COLUMBUS, Ohio — Urban Meyer wants his Ohio State Buckeyes to be more like Texas State.

Yes, Meyer has reason to envy a team that's 3-2 (but still in the mix for the Sun Belt Conference championship!), and preparing for a big Tuesday night showdown against Louisiana-Lafayette.

The Bobcats are the best team in the country when it comes to scoring touchdowns in the red zone.

That used to be Ohio State.

The Buckeyes were among the best in the country the last two years at red zone touchdown percentage — No. 1 in 2012, and No. 2 in 2013 to be exact. It was one of the calling cards of Meyer's teams in his first two years in Columbus. This year, Ohio State is 42nd in that category, behind Texas State, Old Dominion, UTEP, Georgia State and 37 others.
Nice! I'll take the positive exposure.
