a lot,” In the article ‘Women’s and added it’s a make-or-break volleyball drops 2nd moment for the Buckeyes’ straight to Penn State’ season going forward.

Geoff Carlston was “Obviously this could make incorrectly quoted as our season go one way, or saying “Obviously, make it go the other way,” Grant Penn State played said Wednesday. “And plus at a very high level,” what happened was they took when in fact, he said something from us last year.

“Honestly, Penn State They took it, so we gotta go get played at a very high it back.” level.”

With a win against the Spartans all but required for that chance to compete for a title next month, Meyer said the Buckeyes will have to find success against a team better than the one that beat them last December.

“This team is a better team,” he said. “They are more balanced offensively. I think they are dynamic and they develop their players.”

But Meyer recognized the strengths of his team as well, and during Tuesday’s Big Ten teleconference, he compared the matchup to a showdown between two tools better suited for breaking down a wall.

“It’s gonna be, I like to use the term ‘two sledgehammers,’” Meyer said of the matchup between his Buckeyes and coach Mark Dantonio’s Spartans.

On paper, those two sledgehammers look evenly matched.

On offense, OSU averages 45.6 points per game. As for the Spartans? They average 45.5 points every time they take the field.

Defensively, the Buckeyes have the edge again when it comes to points on the board, as they’ve given up 19.9 points per game so far this year. But Michigan State is close by at 20.3 points allowed per outing.

Both teams have gained more than 2,000 yards on the ground, but less than 2,100, and neither has given up 1,000 yards rushing yet this season.

The Buckeyes have thrown for 1,967 yards, just 116 yards less than Michigan State. OSU has allowed 1,451 yards passing this season, while the Spartans have given up just 21 yards more than that.

Statistically, perhaps the Spartans’ biggest clear advantage comes in the form of rushing touchdowns, of which they have 28 compared to 20 for the Buckeyes. But OSU makes up most of that gap with its 25 passing touchdowns compared to the Spartans’ 19.

Correction Issue 85/ Monday

“What’s really great is that this race has begun to open conversation with Ohioans about the way that Kasich has hurt the economy, and everything from women’s rights to voting rights,” Lakomy said. “Ohioans are hungry for a change, they’re hungry for answers that work and for solutions, and we’re excited to be able to start presenting those in this next session coming up.”

The election also included statewide executive office positions, the Ohio General Assembly, state representatives, the state Board of Education, county offices and judicial offices.

Republican Attorney General Mike DeWine won re-election against attorney David Pepper, who represented the Democratic party.

Secretary of State Jon Husted, representing the Republican party, was re-elected. He ran against: • Democrat Nina Turner, the state senate minority whip • Libertarian Kevin Knedler, state party chair Republican State Auditor Dave Yost won re-election as well, running against: • Democrat John Patrick Carney, a state representative • Libertarian Bob Bridges, state party vice chair State treasurer Josh Mandel, representing the Republican party, won re-election against Democrat Connie Pillich, a state representative.

With the numbers themselves almost identical, the matchup might have to come down to something else. OSU senior linebacker Curtis Grant said he expects the key to the game to come from one specific side of the ball.

“Whoever’s defense plays the … hardest,” he said Wednesday. “That’s what I think.

“I’ve always been told that defense wins championships and I believe that.”

If Curtis Grant’s words hold true, the Buckeyes might have to find a way to slow down a three-headed attack from Michigan State that features redshirt-senior running back Jeremy Langford, redshirt-junior quarterback Connor Cook and redshirt-senior wide receiver Tony Lippett.

Langford has rushed for 841 yards and 10 touchdowns this season, while Cook has tossed 17 touchdowns to just five interceptions and Lippett has made 42 receptions for an average of 21.2 yards per catch and nine touchdowns.

Curtis Grant had high praise for Cook, and said he does anything he must to keep the Michigan State offense rolling.

“He’s a big leader,” Curtis Grant said. “He puts the offense on his back. He calls the plays … and gets the ball to who he needs to get the ball to.”

He added that the key to stopping Langford might be to stop him early instead of letting him gain momentum.

“If we let him get rolling, it’s gonna be a hard time,” Curtis Grant said. “But if we stop him … and not let him get his momentum, we’ll be all right.”

As for Lippett, Doran Grant — who will likely be going headto-head with the top Spartan receiver on Saturday — had a basic plan in place to slow him down.

“Just fundamentals and playing ball,” he said. “At the end of the day, it don’t matter what stats is what.”

On the other side of the ball, senior tight end Jeff Heuerman said a big part of finding success against the Spartan defense will be getting the Buckeyes’ pass game going early on.

“I think you have to throw it effectively,” Heuerman said Wednesday. “Throwing it effectively will open up the run game and vice versa. Running it will open up the passing game.”

No matter which facet of the game — offense or defense — ends up being the key to whichever team comes out on top, Meyer said he simply wants his team to earn a victory and the perks that come with it.

Meyer is in his third season with OSU — having coached 34 games heading into Saturday — and he’s lost just three times overall.

“We have victory meals on Sundays and it’s been 31 out of 34 times they have got to go in and eat a nice meal on a Sunday,” he said Wednesday. “I want them to appreciate that and appreciate what they have done to do that.”

And in order to prepare his team as best he can so they can earn that nicer-than-normal meal, Meyer and the rest of the OSU coaching staff have ramped up practice heading into the weekend.

Doran Grant took just one word to describe what practices have been like with a showdown with the Spartans just around the corner.

“Intense.”

OSU looks to improve pass game JAMES GREGA, JR. Asst. sports editor grega.9@osu.edu

In its last matchup against the Michigan State Spartans, Ohio State completed just eight passes in a 34-24 loss in the Big Ten Championship Game.

Entering Saturday’s rematch, senior tight end Jeff Heuerman said the passing game will be essential to pulling the upset over No. 7 Michigan State.

“I think you have to throw it effectively. Throwing it effectively will open up the run game and vice versa, running it will open up the passing game,” he said Wednesday.

“So I think they kind of work hand-in-hand.”

In preparation for the Spartans, OSU coach Urban Meyer said he does not expect Michigan State to change its defense too drastically because of how talented it is.

“I think any time you face a defense like this, there will be new adjustments,” Meyer said Tuesday during the Big Ten teleconference. “There will not be a new defense.”

The Spartans boast the third-best defense in the Big Ten, allowing just 279.4 yards per game. They are led by redshirt-junior defensive lineman Shilique Calhoun who has been named a Chuck

Senior wide receiver Devin Smith said Wednesday that while he believes the Spartan defense has improved, he doesn’t see much difference in its scheme.

“We know that they like to blitz a lot, they like to play press

so we are just going to try and take advantage there,” Smith said. “We have worked (on) a bunch of different things in practice so we are just looking to go out there and show it on Saturday.”

Watching the Spartan defense has been a struggle for Smith, who said he is looking forward to Saturday.

“I don’t really watch much

of Michigan State this year just for the fact that what happened last year and they (are) kind of still on my mind,” Smith said Wednesday. “We want to hurry up and get to Saturday.”

5 questions ahead of East Lansing showdown JAMES GREGA, JR. AND TIM MOODY Asst. sports editor and Sports editor grega.9@osu.edu and moody.178@osu.edu It’s the game Buckeye, Spartan and Big Ten fans have been looking forward to all season long.

No. 13 Ohio State and No. 7 Michigan State are set to square off in a game that will in all likelihood decide the Big Ten East division champion Saturday night in East Lansing, Mich.

With the big game quickly approaching, The Lantern sports editors have come up with five things you should look for during the Buckeye-Spartan matchup.

1. How will J.T. Barrett perform on the big stage?

The redshirt-freshman quarterback struggled to handle the combination of the Penn State defense and the Beaver Stadium crowd two weeks ago, and will be facing a very similar environment and defense on Saturday.

The good news for Buckeye fans is that under Urban Meyer, OSU has yet to lose a true road game.

Barrett played average at best in his last game against Illinois, completing 15 of 24 passes for 167 yards and two scores in a half of football before being pulled for redshirtsophomore Cardale Jones.

Whether the lackluster performance was because of the brisk weather or the sprained MCL sustained in the first half of the Penn State game, Barrett’s performance could very well mean the difference between playing for a Big Ten championship, or watching the game back in Columbus.

2. Will Connor Cook once again dismantle the Buckeye secondary?

Coming into the 2013 Big Ten championship game, MSU now-redshirt-junior Connor Cook was known mostly as a game manager.

Then he met the OSU secondary.

Field hockey set for Big Ten tourney AJ KING Lantern reporter lewis-king.1@osu.edu

Ohio State field hockey has earned the right to face top-seeded and No. 2 Maryland in the first round of the Big Ten Tournament after sneaking into the bracket because of a head-to-head tiebreaker with Indiana.

In Maryland’s first season as a Big Ten member, the Terrapins dominated the conference. Maryland (16-2, 7-1) finished the season on an 11-game winning streak, including seven against intraconference foes to finish as the Big Ten regular season champions.

Before Maryland took the reins of the Big Ten, the Buckeyes (6-11, 1-7) and Terrapins squared off Oct. 3 in College Park, Md., in a game where OSU kept the score tied for 25 minutes before the flood-gates opened. The Terrapins scored four unanswered goals in the final 15 minutes of the first half, and ultimately defeated OSU in shutout fashion, 6-0.

OSU is going to try to make changes personnel-wise to match Maryland’s versatility, senior midfielder Kaitlyn Wagner said.

“I think we’re gonna have to maybe mix our lines together,” Wagner said. “Say maybe a midfielder switch with an offender if the offender is tired. We need to layer our fitness and rotate around.”

OSU coach Anne Wilkinson said the biggest problem in the first matchup was Maryland’s ability to build a rhythm and keep pressure on freshman goalkeeper Liz Tamburro.

“We need to be able to break (their momentum) and you need to be able to possess the ball to do that,” Wilkinson said. “We’ll work on being able to keep possession in small spaces. And again, being able to get some production out of our attacks.”

Maryland took home four Big Ten postseason awards. Senior midfielder Maxine Fluharty was named Big Ten Player of the Year after leading the conference’s best team with 15 goals on the season.

The Ohio State men’s soccer team played with as if under fire in the second half Wednesday with one thing in mind: win and come home for its quarterfinal matchup in the Big Ten Tournament.

And, thanks to a late goal by sophomore forward Christian Soldat, that is exactly where it will be playing Sunday — against a familiar foe.

OSU (8-6-4, 5-3-0) defeated Michigan (6-8-3, 3-3-2), 2-1, in Ann Arbor, Mich., to conclude its regular season.

Soldat — the top substitution off OSU coach John Bluem’s bench — deflected a shot off of a Michigan defender with just over five minutes remaining. Michigan redshirt-senior goalkeeper Adam Grinwis was crossed up by the deflection, and the shot trickled under his leg for Soldat’s third goal of the season.

Though the deciding goal for the Buckeyes did not come until late, they wasted no time in getting the scoring started.

sports Pass from 5A “Probably No. 1 to be honest. With what happened last year and what we are going up against, and the circumstances that we are in, I thinks it’s right up there,” he said.

While Smith is having trouble watching the film, fellow senior wide receiver Evan Spencer said Wednesday that he has seen things on the tape that he believes the Buckeye offense can take advantage of.

“They have their certain things that we are going to try to exploit and I’m sure they do ours for their side of the ball,” Spencer said. “I think that we will be very successful as a receiver room and as an offense as a whole just because of our preparation and the way we have looked throughout the week.”

Echoing Spencer, Smith said he believes taking shots downfield will be a way for OSU to open up its passing game.

“I think that’s key. We just got to take every opportunity that we can and go in on Saturday and be ready,” Smith said.

Taking chances downfield was something the Buckeyes couldn’t seem to do against the Spartans last year as they accumulated just 101 yards through the air.

M. soccer from 5A For the second time this season, sophomore Danny Jensen scored within the opening minute of the match. The forward streaked down the field and took a feed from senior midfielder Max Moller, putting it in the back of the net just 26 seconds in for his fourth goal of the season.

However, OSU was unable to hold onto that lead, as Michigan capitalized off a corner following a penalty kick saved

by OSU redshirt-senior goalkeeper Alex Ivanov. Senior defender Ben Manko scored the goal off the corner with a header.

Manko’s first of the season tied the game at 1-1 in the 31st minute, a score that held at the half.

Ivanov did a lot to keep his team in the game in the first half. The reigning Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week saved five shots in the opening half.

The Wolverines outshot OSU, 8-5, overall for the first half, with six of those coming on target.

The second half quickly turned that trend around, with OSU furiously searching for the deciding goal.

In an eerily similar circumstance, the Buckeyes completed just nine passes against Virginia Tech earlier this season, ultimately resulting in a 35-21 loss.

While the quarterback is different this year for OSU, Smith said he believes redshirt-freshman J.T. Barrett will be ready for the challenge the Spartans will present.

“He is taking it like it is just a regular game,” Smith said. “He knows what this game means to this whole program and he just came in here all week and just worked hard and he is ready.”

In addition to his preparation, Meyer added that Barrett “looks great,” after suffering a sprained MCL in the first half against Penn State less than two weeks ago.

Meyer also said that he reminded his players this week that Saturday’s matchup encapsulates why they came to OSU. “I just had a conversation with our players. This is why they are trained.

Every second of everything we do in the program from off-season to summer conditioning to training camp, we are training you for moments like this,” Meyer said. “Compete for a championship in November.”

The Buckeyes and Spartans are set to kick off in East Lansing, Mich., at 8 p.m.

For the latter half, the Buckeyes outshot Michigan, 11-4, but were unfruitful in their pursuit for the game winner until Soldat’s score.

It was a physical game between the rivals, as OSU committed 12 fouls in the game, while Michigan was whistled for eight. Jensen and junior defender Liam Doyle were also hit with yellow cards in the second half, as was Michigan freshman defender Billy Stevens.

With about two minutes left, Ivanov made a save on a header going toward the top of the net to seal the victory. For the game, Ivanov, the Big Ten leader in saves, stopped six shots.

OSU’s dreams of winning a share of the Big Ten regular season title came to a close early in the second half, when Maryland’s 3-2 win at Rutgers went final.

The Terrapins finished with 16 points to finish alone atop the conference.

However, OSU’s win was enough to push it one spot below Maryland as the second seed in the conference tournament.

The Buckeyes finished the season in a tie with Penn State and Northwestern

5 questions from 5A Elliott did not start against Illinois as freshman Curtis Samuel took the field for the Buckeyes instead.

Samuel did not disappoint either, as he scored from 23-yards out on OSU’s first drive against the Fighting Illini.

With the matchup against the Spartans looming, Elliott is listed as the starter on the Buckeyes depth chart, but Samuel could still see multiple touches.

Expect Elliott to get the start as the more experienced player in a hostile environment.

5. Can redshirt-senior Spartan running back Jeremy Langford break down the OSU defense?

In the seven games since matching up with Navy’s triple-option attack, the Buckeyes have given up more than 100 yards on the ground just three times.

It took 41 carries for Virginia Tech to make it to 125 yards on the ground, 38 carries for Rutgers to reach 149 and Illinois 42 carries to just pick up 106 yards rushing. So even if the final number has been in the triple-digits, OSU has repeatedly proven it can stop the run.

But the Buckeyes haven’t faced a back as good as Langford yet, and he’s been at his best over the Spartans’ past two games.

In those two games — two big wins against Indiana and Michigan — Langford has totaled

If he can keep up that form under the lights on Saturday, it could open up even more space for Cook in the passing game and cause huge problems for OSU when Michigan State has the ball.

“I worked really hard this season and my stats are among the top stats in the Big Ten, so yes, I do believe I deserved a spot,” Humphrey said in an email. “Unfortunately, I am young and a new face so I just have to work even harder to be recognized.”

Columbus’ Own

In an attempt to shine light on local music, The Lantern’s “Columbus’ Own” is a weekly series that will profile a new Columbus band each week.

The Girls! living it up to liberate Columbus women Jon Mcallister Asst. arts editor mcallister.107@osu.edu To be engulfed in ex-boyfriends, alcohol, heartache and even death can be a devastating environment to traverse. In many cases, the barren result of such negative experience is immobilizing.

However, Columbus power pop band The Girls! wants fellow women and anyone else to join them as they dance the bad things away.

“We want the girls to have a party,” said frontwoman Jessica Wabbit, whose real name is Jessica Ankrom, “Not being told what to do and not feeling like they can’t be comfortable being themselves.”

Three of the six groups members sat around a table on the patio of Little Rock Bar Tuesday night.

“I’m all about liberating girls ‘cause I’ve been in two really abusive relationships. I’m a rape victim,” Ankrom said. “I want women to feel like they can have

fun and do whatever the f--- they want.

“The ridiculous ideals that women have to be held up to physically — the first thing they do is get with some guy who puts them in a cage essentially,” she added.

“And not in the fun way,” Ankrom joked, provoking laughter from recently added guitarist Joe Damn, whose real name is Joe Rosenblum.

“First they’re their father’s daughter, then they’re somebody’s girlfriend and then they’re married and that’s all they ever do — dude, you can do whatever you want,” Ankrom said.

When Ankrom left the father of her child, she was making $8 an hour and working 12 hours a week.

“And I made it f------ work,” Ankrom said proudly.

Galilei is a member of Kappa Sigma Fraternity’s Alpha Sigma chapter. He said he enjoyed his photo shoot experience with Peace for Paws dogs.

“It was fun,” Galilei said. “The dogs were all over the place. In our picture, we were all laughing because one of the bigger dogs would not stop barking at the smaller one.”

Not only was the project a fun time for Galilei and his fraternity brothers, the photo shoot seemed to have made a lasting impression on members of the chapter.

“We fell in love with one of the dogs named Eddie,” he said. “We really wanted him — we actually felt like he was a Kappa Sig — so we might actually end up adopting the dog.”

Each month of the calendar is set in a popular campus location such as Mirror Lake, Ohio Stadium and the William Oxley Thompson statue in front of Thompson Library.

“We tried to incorporate the set of the month we wanted,” Smith said. “For example, for October we wanted to do a Halloween setting so we chose Orton Hall because it had a creepier, older vibe.”

Although some men enjoyed interacting with their fellow canine models, not all were as well-received as others. Fishbowl Improv actor Adam Hacker, a second-year in psychology, said he didn’t quite click with his co-models at their Christmasthemed photoshoot.

“I’m not sure the dogs liked me in particular because when I was trying to hold them, they just didn’t seem like they wanted to be held by me and were a little anxious,” Hacker said. “The worst part is, they seemed to be fine with everybody else. I absolutely loved those dogs still.”

Characteristically, the comedy troupe used this to their advantage. Rather than pose with nervous dogs, Hacker played the role instead.

“One of the dogs seemed extra anxious and the other one was laid back. While one (Fishbowl member) held that dog, the other one held me like a baby. It was like a funny-awkward family photo,” he said.

Men’s soccer forward Danny Jensen, a second-year studying business, sees potential in an annual calendar. Jensen said selecting student organizations for the calendar leaves room for progression in future calendars.

Brandon Hoffman, a fourth-year in finance, has opened for Chance The Rapper and DJed in Barcelona, Spain.

DJ B-Hoff brings EDM to Columbus and beyond Amanda Etchison Lantern reporter etchison.4@osu.edu When Brandon Hoffman started mixing music the summer before coming to Ohio State, he had no idea that in just a few short years, he would be trading his basement setup for the nightclubs of Spain.

“I was always really into electronic music and I just had a lot of time on my hands, so I took the initiative and I said, ‘I really want to learn how to DJ,’” said Hoffman, a fourth-year in finance. “So I self-taught myself how to DJ. I just looked up tutorials online on different DJ skills and I listened to a lot of DJ sets to figure out what worked well and what I could do to get better.”

Since then, Hoffman has partnered with Columbus-based concert promotion company Prime Social Group, and has performed at a variety of electronic dance music concerts and festivals under the stage name “DJ B-Hoff.”

Recently, Hoffman performed at a “silent disco” at Prime Social Group’s Halloween-themed EDM festival, HauntedFest, and opened for Chicago-based hip-hop artist Chance the Rapper at a Oct. 27 concert sponsored by the Ohio Union Activities Board.

“I hadn’t really played a hip-hop set before because I am usually all electronic,” Hoffman said of his opening set for Chance the Rapper. “It was really fun to see people moving to hip-hop and it was a packed house …

It switched up things from what I am used to.”

Hoffman’s HauntedFest set stayed true to his electronic roots, but the “silent disco” format was something Hoffman said he had never experienced before.

Audience members at the silent disco were given headphones and could tune to two different stations, each playing a live set by a different DJ. Using a dial on the side of the headphones, listeners could craft their own personal music listening experience.

“You could see who (at the silent disco) was listening to which station based on the color (of the lights on the) headphones,” Hoffman said. “There were around 200 headphones, and when I looked out, about 195 out of the 200 were set to my station.

“Just seeing them all on my station was really powerful as an artist.”

The Baltimore, Md, native also

performed at Prime Social Group’s 2014 AbroadFest, an EDM festival for students studying abroad that is annually hosted in Barcelona, Spain.

“We had been working with (Brandon) in Columbus and we knew what he was capable of in terms of getting people to come watch him perform,” said Mat Herbers, national director of marketing for Prime Social Group. “We knew he was going to pull people into the shows and we knew he was going to play a great set.”

Hoffman said his trip to Spain has greatly influenced how he approaches his performances, and he hopes to introduce these aspects into sets he plays for the Columbus EDM scene.

“I learned about different artists and different kinds of music and learned more techniques on how to open and close for shows,” he said. “And just reading the crowd … I learned a lot about that. I wasn’t playing for the typical people that I play for here, so I had to change up my style of music over there based on what they were enjoying and what they weren’t enjoying.”

Hoffman’s ability to cater his sets to the crowd dynamic is something that initially intrigued Prime Social Group, Herbers said.

“I think Brandon has a really knowledgeable sense of scene,” he said. “So when we were first working with him, we saw that the sets he was playing were really a great opening spot for headliners.”

David Kormos, a first-year in materials science and engineering, said he watched Hoffman’s Chance the Rapper performance, and agreed that the DJ was able to successfully energize the crowd as an opening act.

“He was good at pumping up the crowd, and he played good music,” he said.

Hoffman said he hopes that his audience leaves his shows having had a good time, even though his role in crafting the music sometimes goes unnoticed by the crowd.

“If the DJ is doing really well, the audience does not even know that there is a DJ … If people are really enjoying the music, they kind of forget that someone is crafting it. They just think that they are having a really good night and they are not really thinking about the music … until after,” he said. “(The audience) likes hearing good music and I like looking out and seeing them enjoying themselves. It is like a two-way street.”

opinion SB310 lays a framework for economic growth Letter to the editor:

I am writing in response to the letter to the editor published on Nov. 3 titled “SB310 a hit to industry” by Kylie Tien.

Senate Bill 310 was signed into law in June, and its main accomplishment was the freezing of renewable energy and energy efficiency standards for Ohio for the next two years.

Contrary to Ms. Tien’s claims, SB310 has laid a framework for growth across many sectors of Ohio’s economy and is a step in the right direction for the energy efficiency movement as a whole. Yes, that’s right, I just said that SB310, which freezes energy mandates in Ohio for two years, will be good for the green energy movement. Here’s why: The mandates require a certain percentage of energy consumption within Ohio come from renewable sources produced within Ohio every year. The problem is that renewable sources such as wind and solar within Ohio are more expensive than those same sources in neighboring states that share Ohio’s power grid, according to the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio.

So, by using consumption mandates to hand a portion of the energy market over to renewable energy companies within Ohio, the state government effectively granted them a huge slice of corporate welfare by allowing them to produce

at higher prices. Not only is this a violation of the Constitution’s Commerce Clause, but also it harms the more efficient out-of-state producers of renewable energy who have part of the energy market closed off to them by the mandates.

If these more-efficient producers are going to achieve their goal of making green energy sources widely affordable and usable, states cannot be setting up barriers that block interstate competition. By freezing the energy mandates at current levels, SB310 prevents further limitations of the type of competition that keeps renewable energy prices down.

SB310 acknowledges and elevates the importance of energy efficiency in Ohio but also acknowledges the fact that trying to achieve the goal of energy efficiency through government mandates, rather than market forces, can have devastating impacts on our local economy.

The price increases that these mandates have had since 2008 have put a heavy burden on Ohio’s economy, especially in the manufacturing sector. As a result of these costs, major Ohio manufacturers such as Timken and Alcoa supported SB310 and the costs to energy consumers since 2008 have been in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

Measurements of “job creation” due to the old mandates failure to take into account the countless jobs that the mandates have cost our state and also ignore the extremely high costs that

Courtesy of OSU

AEP Energy recently installed a solar array on the roof of OSU’s RPAC. ratepayers have incurred to subsidize renewable energy ventures within Ohio. No good method for cost-benefit analysis of these mandates is currently available because renewable energy producers were required under the old law to compare the present-day costs to a projected future value of benefits with no accountability for the accuracy of their projections. The study committee created in SB310 will establish new

measurement techniques to end these deceptions. Measures of benefits “lost” due to SB310 are really just bogus estimates that mask the true economic benefits of SB310, which Ohio has already begun to see.

Students for Justice in Palestine discuss inequality, injustice in Israel, Palestine Letter to the editor: Recently, more than 500 student activists from around the country converged on Tufts University for the fourth annual National Students for Justice in Palestine Conference. Run entirely for students by students, this year’s conference centered on the importance of joint struggle in the movement for justice in Palestine — that is, the imperative of connecting the movement to achieve freedom for Palestinians to efforts to dismantle racism, colonialism and imperialism both in the United States and abroad. We were joined not only by seasoned Palestine solidarity activists and those who have personally experienced the structural violence of the Israeli occupation, but also by organizers from the black, Latino, Filipino and LGBTQ communities, who emphasized the unity of their struggles with that of the Palestinians.

Our experience attending this year’s conference was at once inspirational and humbling. In the past year, as the burgeoning Palestine solidarity movement has grown in momentum in the face of continued Israeli human rights abuses and the collapse of the so-called “peace process,” efforts to silence pro-Palestinian, voices on campus have only intensified.

Witness the temporary suspension of Northeastern University’s SJP chapter earlier this year for distributing mock eviction notices — meant to simulate those routinely served upon Palestinian families

before their homes are demolished days later — to student dorms.

Or the arbitrary de-hiring of Steven Salaita at the University of Illinois for his outspoken criticism over Twitter of Israel’s brutal assault on Gaza this summer. These incidents are a sobering reminder of the taboo surrounding legitimate criticisms of Israeli policies.

Despite this well-funded and concerted campaign to suppress pro-Palestinian voices, the student activists we met — Jews, Muslims, Christians and atheists alike — remained steadfast in their commitment to ending their universities’ complicity in the Israeli occupation and to standing with other marginalized communities.

The same activists leading conversations on planning divestment campaigns and responding to false charges of anti-Semitism, for instance, were those at the front lines of the movements to end mass incarceration and police militarization. Indeed, many had traveled from their hometowns to protest police brutality in Ferguson, chanting slogans like “From Ferguson to Palestine, end racism now!” Immediately, we were comforted by the sense of belonging we found yet reminded of the work still to be done in our own communities.

As campus and community organizers, we often feel disconnected from the reality on the ground in Palestine: it is one thing to protest Israel’s wanton killing of over 2,000 Palestinians — more than 70 percent of them civilians — on the streets of Columbus this summer, or to educate fellow students on Israel’s illegal separation wall. It is quite another to actually live in Gaza, which has been

described as the world’s largest open-air prison, or to be shot at with tear gas and rubber (and sometimes live) bullets while engaging in weekly non-violent protests against the separation wall in the West Bank city of Bil’in.

However, if there was anything that was confirmed to us, it is that injustice and inequality remain alive and well in Israel/Palestine, and so too must the struggle for Palestinian freedom and self-determination. Yet this struggle will not be complete until the colonization and occupation of indigenous lands and peoples at home and abroad cease, nor until violence against women and black, indigenous and migrant people comes to an end. We call on all those who stand with the oppressed and marginalized to join us in ending our university’s complicity in the Israeli occupation and in demanding a world of freedom, equality and justice for all people.
