It can be a harrowing experience for some football programs to face powerhouses like Alabama, Georgia, and Ohio State.

It can be a challenge to find chinks in the armor of these teams, and DCs certainly earn their pay when it comes to creating defensive schemes to capitalize on a stellar offense.

Vince Kehres, Toledo DC, knows all too well this situation. His Rockets will face in-state rival Ohio State on Saturday, a school that is almost 3 times the size.

When asked about facing the Buckeyes, Kehres admits that the thought causes anxiety and an upset stomach.

Despite being less than 3 hours apart, the Buckeyes and Rockets have only faced each other 3 times. Ohio State captured the win in all 3 contests.

We’ll see if the late nights and upset stomachs can help Toledo concoct a winning game plan against such a formidable opponent.
