Locals react to
OSU attacks

Terrorism suspected in attack at OSU

By Dean Wright,
Sarah Hawley,
and Beth Sergent

By Andrew WelshHuggins
and Julie Carr Smyth

OHIO VALLEY —
The violent attacks at
The Ohio State University on Monday hit
close to home in the
Ohio Valley.
Tracy Burnette, a
South Gallia Middle
School science teacher,
and mother of OSU
student and South Gallia graduate Kirstin
Burnette, learned about
the attack as she was
in her home exercising
the morning of the incident. She said her husband Chris came down
the stairs about 10
a.m. and informed her
of an “active shooter”
event through Buckeye
Alerts, an alert tool
used by OSU’s department of public safety.
“It takes a minute to
register because we had
never heard anything
like that happening at
Ohio State,” said Tracy.
“Kirstin has said she’s
always felt extremely
safe there. She’s been
up there for almost a
semester and she loves
it and never felt uncomfortable. It made me a
bit nervous and you get
a bit sick to your stomach. We had contact
with. Her dad texted
her right after we got
the alert.”
Tracy said her daughter was out of harm’s
way. She said the family
and Kirstin texted back
and forth the whole
time. Her grandparents
were already on the
way to visit her that
weekend so Kirstin
was soon reunited with
family.
Tracy said she was
“really thankful to campus police” for their
quick response as well
as God for keeping students safe. Tracy commented she was frustrated at the confusion
of the event because
she felt at times the
location of the attack
was not well-relayed.
Scott Borden, University of Rio Grande and
Rio Grande Community
College campus police
chief, says confusion
is a tactic potential
shooters or mass
public attackers rely

on. He said he makes
several trips to speak
with civic organizations
or students on campus
a year and he leaves
them with a common
theme. Take 10 or 15
seconds to assess one’s
surroundings and how
they may potentially
be used to escape or
defend oneself.
“I mean did you ever
think that you might
be attacked in a church
or a movie theater?”
said Borden. “Things
like that are happening
these days and shooters
(or attackers) count on
that confusion.”
Borden said mass
attacks happen quickly
and many of the shootings commonly associated with such attacks
end within a three-minute time span. Campus
police and faculty are
trained to react in such
situations but Borden
says the best defense is
for an individual is to
be aware of their surroundings. Run when
you can, hide if you
can’t, and ﬁght as a last
resort.
Meigs County resident Jeremy Dutton is
a student at OSU and
was in his dorm room
at the time the alert
was sent out.
“I was about to
leave for class when
I got the alert for the
active shooter, so I was
already safely in my
dorm,” said Dutton in
a text message to the
Sentinel. “Me and the
couple of roommates
that were still in the
dorm as well locked
our door and just paid
attention for any new
alerts or news. Deﬁnitely a scary experience.”
Dutton said that
thankfully he does not
live near where the incident occurred.
Had the incident
occurred any later Dutton stated he would
have been outside
walking to class, which
would have had him
walking toward where
the incident took place.
The attack didn’t just
shake those on campus
but across Columbus.

Car and knife used as weapons
Associated Press

COLUMBUS, Ohio
— A Somali-born Ohio
State University student
plowed his car into a
group of pedestrians on
campus and then got
out and began stabbing
people with a butcher
knife Monday before he
was shot to death by an
ofﬁcer. Police said they
are investigating whether
it was a terrorist attack.
Eleven people were
hurt, one critically.
The attacker was iden-

tiﬁed as Abdul Razak Ali
Artan. He was born in
Somalia and was a legal
permanent U.S. resident,
according to a U.S. ofﬁcial who wasn’t authorized to discuss the case
and spoke on condition
of anonymity. The FBI
joined the investigation.
The details emerged
after a morning of confusion and conﬂicting
reports, created in part
by a series of tweets from
the university warning
that there was an “active
shooter” on campus and
that students should
“run, hide, ﬁght.” The
warning was prompted

THEIR VIEW

A vote for life
always wins
Voting for the least offensive and corrupt candidate is still a vote for an offensive, corrupt candidate. So, I exercised my right not to vote. I’m not
anti-American because I chose not to support a
candidate that I not only disagree with, but whose
demeanor in general makes me feel like I’m taking
a bath in jalapeno juice. But this piece is about
why I chose to not vote, not why I agree or disagree with either candidate’s stance on the issues.
People have said to me, “Can’t believe you’re
not voting. Men have died to protect your right to
vote.”
Yes, one of the many freedoms our soldiers preserve is the right to vote, but there are many more
freedoms I hold dear in addition to
the right to cast my vote such as the
right to bear arms and to freely worship whichever Deity I choose.
My grandfather was in the Air

Guard and I value their service. I

the Presidential hopefuls.
Sure, one of the candidates is
going to win, but should the voting
crowd try to bully me into voting for the least
offensive of the two and call me an uncaring citizen when I choose to abstain? I say no.
The image of my grandfather’s ﬂag-covered
casket reminds me life’s too short to try to please
everyone. Therefore, I vote to live my life by supporting only those individuals who, I believe, truly
possess integrity and speak their truth on the
issues. This vote supports my own values and is a
vote I am comfortable making.
With that being said, the professed Pro-Life
candidate crossed the ﬁnish line ﬁrst. I hear the
unborn children cheering for that victory. I hope
that his declarations were made in truth so that all
citizens in America can ﬂourish, not only those in
the womb.
A society is only as vivacious as it’s appreciation
for not only all life, but for all potential life. When
the bough of the tree of knowledge breaks, the
cradle will fall.

THEIR VIEW

In praise of buses, the most lovable way to travel
By Virginia Heffernan
Contributing Columnist

The motor coach is far
and away the least glamorous way to travel — but
also, perhaps, the most
lovable.
In his lecture series “The
Four Loves,” C.S. Lewis
borrows the Greek word
storge to describe the
affection we bear ratty armchairs and wheezing dogs,
familiar and unexceptional
things. Storge is not proud.
Lewis says that if you
ever were to put that ratty
armchair out on your front
lawn in daylight, you’d feel
a little ashamed. But while
you’re in that chair, unseen
— with a pipe or Netﬂix —
it is your dearest friend.
Same with the bus. Riders cultivate blindness to its
nonsterile aspects, enjoying
instead our working Wi-Fi
and shrewd thrift. I once
heard a man scold a woman
for talking on her phone;
other riders swiftly told
him to leave her alone. The
only pronounced intolerance among bus travelers is
for ﬁnickiness, fault-ﬁnding
and controlling nanny-state
stuff.
Given the quirks of the
clientele, it seems ﬁtting
that buses, unaccountably,
were spared the security
crackdown that followed
the 9/11 attacks. They
allow riders to pay with
cash without showing

century ﬁgure, romantically
lonely, gazing out at the
debasement of America,
humming his song of himself.
Greyhound, the ﬁrst
bus line in the U.S., was
founded in 1914 by Carl
Eric Wickman, a Swedish
immigrant to Minnesota.
When he lost his job as a
miner in Hibbing, he ﬁxed
up a homely car model that
never sold — it looked like
a six-window railroad car
perched on an uncertain
chassis from “Downton
Abbey” — and started driving his former colleagues
to the saloons in a hamlet
called Alice. For what was
essentially a cross-town
Hibbing-Alice service,
Wickman charged his
passengers 15 cents. (A gallon of gas cost about 12.)
Four years later, Wickman
owned eight buses and was
making $40,000 per year
— enough, today, to bus
it up and down the Paciﬁc
Coast 1,739 times.
Greyhound Lines
Inc. — though its parent
company is headquartered
in Scotland — is now a
national treasure. It has
alliances with everything I
imagined as its competition
(Trailways, Jefferson Lines,
Indian Trails, Peter Pan)
and also operates Amtrak’s
Thruway Motorcoach. Reddit and other yappy sites
are ﬁlled with young, thrifty

types weighing in on stations and bus lines, mostly
sharing tips and tricks for
how to endure the bus,
game it or enjoy it.
No one on the bus discussions fails to point out that,
for good and ill, intercity
buses transport all kinds. If
you’re riding intercity, you
might keep election discussions to mute texting, and
not tempt fate by assuming
you and your seatmate are
of a mind ideologically. The
high probability of personal
conﬂict among people of
such heterogeneous backgrounds is why the quintessential bus devotee, the
kind who used to “ride the
dawg” — take Greyhound
buses all over the country
— cultivates detachment
and disaffection, while
sleeping with one eye open.
Even when I’m with my
kids, who usually nod off,
there’s a sweet way the self
disappears during bus travel. I could be anyone. My
seat has no number. There’s
an emotional reprieve here,
on the long road between
the rush to leave town and
the emotional obligations
of my hometown. All of
that seems far away. There’s
just a third granola bar, the
landscape and the money
I’ve saved.

IDs; bags are not scanned;
people are never frisked.
Most buses don’t even have
seat belts, much less space
for children’s car seats.
They seem to represent a
strange zone of freedom
from everything: lawsuit
culture, maternal anxiety
and government scrutiny.
In liberating riders from
name-rank-serial-number
accountability, buses exhibit a pleasing lawlessness.
This can tilt into outright
contrarianism. After years
of busing it with kids, I’ve
found that riders reject
the moral imperative to
genuﬂect before mothers
and children, give up seats
for them, accommodate
their soiled diapers, bulky
strollers and inﬁnite forms
of parental entitlement. If
you want to sit with two
or more humans under 10,
you need to aggressively
commandeer — to the legit
resentment of other riders — the tight communal
seats by the bathroom,
where the honest scent of
urine meets the duplicity
of Febreze. The movies on
offer are sometimes wildly
inappropriate for families; a
friend swears she once saw
a slasher ﬂick.
The message is plain:
The ideal bus rider is not

Instead, he’s a solo male,

Contributing columnist

We are already seeing
signs that Latin America
may unite in condemning
the United States if President-elect Donald Trump
goes ahead with his plans to
build a border wall, deport
millions of undocumented
immigrants, dismantle or
renegotiate free-trade deals
with Mexico and other
countries, and overturn the
U.S. normalization with
Cuba.
Last week, while on a trip
to Chile, I already saw some
signs that the reaction to
Trump’s plans will not come
only from the usual suspects
— the anti-American autocrats who rule in Venezuela,
Ecuador, Bolivia, Nicaragua
and Cuba — but also from
U.S. allies. Trump’s negative agenda for the region
risks antagonizing the entire
hemisphere.
Former Chilean President
Ricardo Lagos, a leader of
Chile’s ruling party and a
top contender for the 2017
elections, is already calling
for a Latin American summit to denounce Trump’s
proposed border wall if the
U.S. president-elect goes
ahead with his plan to dramatically expand the existing fence.
“If the proposal to build
a wall on the U.S-Mexican

border materializes, I propose that we lead a Latin
American summit to ﬁght
its implementation and
protest against it, because it
affects us all,” Lagos wrote
in the daily El Mercurio.
“We must say with strength
and clarity that, under these
circumstances, we are all
Mexicans.”
Lagos, a moderate
politician who has always
denounced anti-American
populists, added that Latin
Americans should also team
up to defend the 2015 Paris
climate change accords,
which Trump criticized during the campaign.
Meanwhile, the foreign
ministers of Guatemala,
Honduras, El Salvador
and Mexico met Nov. 21
to map out a joint strategy
to confront possible mass
deportations by a Trump
administration.
“For Central America,
Trump’s immigration ideas
are a very serious problem,”
Mexico’s former foreign
minister Jorge Castaneda
told me. “They (Central
American leaders) want to
talk with Mexico because
there is a convergence of
interests.”
Central America would
be especially vulnerable to
massive U.S. deportations
because the region depends
heavily on family remittances from its migrants in the

United States. In addition,
Central American economies would have a hard time
absorbing a massive inﬂux
of deportees.
Peru’s President Pedro
Pablo Kuczynski, a former
U.S. citizen, told the Russia
Today news agency on Nov.
11 that “we will oppose by
all avenues, including the
United Nations,” Trump’s
idea to build a border wall.
Kuzcynski had told me in
a September interview that
Trump’s idea of building a
border wall was “unfortunate,” and that demanding
that Mexico pay for it was
“scandalous.” When I asked
him whether he was worried about a Trump victory,
he said, “no doubt it’s a
cause of concern, especially
because of the idea of protectionism, of breaking freetrade agreements that have
been good for all sides.”
Trump has vowed to renegotiate or withdraw from
the NAFTA free-trade deal
with Mexico and Canada
and says he will kill the

some hope — maybe it’s
just wishful thinking — that
Trump will signiﬁcantly
scale down his plans for
the border wall, massive

deportations and economic
isolationism once he gets to
the White House.
While every country has
the right to deport foreign
criminals, the idea of expelling millions of hard-working
people who pay taxes is
cheap populism, which will
hurt rather than help Americans.
If Trump goes ahead with
his negative agenda, he will
be giving ammunition to
Latin America’s beleaguered
leftist populist leaders. And
he will force pro-American
leaders in the region to
distance themselves from
Washington, whether it’s
because they sincerely
oppose Trump’s policies or
because they will not dare to
go against the massive antiTrump sentiment in their
own countries.
In either case, if Trump
wants to make some friends
in this hemisphere, he needs
to come up with a positive
agenda. If all he has to offer
is building a wall, mass
deportations and scrapping
free-trade deals, much of
the region is likely to shift
from polite disagreement to
strong diplomatic opposition. That would be bad for
all sides.

of Cubans began lining up early carrying portraits of Castro,

Lady Eagles
open season with
win over Vikes
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@civitasmedia.com

ALBANY, Ohio — Maybe now
Jacob Parker can ﬁnally get some
sleep.
After all, it was his not-too-shabby
debut — and a strong opening-day
performance from his team.
The Eastern Lady Eagles, bolstered by keeping Vinton County
scoreless for almost 10 minutes,
amounted three leads of exactly 21
points — then fended off a furious
Viking comeback bid to win 56-38 in
Saturday’s Spartan Tipoff Classic at
Alexander High School.
The contest marked the girls
basketball season opener for both
clubs, and was the Lady Eagles’ head
coaching debut for Parker.
“I told the girls I haven’t slept all
week,” said Parker. “For them, it’s
just a game, but for me it’s my ﬁrst
rodeo. Walking out with the ‘W’ is
deﬁnitely a better way to feel than
the other side. I’m pretty pleased
and happy.”
Parker should be.
The Eagles only trailed for the
opening two minutes and 15 seconds, then spent the remainder
of the game frustrating the Lady
Vikings into 33-percent shooting
(15-of-44) and 23 turnovers.
But the difference, despite the
Lady Vikings canning ﬁve secondhalf three-pointers to get as close as
40-34 with ﬁve minutes remaining,
was Eastern’s ability to keep Vinton
County off the scoreboard for nine
minutes and 45 seconds in the opening half.
The Vikings scored the ﬁrst three
points in only a minute and 15 seconds, but the Eagles answered with
seven straight over the next two
minutes to lead 7-3.
Vinton County never came closer
than the 40-34 deﬁcit after trailing
by 21 points three times.
“I told the girls it doesn’t matter
on the offensive end if you’re on or
off in the shooting column. As long
as you play good defense, you’re
going to set yourself up to win,” said
Parker. “In the ﬁrst half it showed.
When you play phenomenal defense
like we did, it will lead to offense.
And we transitioned so well. We
played great defense, controlled
the boards and was able to run the
ﬂoor.”
Eastern amounted a 13-5 advantage after the ﬁrst quarter, then
extended its edge to 26-5 with 2:50
remaining before halftime.
The Lady Eagles led 30-11 at the
half, then maintained cushions of
32-11 and 34-13 by the 5:48 mark of
the third period.
After Vinton County’s Cassie Bentley trimmed the deﬁcit to 7-5 with
four-and-a-half minutes left in the
ﬁrst quarter, the Lady Vikings didn’t
score again until Erin Jones’ threepointer from the corner with 1:45
remaining in the second.
It was Vinton County’s only ﬁrsthalf three in nine total attempts, part
of just 6-of-24 for the entire game.
Meanwhile, Madison Williams’ trifecta put the Lady Eagles in front for
good, while Jess Parker and Becca
Pullins popped a triple apiece in the
second stanza.

Hilltoppers win C-USA East crown with 60-6 rout of Marshall
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@civitasmedia.com

HUNTINGTON, W.Va.
— Forget the hill, Western
Kentucky is once again atop
the East Division mountain.
The Hilltoppers scored
points on nine of their ﬁrst
10 possessions and secured
a second consecutive
appearance in the Conference USA championship
game Saturday night following a 60-6 thumping of host
Marshall in the regular season ﬁnale for both programs
at Joan C. Edwards Stadium
in Cabell County.
Western Kentucky (9-3,
7-1 C-USA) scored touchdowns on their ﬁrst ﬁve
possessions while storming
out to a 48-0 lead less than
ﬁve minutes into the second
half.
Then, and only then, did
the Thundering Herd (3-9,
2-6) ﬁnally put together
enough offense to break into
the scoring column.
MU — which produced
only 230 yards of total
offense — covered 82 yards
over an impressive stretch
of 16 plays to ﬁnally hit
paydirt as Ryan Yurachek
hauled in a four-yard pass
from Garet Morrell with
1:57 left in the third quarter
for a 48-6 contest.
The Hilltoppers, however,
blocked the ensuing extrapoint kick and Joe Brown
returned the loose ball all
the way to the house — giving the guests a commanding 50-6 advantage.
WKU — which racked up
462 yards of total offense
— went on to add a 22-yard
ﬁeld goal by Skyler Simcox
with 14:52 left and capped
the scoring with a Quinton
Baker four-yard run with
7:23 left in regulation.
The Hilltoppers — who
won the Conference USA
championship last year after
defeating Southern Miss
45-28 — will be making a
repeat appearance in the
title game as they will host
West Division champion
Louisiana Tech at noon Saturday.
Western Kentucky, with
the win, actually clinched a
share of the 2016 East Division crown along with Old

Dominion. The Hilltoppers
defeated the Monarchs by a
59-24 margin to win the tiebreaker for the 2016 C-USA
championship berth.
“I couldn’t be prouder of
our team. It was very important for us to come ready
to play and we deﬁnitely
did that,” WKU coach Jeff
Brohm said after the victory.
“Our guys came ready and
practiced well. We started
out with a bang. We understood the importance of
the game. We had to win to
advance and our guys deﬁnitely did that.”
Marshall — which won
the 2014 Conference USA
crown, the same season that
WKU joined Conference
USA — saw a disappointing
2016 campaign come to a
grueling end, not to mention the program’s streak of
three consecutive years with
double-digit wins and bowl
victories.
A 54-point setback wasn’t
the most ﬁtting end for 13
seniors that enjoyed 36 wins
over the last four years.
This season, however, also
resulted in over half of the
program’s 17 losses during
that same span.
Seventh-year MU coach
Doc Holliday didn’t have
much to offer in terms of
what went wrong this year,
but he was quick to pay
respect to Western Kentucky and assured that the
2016 campaign will not be
something that is tolerated.
“Not a whole lot to be
said. They’re a good football
team, we’re not a good football team right now. We did
not meet the expectations
and standards that are to be
met around here this year,”
Holliday said. “We’ll go back
to work tomorrow and make
sure this never happens
again.”
Any hopes of a Marshall
upset quickly disappeared
after Kylen Towner returned
the opening kickoff 93 yards
to give WKU a 7-0 edge 14
seconds into the contest.
Taywan Taylor made it a
14-0 game with a 21-yard
touchdown catch from Mike
White at the 10:11 mark,
then Anthony Wales added a
19-yard run and hauled in a
16-yard pass from White for

Western Kentucky a 28-0
advantage after one quarter
of play.
Nicholas Norris caught
a 25-yard touchdown pass
from White eight seconds
into the second canto, giving the Hilltoppers a 35-0
advantage.
Simcox added successful
ﬁeld goals from 41 and 47

to take a comfortable 41-0
cushion into the break.
Despite having possession
for 19:57 of the ﬁrst 30 minutes of play, the Herd had
only 14 rushing yards on 16
carries and 93 yards of total
offense. The Hilltoppers,
conversely, owned an 18-9
edge in ﬁrst downs and had
286 yards of total offense,
including 100 rushing yards
on 13 totes.
Wales added his second
rushing score and third
touchdown overall with a
one-yard scamper at the
10:46 mark of the third
quarter, giving Western
Kentucky a sizable 48-0
lead.
The Hilltoppers ﬁnished
the night plus-2 in turnover
differential and scored seven
points off of takeaways.
The guests also claimed
a 27-18 advantage in ﬁrst

Williams and
Parker scored a dozen
points apiece, including eight for Williams
and seven for Parker
in the decisive ﬁrst
half.
Parker then drained
her second threepointer in the fourth
quarter — only 15
seconds after Jaz
Sharp scored for the
Lady Vikings to make
it 40-34.
In fact, in the ﬁnal
5:05, the Lady Eagles
outscored Vinton
County 16-4.
Eastern also sank
its free throws, going
9-of-12 in the ﬁnal
canto — following
a perfect 5-for-5
through the ﬁrst three
frames.
“That’s phenomenal for us,” said
Parker. “We preach in
practice all the time
about foul shooting.
At times, we’re not
a good foul shooting
team. But today, we
stepped up to the line
and brought it home.”
Parker and Laura
Pullins each went
4-for-4, as Pullins
posted ﬁve ﬁeld goals
for a game-high 14
points.
Pullins also tied
Vinton County’s
Samy Thompson for
a game-high eight
rebounds, as she
and Williams wound
up with four steals
apiece.
Parker dished
out ﬁve of the Lady
Eagles’ 17 assists, as
Williams and Pullins
each collected four.
Williams went 3-of3 at the line and Hannah Bailey 3-of-4, as
Becca Pullins scored
seven points and Bailey added a ﬁeld goal.
Elizabeth Collins
canned two ﬁeld goals
and Kelsey Casto one
to round out the Eastern scoring.
Bentley, on ﬁve
total ﬁeld goals,
paced Vinton County
with a dozen.
Jones drained a
pair of threes, while
Darian Radabaugh
— on two treys and a
deuce — added eight
points.
Eastern opens its
home slate on Thursday night against
non-league Warren,
so hopefully Parker
— between now and
then — picks up his
much-needed sleep.
“It was deﬁnitely

Point Pleasant’s Gracie Cottrill named all-state
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@civitasmedia.com

The West Virginia
Sports Writers Association has released the
2016 Class AA all-state
volleyball team, featuring
one Lady Knight.
Point Pleasant junior
Gracie Cottrill — a setter
and outside hitter — was
named all-state honorable
mention, becoming the
fourth Lady Knight to
earn an all-state volleyball
honor.
In helping the Lady
Knights to 17-12 record
and the program’s ﬁrstever regional berth in its
ninth year in existence,
Cottrill posted 32 aces,
197 assists and 81 kills.
The ﬁrst team captain
was Abby Strait, a senior
from Bridgeport, which
was the state runner-up
to Philip Barbour. Strait
compiled 819 kills and
helped her team to a 41-75 record this fall.
The second team captain was Kaylyn Bridges
— a senior from PikeView — who helped her
team to a state semiﬁnal
berth.
Point Pleasant’s previous three all-state honorees were Charli Leach
in 2015, Kaci Rifﬂe in

2012 and Regan Cottrill
in 2011. Leach and Rifﬂe
were both Class AAA
honorable mentions,
while Regan Cottrill was

Ohio State’s fate rests with playoff committee
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) —
Reveling in Saturday’s thrilling
win over Michigan and shut out
of the Big Ten Championship
game, Ohio State can only wait
a week to see whether it will get
a national playoff spot.
The No. 2 Buckeyes (11-1, 8-1
Big Ten, No. 2 CFP) lost control of their destiny when they
stumbled at Penn State on Oct.
22. Their win over Michigan put
into a play a tie-breaker system
that gives No. 8 Penn State the
Big Ten East Division title and
a shot at No. 5 Wisconsin in the
conference championship game
next Saturday.
The scenario also puts the
playoff committee in the unprecedented position of possibly putting a team among the top four
that won’t have a conference
championship on its resume.
Will Ohio State’s strength of
schedule, quality wins and
“body of work” be enough in the
eyes of committee members to
put the Buckeyes into the fourteam New Year’s Eve playoff?

The answer will be revealed
Dec. 4.
Committee members are
given the ﬂexibility to “examine
whatever data they believe is relevant to inform their decisions,”
including the instant classic
30-27 double-overtime win over
No. 3 Michigan and the nation’s
top defense last Saturday.
“Our body of work stands for
itself,” Ohio State guard Billy
Price said. “We beat a very good
Wisconsin team, Oklahoma,
the team up north (Michigan),
Nebraska. Those are very quality wins. Yes, there might have
been some struggles, but a win
is a win. In the Big Ten you are
not given wins. Our body of
work shows that we belong in
this playoff picture.”
Ohio State coach Urban
Meyer — who fell to the turf
moments after Curtis Samuel
ran for the winning touchdown
Saturday night — was either too
ﬂustered to think about it immediately after the game or didn’t
want to get into it.

“I think we’re one of the top
teams in the country,” Meyer
said.
Ohio State recorded three
wins over AP top 10 teams : No.
8 Wisconsin, No. 10 Nebraska
and No. 3 Michigan. Plus, the
Buckeyes beat No. 14 Oklahoma
back on Sept. 17.
“I mean it’s really out of our
hands,” quarterback J.T. Barrett
said. “At this time I think we are
one of the top four teams in the
country, personally, but I think
that, like I said, it’s up to the
committee to do their thing.”
Ohio State players and
coaches will watch the Big
Ten Championship on TV like
everybody else Saturday night,
knowing that the committee
could choose to move the winner into the top four and bump
the Buckeyes outside. A victory
by No. 5 Wisconsin (9-2, 7-2,
No. 6 CFP) could be more beneﬁcial to Ohio State, because
the Buckeyes beat the Badgers
30-23 in overtime a week before
losing to Penn State (10-2, 8-1,

No. 7 CFP) by three points in
October.
Regardless of who wins that
game, Ohio State center Pat
Elﬂein — who played in his
last game at Ohio Stadium and
celebrated on the ﬁeld with
thousands of scarlet-clad fans
who poured from the seats —
believes the Buckeyes belong.
“How can you keep us out?”
he said.
The other issue for the committee is whether Michigan
belongs among the top four,
despite having two losses. The
Wolverines shut down Barrett
and the Ohio State offense for
much of the game and likely
would have won if not for two
disastrous interceptions by
quarterback Wilton Speight.
Coach Jim Harbaugh said his
team lost only because of poor
ofﬁciating, and afterward players made a case for their inclusion in playoff.
“Along with Alabama, we are
arguably one of the best teams
in the country,” Speight said.

title game, and Wisconsin is in it for the fourth
time. Penn State is making its ﬁrst appearance
and going for its ﬁrst
championship since
2008.
The Badgers are 2-1
in Indianapolis, beating
Michigan State 42-39
in 2011 and Nebraska
70-31 in 2012 and losing
to Ohio State 59-0 in
2014.
Wisconsin is 9-8 alltime against Penn State.
This will be the ﬁrst
meeting since Nov. 30,
2013, when Penn State
won 31-24 in a wild
game in Madison.
INJURY UPDATE:
Penn State star running
back Saquon Barkley is
expected to play after
injuring his right foot
against Michigan State
on Saturday, Franklin
said.
Barkley averages 101.6
yards a game to rank
third in the Big Ten. He
was held to 14 yards on
12 carries in the 45-12
win over the Spartans.
Wisconsin coach Paul
Chryst said starting
quarterback Alex Hornibrook is day-to-day
after getting knocked
out of Saturday’s game

against Minnesota with
an apparent concussion.
Bart Houston played
the entire second half.
Chryst said Hornibrook
told him he felt better
Sunday.
FRANKLIN’S JOURNEY: Penn State lost
four straight to end
2015 and got off to a 2-2
start this season with
those losses of 42-39 to
Pittsburgh and 49-10 to
Michigan. A few days
after the loss in Ann
Arbor, athletic director
Sandy Barbour pledged
allegiance to Franklin,
saying his job was not in
jeopardy.
Despite a run of
injuries that hit the linebacker corps especially
hard and left the Lions
without seven starters,
Penn State turned into
one of the hottest teams
in the nation.
Linebacker Jason
Cabinda said he and his
teammates never ruled
out a chance to play in
Indy.
“We talked about it
all last season. That
this was our goal and
this is where we wanted
to go, so we put our
head down and went to
work,” Cabinda said.

“Every week we have
improved and gotten
better and now we have
a tremendous opportunity to go Indianapolis
next week and ﬁnish this
thing and get a Big Ten
championship.”
BADGER DOMINANCE: Wisconsin and
Alabama are the only
Power Five programs to
reach conference title
games four times since
2011. The Badgers have
won at least 10 games
six of the last eight years
and are 17-3 in their last
20 games. They’re 15-3
against Big Ten West
teams since the conference went to the current
divisions in 2014.
IT’S ABOUT
DEFENSE: Wisconsin
and Penn State rank
Nos. 3 and 4 in total
defense in the Big Ten,
with the Badgers allowing 292 yards a game
and the Lions 346.
No one has been running much against either
team lately. Only ﬁve
opponents have run for
100 yards against the
Badgers. Penn State has
allowed no more than
110 yards on the ground
in any of its last ﬁve
games.

ADVANCED
HEARING AID
TECHNOLOGY

For Less Than $200
“I was amazed! Sounds I hadn’t heard
in years came back to me!”
— Don, January 2016

How can a
hearing aid
that costs
less than
$200 be every
bit as good as
one that sells for
$2,000 or more?

defense provided a spark
when the offense was

“We needed a spark.
Our defense kept hanging in there and hanging
in there and then our
offense kind of took over

said.
Turnovers hurt Michigan badly. OSU’s only
touchdown in the ﬁrst
half came on a 16-yard
interception return by
Malik Hooker. The Wolverines lost a fumble at
Ohio State’s 1-yard line
early in the second half.
And Baker’s interception
led to OSU’s other TD in
regulation.
And now, with Penn
State and Wisconsin playing in next week’s Big
Ten championship game,
Ohio State will wait to
see what the future holds.

Ravens snap skid
against Bengals, 19-14
BALTIMORE (AP) —
One touchdown and Justin Tucker’s ﬂawless right
leg were enough to thrust
the Baltimore Ravens into
a ﬁrst-place tie in the AFC
North.
Tucker kicked four ﬁeld
goals and Baltimore shut
down the Cincinnati Bengals’ depleted offense Sunday in a 19-14 victory that
put the resurgent Ravens
back over .500.
Baltimore (6-5) has won
three of four following a
four-game losing streak.
Joe Flacco threw for
234 yards and a score to
help the Ravens end a
ﬁve-game skid against the
Bengals (3-7-1), whose
playoff hopes took another serious blow.
The victory was not
assured until Cincinnati
quarterback Andy Dalton
fumbled when sacked
by Elvis Dumervil, and
defensive end Lawrence
Guy recovered at the Baltimore 21 with 1:05 left
and the Ravens up 19-12.
“We don’t want a
fumble at the end,” Bengals coach Marvin Lewis
said. “He moved up in the
pocket. They just got a
hand on the ball.”
Cincinnati got a safety

oncoming Bengals, drawing numerous ﬂags.
By rule, a game does
not continue on an offensive penalty as it would
on a defensive penalty.
Dalton went 26 for 48
for 283 yards. He fumbled
three times, losing two.
At this point, the
Bengals will need a sensational ﬁnish to extend
their run of consecutive
playoff appearances to six.
Cincinnati has won only
one of seven games since
Sept. 29.
“We have been able to
control it ourselves. Now
we need help,” Lewis
said.
Tucker connected from
52, 57 and 54 yards to
stake the Ravens to a 16-3
halftime lead. He added a
36-yard ﬁeld goal to make
it 19-9 with 12:16 remaining.
Tucker has made 34

ﬁeld goals in a row,
including 27 this season,
and has connected on all
15 conversion tries.
“If you want to win,
you want the ball in your
hands,” Tucker said. “In
my case, at your feet.”
Baltimore’s secondranked defense was the
difference-maker. Terrell
Suggs had two sacks and
forced two fumbles, and
the Bengals gained only
64 yards on the ground.
Baltimore had something to do with it, but
Cincinnati was playing
without running back
Giovani Bernard and wide
receiver A.J. Green , both
of whom were injured last
week in a loss to Buffalo.
Bernard was lost for the
season with a torn ACL
and Green sustained a
hamstring injury that
could sideline him for several weeks.
