The popularity and growth of the winter commencement forced Marshall officials to move this year’s ceremony from Cam Henderson Center on the Huntington campus to the Big Sandy Superstore Arena. “We simply outgrew the Henderson Center,” Registrar Roberta Ferguson said. “We didn’t really want to move off campus, but we had to accommodate all of the graduates and their families. We are looking forward to a wonderful ceremony as these students celebrate a monumental milestone in their lives.” Among the 1,077 students who received or are about to receive degrees are 695 undergraduates and 379 with graduate degrees. About 450 students have indicated they plan to participate in the ceremony. Each graduate will receive congratulations from President Stephen J. Kopp and be presented with a scroll by his or her academic dean. Ferguson said 199 students will graduate with honors. Twenty-four will graduate summa cum laude (3.85 to 4.0 GPA), 49 magna cum laude (3.6 to 3.84 GPA), and 112 cum laude (3.3 to 3.59 GPA). Four students receiving associate degrees will graduate with high honors, and 10 associate degree recipients will graduate with honors. One student has completed her baccalaureate degree with a perfect 4.0 GPA. She is Sarah Michelle Barber of St. Albans, W.Va. Keynote speaker at the commence- ment will be Emeritus Professor of Mathematics Dr. Judith Silver, who taught math at Marshall University for 30 years before retiring last spring. Marshall began conducting a winter graduation ceremony in 2008 with a convocation at the Keith-Albee Performing Arts Center. The speaker was Dr. Montserrat Miller, a professor of history. Winter commencement began in 2009 at Cam Henderson Center and the tradition of having an MU professor deliver the keynote address continued. Previous winter commencement speakers were Dr. Simon Perry, professor of political science, in 2009; Dr. Bonita Lawrence, professor of mathematics, in 2010; Dr. Jamie Warner, professor of political science, in 2011; Dan Hollis, associate professor of journalism and mass communications, in 2012, and Dr. Kateryna Schray, an English professor, in 2013. For the best local weather coverage, visit www.mydailysentinel.com DVDs available Marshall University will produce a DVD of the winter commencement ceremony that can be purchased for $20. Orders may be submitted using the DVD order form on the registrar’s office website (www.marshall.edu/ registrar). Orders also will be accepted Dec. 14 at the Big Sandy Superstore Arena. The Marshall University Alumni Association will process the DVD orders. Military Service Recognition Marshall University will recognize graduates with military service by issuing special red, white and blue cords to be worn at commencement. Military cords must be picked up in the registrar’s office by 5 p.m. Friday, Dec. 13. Cords are to be kept by graduates. Training Medical Command’s Com- is what motivates anyone mand Sgt. Maj.

A box or two of cereal is given out in each food box. The Wahama food drive was such a success that VanMeter said they are doing it again this month, focusing on cereal. Students will be collecting the cereal the week of Dec. 15-19, in time for Christmas. Anyone wishing to help can drop off their donations at the school during regular hours.

Every Christmas season, these stringed puppets were used in plays by the church to tell the true meaning of Christmas. Each in their puppet hearts were thrilled to be manipulated by the church people to re-create the Nativity, and, when alone together on their storage shelves, their puppet conversation usually expressed desire to be human so they, too, could worship in spirit the truthful significance of Jesus’ birth. As these three transformed marionettes were led to exit the church building, the angel reminded them about the strings still attached to their heads, arms and legs. “You have been granted special privilege to celebrate the truth of Christmas with a group of Christians.

The black velvet of night’s shadows swathes the little town in a quiet embrace. Occasionally, were one to simply listen, all that can be heard are the sounds that animals utter at times in the deep of night, the bleating of a sheep here, the lowing of a cow there. Abruptly, the frail and fragile cry of a newborn baby breaks the sleepy stillness and then is hushed as the little one is comforted by his young mother. No, all is not quite silent. The whisper of God stirs the veils of human sorrow. Into the very midst of violence and hate, Love has come. Overhead, tiny torches glitter in the infinite blackness, an innumerable host of stars gazing perpetually down upon the woes of humanity. One star in particular blazes forth as it joyfully announces the sudden advent of hope into the world. So bright is its light that objects and people below cast dim shadows upon the stones of the somber streets. No, all is not completely dark. From the womb of waiting and suffering, a spark of divine Light has been birthed. Thirty years pass as God’s divine intent nears its culmination. On yet another dark and quiet night, the Lord dow: “THIS YEAR’S MOST POPULAR TOY! PERKY THE PUPPET PUP ON SALE, 2:30 p.m. SPECIAL PRICE! HURRY — SUPPLIES LIMITED!” Remembering how he and his two friends had always wanted a pup as a part of their team, his own puppet strings pulled him right in line with the congregated and frenzied Christmas shoppers. Undeterred, the third made his way to the Bethlehem Church and the Christmas Eve service. For hours afterward in the sanctuary, he basked in the glow that the spiritual participant gains when Christ is preeminent in the affairs of life. The afternoon was finally fading into the feint light of evening when he emerged from the church. There were his companions plopped on the church steps in disgust. Both were disheveled with raveled and knotted strings. The one was depressed for not having money to buy, and the other was disgruntled because he lost in the competition for the Yet a little while and Jesus, seated with his the world will see Me closest friends and no more, but you will helpers, carefully lays a see Me.

The world had successfully pulled their strings, and the joy of spiritual opportunity had passed them by. The Christ of Christmas had become lost in the cold, crass and course exercise of special purchase prices that had garnered them no more than exasperation of the emotion and excavation of the soul. By the time Christmas morning bells chimed, they had made their way back to their church, and the angel was there to set them back on their shelves. Their faces told the compelling story. Do not let the world pull your string. Instead, be drawn to the Christ of Christmas by virtue of the reasons for His birth on our behalf. When those reasons are prioritized, the heights of human experience affect life for the glory of God and the good of man. “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men.” The Rev. Ron Branch is pastor of Faith Baptist Church in Mason, W.Va. anchored indeed in spite of the most tumultuous of times. Proclaiming a message of joy, He fills the cup of their lives with meaning, enthusiasm and vision that will move this “good news” to the ends of the earth. “… (Jesus) said to them … ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn into joy. When a woman is giving birth, she has sorrow because her hour has come, but when she has delivered the baby, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world. So also you have sorrow now, but I will see you again and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you.’” (John 16:19, 20-22 ESV) Christmas is an opportunity to celebrate the hope, peace and joy that the love of Christ secures for us. And because we each have access by faith to the Light of the Truth of God as revealed in Christ Jesus, we may shrug off the clinging claws of despair and walk through life as victorious children of God.

SEARCH THE SCRIPTURE To be a Christian, a part of the Kingdom of God, Jesus said that one must be born again, explaining that this new birth, of water and the Spirit, is a spiritual birth (cf. John 3:3-5). Paul explains the new birth to the Romans, illustrating that in Baptism, we die to our old self, are buried with Christ and then, coming out of the water, rise to a newness of life (cf. Romans 6:4-5). Peter, speaking concerning our birth as God’s children, further adds, “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.” (1 Peter 1:3-5) As we obey the Gospel, we our born into a new life in Christ. This new life is not a life of despair or misery, but of joy and hope. Hope, an earnest expectation of blessings to come, is not for the Christian a nebulous, fleeting dream; rather it is a concrete assurance of blessings founded in the promises of God, who cannot lie. As we examine the words of Peter, we discern at least three facts about this hope. Firstly, it is the hope of an inheritance. The concept of a Christian inheritance is one found throughout the New Testament. Paul writes to the Colossians, say- ing, “[give] thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light,” and, “knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.” (Colossians 1:12, 3:24) Those who come to God and are born again are born into the family of God as children of God. We are given the Spirit which testifies to our adoption, and we are made joint-heirs of the Father with Christ. (cf. Romans 8:14-17). Though we serve God in the church, we serve as sons, and we are loved and treated as the Father’s children (cf. Galatians 4:31; Hebrews 12:6-8). When we think of the heavenly reward that the Father has prepared, we should always be mindful that it is a spiritual legacy, better than any earthly inheritance; it is the very Kingdom and domain of the Creator of all things, the birth-right of Christ, the Son of God, and it is to be given to all of God’s faithful children. Secondly, our living hope is a hope that will not fail. What heirloom is there that in this world will last forever. All earthly treasures, no matter how cherished, are subject to time, wear and loss. Thus Jesus reminds us, “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.” (Matthew 6:19-20) Men frequently labor in this life for dreams that prove hollow, or fade. Treasure, blood, sweat and tears are expended for goals that do not last, or which diminish in value when obtained. But the glories of heaven will never diminish in value. Thirdly and finally, the hope prepared for us is a hope that is kept waiting, reserved in heaven for the faithful. Though there are present benefits to serving the Lord, the rewards will never be fully found in this life. Heaven and the hereafter is what we should labor for. Unfortunately, many turn aside from the path, desiring immediate gratification over future rewards, thus sacrificing that which is best for that which can not, in the end, bless. But, for those who understand that, “the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us,” (Romans 8:18), the wait and the labor is well worth it. God has a home ready for His children. He has promised it to us, if we will journey towards it. Let us not grow weary in well doing, but resolve to lay up a spiritual inheritance in the family of God through obedience to the Gospel of Christ. If you would learn more of how to obtain this spiritual legacy, we invite you to study and worship with the Church of Christ at 234 Chapel Drive, Gallipolis. �CHURCH DIRECTORY Daily Sentinel Friday, December 5, 2014 5 MEIGS COUNTY CHURCH DIRECTORY Liberty Assembly of God Dudding Lane, Mason, W.Va.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Two players from the Ohio Valley Publishing area were selected to the Associated Press Division V All-Ohio football team, as voted on by a panel of AP sports writers throughout the Buckeye State. Only one local program — River Valley — competed at the D-5 level this past fall, and the Raiders enjoyed their best gridiron campaign since 2003 after finishing 5-5 during their first run through the Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division. Both RVHS honorees earned special mention accolades on the D-5 squad, and both will be back next fall to improve on their successes. Juniors Kirk Morrow and Josh Campbell were the choices for the Silver and Black. Campbell was chosen on the defensive side of the ball after posting season totals of 75.5 tackles, which included seven tackles for loss as a linebacker. Morrow was a wide receiver that posted 45 catches for 771 yards and six scores. Brody Hoying of Coldwater and Jake Boccuti of Canton Central Catholic were named the offensive players of the year in D-5, while Prince Sammons of Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy and Mitch Fullenkamp of Coldwater were the defensive player of the year selections. Tony Legando of Huron and Jeff Lindesmith of Canton Central Catholic were the coaches of the year in Division V. Bryan Walters can be reached at 740-4462342, ext. 2101. Badgers D wary of Buckeyes, new starting QB Jones MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin defensive coordinator Dave Aranda drew on a baseball analogy to describe Ohio State’s best offense in the Big Ten. It didn’t matter that injuries had the sixthranked Buckeyes relying on third-stringer Cardale Jones at quarterback heading into Saturday’s Big Ten championship game in Indianapolis. “Every play with their skill is a home-run shot, so if you’re not perfect with everything, then it’s a big chance of a big play,” Aranda said. “This year, toward the end of the season, they’ve shown some big-play capability.” They’re going with the football equivalent of a promising but inexperienced hurler out of the bullpen to finish their season. It doesn’t get any tougher than having to face the league-best defense of Wisconsin (10-2, No. 13 CFP), which allows 260.3 yards per game. Jones is playing in relief of Heisman Trophy candidate J.T. Barrett, who broke his ankle in last week’s win over Michigan. Jones had the edge as the backup going into fall camp. Barrett, a redshirt freshman, had performed well while replacing Braxton Miller, the three-year starter who hurt his right shoulder two weeks before the season opener. So Jones will make his first career start in the biggest game of the season for Ohio State (11-1, No. 5 CFP). “Obviously, a really good environment against a very tough defense,” Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer said. “But it’s not like he’s not taking snaps with the one offense or understands the concepts. So he has a very good understanding.” Mainly, Jones has watched Barrett operate an offense that leads the conference in scoring (44.1 points per game) and total yardage (503.4 yards). Barrett was hurt on a carry on the first play of the fourth quarter against Michigan. The Buckeyes were held to 416 yards in total offense in the game, their lowest total since being limited to 293 at Penn State on Oct. 25. For his career, Jones is 10 of 19 for 121 yards and two touchdowns. The move to Jones might put Wisconsin at a disadvantage because there’s not much film of him out there — especially in meaningful situations. “I guess we won’t really know until Saturday,” Badgers linebacker Marcus Trotter said when asked how different Ohio State’s offense might look with Jones instead of Barrett.

Area lands 9 on D-7 All-Ohio squad By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com COLUMBUS, Ohio — Nine players from the Ohio Valley Publishing area were selected to the Associated Press Division VII All-Ohio football team, as voted on by a panel of AP sports writers throughout the Buckeye State. Three local programs — Eastern, Southern and South Gallia — competed at the D-7 level this past fall, and none of the three programs ultimately finished with a winning record. Both the Eagles and Rebels finished with a 5-5 overall mark, while the Tornadoes followed up the program’s first playoff appearance with a 4-6 record. Seven of the nine players selected to the All-Ohio squad were special mention choices, with the lone exceptions being a pair of repeat honorees in seniors Ryan Billingsley and Tristen Wolfe. Billingsley — a second team punter a year ago — was named to the third team as a kicker this fall after connecting on 17-of-25 point-after tries. Billingsley also did not have a field goal throughout the course of the season. Wolfe — a special mention choice last fall — was a third team choice as a defensive back after recording 50 tackles, an interception and one tackle for loss. Senior linebacker Paul Ramthun also earned special mention honors for a second consecutive season for the Purple and Gold. Eastern’s three selections were all first-time recipients of All-Ohio honors as seniors Brent Welch and Christian Speelman were chosen for their defensive efforts, while junior Ross Keller was selected for his offensive work on the offensive line. Speelman recorded 83 tackles, five tackles for loss, recovered three fumbles, had two sacks, two interceptions and also scored on a defensive takeaway as a linebacker. Welch had 70 tackles, 10 tackles for loss, five sacks and a fumble recovery at his defensive line spot. Southern senior Tristen Wolfe (3) runs over a Federal Hocking defender during a Week 6 football contest at Roger Lee Adams Memorial Field in Racine, Ohio. South Gallia’s three choices were also first-time honorees to the All-Ohio squad. Senior Aaron Schoolcraft was selected for his efforts on the offensive line and junior Landon Hutchinson also made the list offensively, while senior Dakota Wroten was a defensive choice at the linebacker spot. Hutchison accounted for over 1,600 yards of total offense and 19 touchdowns as a dual-threat quarterback and kick returner, while Wroten recorded 65 tackles, eight tackles for loss, seven sacks, an interception and a fumble recovery. Austin Downs of Trimble, Luke Dillahunt of Troy Christian and Austin Rettig of Arlington were chosen as the D-7 offensive players of the year, while Jacob Kunkler of Maria Stein Marion Local was the lone defensive player of the year selection. Brent Niekamp of Fort Recovery, Eric Meek of Toronto and Terry Holbert of Millersport were the coaches of the year in Division VII.

(AP) — Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley wanted a coach with an offensive track record of success. Foley even agreed to pay extra to get him. After working though a sticky buyout issue, Jim McElwain left Colorado State on Thursday to become Florida’s next head coach. The Gators announced the hiring at the same time McElwain started a team meeting with players and assistants. Reporters heard a loud ovation before McElwain exited the room in tears. McElwain agreed to a six-year deal at Florida that will average $3.5 million annually. He made $1.5 million this season at Colorado State. “Coach McElwain was someone we targeted from the beginning of the search,” Foley said. “The more we worked through the process and did our due diligence, coupled with our meeting and conversations with him and those around him, it was obvious he is the right person to lead the Florida Gator football program.” McElwain accepted the job after working with Colorado State to reduce his $7.5 million buyout. Florida will pay the Rams $3 million over six years. McElwain will pay $2 million over time. The Gators also guaranteed Colorado State $2 million for a game in Gainesville between 2017 and 2020. The Gators traveled to Colorado with the belief that the buyout could and would be whittled down. But Colorado State President Tony Frank initially stood firm on $7.5 million, and the financial roadblock prompted Foley to leave Colorado without an agreement Wednesday. McElwain, his attorney and both schools worked through the night to reach a settlement. McElwain and his family will be introduced at a Saturday news conference in Gainesville. ESPN first reported the hiring. “We wish him well and are confident we can recruit a coach who is committed to a sustained program of excellence at Colorado State over the long term,” Frank said. Florida fired Muschamp on Nov. 16. He agreed to coach the final two regular-season games and finished with a 28-21 record in four seasons. McElwain went 22-16 in three seasons at Colorado State. He was Alabama’s offensive coordinator for four years, helping the Tide win two national titles, before moving to Fort Collins, Colorado. “He has an engaging personality and is someone who can connect with a variety of audiences and he operates with a high level of integrity,” Foley said. “I welcome him and his family to The Gator Nation and I’m looking forward to working alongside him and his staff as they build a championship program both on and off the field.” Not only has the 52-yearold McElwain been a head coach — something Foley wanted after failing with former defensive coordinators Ron Zook and Muschamp — he also has NFL experience, Southeastern Conference ties and familiarity with the state of Florida. Most important is his offensive resume. The Rams rank 13th nationally, averaging 498 yards a game. Badgers From Page 6 “But at the same time, their offense is very similar to every other offense in that they’re going to stick to their bread and butter,” Trotter added. “They might have a couple tricks up their sleeves just because of the new quarterback.” for homecoming INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Trent Richardson remembers the day he walked through the front doors of Cleveland’s training facility for the first time. He was wearing the suit he had on when the Browns called his name with the third pick in the 2012 draft. Pat Shurmur, the head coach of the Browns at the time, met him at the door with a big smile on his face, Richardson recalled. “It was one of those feelings that I didn’t think I would ever be playing with another team,” he said. “I thought I would always be there and it would be the last team I ever played for. But it happened like it happened.” The Colts acquired the running back from the Browns on Sept. 18, 2013, for a first-round draft pick — a move that Richardson said he was “shocked” by. Now he and three other Colts players are headed to Cleveland this Sunday for a game against a team, and franchise, they know well. Return specialist Josh Cribbs, who joined the Colts last month as a free agent, signed with the Browns as an undrafted free agent in 2005. Safety Mike Adams played for the Browns for five seasons and D’Qwell Jackson was drafted by the team in 2006 before he suffered two season-ending injuries. Heck, Colts coach Chuck Pagano’s first four years in the league as an assistant were in Cleveland. Cribbs left Cleveland after the 2012 season with a handful of records, including the all-time franchise leader in kickoff returns, kickoff return yards, and return touchdowns. Jackson is looking forward to the opportunity to face his former team, but says there won’t be any time to spend with friends and former teammates. Aranda was preparing for perhaps more misdirection than what Ohio State has so far shown. Maybe more two tight-end sets to provide maximum protection for Jones, 60528778 “Why I love my career in advertising... Every day brings a different challenge and opportunity.

And that quarterback run isn’t going away, though it might take on a different look with the 6-foot-5, 250-pound Jones carrying the ball instead of the 6-1, 222-pound Barrett. “The first thing that strikes you is his size,” Aranda said about Jones. “One of their top plays is the quarterback sweep, and he’s awfully good at it. … He lowers his shoulder, runs over guys, runs around guys.” The Buckeyes now have a freshman Stephen Collier, who has never played a snap, backing up Jones. It appears that may not impact how many times quarterback runs will be called on Saturday night with Jones. “We have to win this game. We’re not saving him for next week or the week after. We’re not saving anything,” Meyer said. Neither will the Badgers defense, which has been playing especially well over the last six weeks. Wisconsin’s quick, smart linebacking crew has the capability of keeping Jones and the Ohio State running game in check. Seniors Trotter and Derek Landisch form the experienced core at inside linebacker. Miscellaneous Three Bedroom unfurnished, 2nd floor, townhouse on Court St. Condition excellent. No pets.

Cornerback Denzel Ward will lead Nordonia (14-0) against Cincinnati LaSalle (13-1) in the Division II state championship game at 8 p.m. tonight. Ward has nine interceptions this season. Cleveland Benedictine (13-1), with OSU commitment linebacker Jerome Baker, will play Kettering Alter (140) at 10 a.m. today in the Division IV championship game. In Division III, The Plains Athens (140), led by quarterback Joey Burrow, played Toledo Central Catholic (12-2) Thursday. Burrow has 57 touchdown passes and one interception this season. Cleveland St. Ignatius’ Liam Eichenberg, a 4-star offensive tackle in the 2016 recruiting class, was among many recruits in attendance when Ohio State beat Michigan last Saturday at Ohio Stadium. Ohio State and Notre Dame are regarded as the leading competitors to get Eichenberg’s name on a national letter of intent in 2016. Don Speck | The Lima News Ohio State linebacker Darron Lee (43) reacts after scoring a touchdown after picking up a fumble by Michigan quarterack Devin Gardner during OSU’s 42-28 win over the Wolverines last Saturday in Ohio Stadium. < QUARTERBACKS With J.T. Barrett at quarterback, that position was one of Ohio State’s biggest strengths. With inexperienced Cardale Jones there, it is one of the Buckeyes’ biggest question marks. It took Barrett until his third game to feel comfortable. Jones doesn’t have that kind of time. Wisconsin’s Joel Stave (1,042 yards passing) has regained his starting job after losing it, then losing his confidence in making even the simplest throws early this season. Tanner McEvoy (709 yards passing, 572 yards rushing) also plays and is an option threat. Advantage: Wisconsin Say What? “He’s a hard worker, he’s a hard-nosed competitor straight up.” — Ohio State safety Vonn Bell about quarterback Cardale Jones. < RUNNING BACKS Ezekiel Elliott (1,182 yards rushing) becomes more important to OSU’s offense with Barrett out. Elliott has rushed for more than 100 yards six times this season. Melvin Gordon (2,260 yards, 26 TDs) leads the nation in rushing and has gained more than 200 yards five times. Gordon ran for 408 yards against Nebraska. Corey Clement (830 yards, 7 TDs) would be a No. 1 back at many other schools. Advantage: Wisconsin Buckeye Brain Busters 1.

Alex Erickson (44 catches, 651 yards) has taken over the Jared Abbrederis role as the main receiver for Wisconsin. Tight end Sam Arneson (25 catches, 331 yards) is a solid No. 2. Advantage: Ohio State < OFFENSIVE LINE A year ago, Pat Elflein got his first career start in the Big Ten championship game. This year he goes into the title game as a firstteam All-Big Ten selection. Taylor Decker, the only returning offensive line starter, was second-team All-Big Ten. Rob Havenstine, a 6-foot, 8-inch, 333-pound threeyear starter at tackle, leads Wisconsin. He was a firstteam All-Big Ten selection, along with guard Kyle Costigan. The Badgers have allowed only nine sacks. Advantage: Wisconsin < DEFENSIVE LINE Ohio State leads the Big Ten in sacks as a team (37) but is not as strong against the run. Joey Bosa has a Big Ten best 13.5 sacks.

First-team All-Big Ten selection Derek Landisch (14.5 tackles for losses, 8 sacks) and second-team AllBig Ten choice Vince Biegel (15.5 tackles, 7.5 sacks) lead Wisconsin’s linebackers. Marcus Trotter has 10 tackles for losses. Advantage: Wisconsin < DEFENSIVE BACKS Cornerback Doran Grant grabbed one of the first-team All-Big Ten spots.

Advantage: Ohio State < SPECIAL TEAMS Sean Nuernberger (10 of 16 on field goals) has attempted only one kick in the last two games and missed that one from 46 yards.

Promotional Packages Starting At COLUMBUS – Offensive tackle Taylor Decker remembers what Cardale Jones did last year in Ohio State’s walk through the day before the Big Ten championship game with amazement. “He kneeled at the 50-yard line and threw the ball into the end Jim zone,” Decker Naveau said. “It was Columnist insane.” Ohio State is asking for more than eye-popping feats of strength from the 6-foot, 5-inch, 250-pound Jones on Saturday night against Wisconsin in this year’s Big Ten championship game in Indianapolis. Unbelievably, Ohio State has lost two Heisman Trophy candidate starting quarterbacks to injuries this season. First Braxton Miller’s season ended with a preseason shoulder injury. Then J.T. Barrett’s ankle was broken against Michigan last Saturday. Whether Jones can fill the hole left by Barrett’s injury is a big question. Equally big is the question of if the College Football Playoff Committee will think OSU is playoff worthy if it wins. It’s a lot to ask from a third-year sophomore who has thrown 19 passes in his career. But that is 19 more than Barrett had thrown before his first start. Predictably, Ohio State coach Urban Meyer and Jones’ teammates say they are confident he can play well. They say he has grown since achieving unwanted notoriety for a freshman year tweet about not liking to go to class. Recent OSU history says a quarterback’s first start usually is productive but not spectacular. Barrett threw for 226 yards and two touchdowns in his first start. Miller was 5 of 13 for 83 yards and two TDs and rushed for 83 yards his first time as a starter. Terrelle Pryor was 10 of 16 for 139 yards and four touchdowns and rushed for 66 yards in his debut. Troy Smith was 12 of 24 for 161 yards and two touchdowns. Contact Jim Naveau at 419-993-2087 or on Twitter at @Lima_Naveau. WEEKEND SCHEDULE TODAY MAC Championship BGSU-N.
