Siereveld identifies snap count issues for Ohio State O-line improvement
Summary

Austin Siereveld addressed communication problems on the Ohio State offensive line following their 30-12 loss to USC on November 3. The team committed 11 penalties, three of which were false starts, contributing to their struggles. Siereveld emphasized the need to simplify snap counts and establish a consistent cadence with new quarterback Luke Fahey to enhance performance and protect the quarterback. Fahey's varied snap signals during the game, which included verbal, clap, and silent cadences, led to confusion. The Buckeyes aim to correct these issues before their next matchup.
