Punter, Bill O’Malley’s kicking leaves a lot to be desired. He cost USC a safety against Ohio State when he could not catch long snapper, Cooper Stehenson’s snap from center. His punting gave Ohio State good field position most of the day. Fortunately, the defense performed well. If Ohio State had won, one of its MVPs would have been its punter who kept USC deep in its territory with his long high punts that were not returned
