This was the true beginning of the Luke Fickell era.

Desmond Ridder did not look like a guy making his first college start. 

Luke Fickell sure doesn't coach scared.

Michael Warren led a cadre of young guys who had huge contributions on Saturday.

The way so many young guys came up big is the most important thing to remember about Saturday's win.

At 10-0, I was expecting a 38-10 final score.

There's great value in having a really good punter.

This win felt really, really good. 

The Rose Bowl is an awesome place.
