COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Ohio State coach Urban Meyer admittedly worries about everything, and near the top of the list this week is how the Buckeyes are going to run the ball Saturday against Oklahomas huge and experienced defensive front.After breaking school records for offense in its first game, No. 3 Ohio State (2-0) started slow last week against Tulsa and didnt get the train back on the tracks until the second half. Meyer knows the Buckeyes cant afford a slow start against the No. 14 Sooners, especially when it comes to establishing the run against their heavy, run-stuffing defensive linemen Charles Walker (6-foot-2, 304 pounds), Jordan Wade (63, 311) and Matt Dimon (62, 270).You have to be really on your target to run the football on them, Meyer said. Theyre big, gigantic guys inside. Very similar to Alabama defensive line. And obviously skilled secondaries. So I just think theyre the whole package.Ohio State redshirt freshman tailback Mike Weber has shown signs of brilliance in the first two games of his career, piling up 136 yards on 19 carries against Bowling Green and 92 yards on 17 carries in the victory over Tulsa. H-backs Curtis Samuel -- perhaps the most valuable offensive player for Ohio State through two games -- and Dontre Wilson also will test the Oklahoma front, not to mention fleet, slippery quarterback J.T. Barrett.Im not worried by any means, center Pat Elflein said of the offensive line establishing the ground game. We had a lot of stuff thrown at us (defensively) last week, and I think it was good to get some experience with that stuff. So Im sure Oklahoma will see that, too, try to throw some of that stuff at us and catch us off balance a little bit. I think it was good we saw all that with how young we are.Of the Sooners defensive front, Elflein said: Theyre big, theyre good with their hands, they play hard. Big strong dudes in there.Ohio State defensive coordinator Greg Schiano said the real season starts Saturday.This is definitely a step up in athleticism were going against, Schiano said. Its no disrespect to the first two teams, this is big boy football now.Elflein said preparations already feel different.Youve always looked ahead to this game, he said. Youve seen it on the schedule, and now its here. We know what the task is, and we know were going down there at night, a big-time showdown, so its a different feeling for sure.INJURY REPORT: Meyer said linebacker Dante Booker, who injured a knee in the Bowling Green game, is probable for Oklahoma. He didnt play against Tulsa.DEFENSIVE BACKS ON THE RISE:Cornerback Marshon Lattimore was named the national Walter Camp Defensive Player of the Week for his performance against Tulsa. He intercepted two passes, including a 40-yard return for a touchdown with 33 seconds left in the first half to make it 20-3 and give the Buckeyes some breathing room going into halftime. Safety Malik Hooker leads the FBS with three interceptions. He also had a pick six last week.THE OHIO STATE CONNECTION:Meyer said hes already talked to Tom Herman, the former Ohio State offensive coordinator whos now the Houston coach, about how to attack Oklahoma. Hermans Cougars upset the Sooners in the opening week, 33-23. The loss dropped Oklahoma out of the top 10. Meyer said the discussions centered on Oklahomas defensive personnel.---Online: AP College Football website www.collegefootball.ap.org---Follow Mitch Stacy at http://twitter.com/mitchstacy .

It will be raining fillies. Good fillies, too. The best on both coasts, the stars of tomorrow, and the bedrock of the breed for years to come.At least, that is how this corner prefers to enjoy the twin tests at Saratoga and Del Mar on Saturday, when the Spinaway Stakes will be presented for the 125th time (not a typo) and the 66th running of the Del Mar Debutante will follow a few hours later.Do anything 124 times, and youre bound to get it right. The Spinaway has survived the ebb and flow of depression, recession, wartime racing, and a ban on the sport entirely. Most of the names have faded into the mists of memory, although any other race would kill for a history that included winners like Miss Woodford, Maskette, Top Flight, Cicada, Ruffian, Before Dawn, Meadow Star, Ashado, and Rachels Valentina, the daughter of Rachel Alexandra who provided the 2015 running with an emotional high.The Del Mar Debutante was conceived in 1951 and came of age with such early winners as Miss Todd, Darling June, and Admirably. Since the 1970s, the Debutante has been won by marquee fillies who went on to make an impact on the national stage, including Windys Daughter, Terlingua, Landaluce, Sardula, Sharp Cat, Halfbridled, and last years winner, Songbird.Both the Spinaway and Debutante are at seven furlongs, and the purses are similar. Likewise whats at stake. The early careers of 2-year-olds are compressed into a few desperately significant starts, and things get very serious in September as the Breeders Cup approaches.Four of the seven fillies in the Debutante were purchased last spring at 2-year-old sales, while two were bred by their owners, including American Cleopatra, American Pharoahs little sister.The seven in the Spinaway include fillies bought as yearlings for $825,000 (Pretty City Dancer), $750,000 (Sweet Loretta), and $450,000 (Cherry Lodge). The meter is running.Dennis Farkas purchased Fun from her breeder, Peter Blum, and so far, the daughter of Harlans Holiday, out of an Empire Maker mare, has made good on her name. Fun won a 5-1/2-furlong maiden race at Churchill Downs in June, then finished second to Sweet Loretta in the six-furlong Schuylerville Stakes at Saratoga.I dont think Im even at the right distance yet, said Funs trainer, Ian Wilkes. I think seven-eighths is still too short for her. When I get to a mile and a sixteenth, I think Ill be okay. But this is a nice progression for her.On the numbers, the Todd Pletcher-trained Cherry Lodge towers over her Spinaway opposition after a highly rated debut win Aug. 7. Wilkess tries to keep such early 2-year-old evaluations in perspective.ddddddddddddYou have to look at the numbers, Wilkes said. But youve got to know your trainers, too. Which ones have their horses at their very best for their first run? Are they going to get better after that?Fun has done nothing to discourage Wilkes since the Schuylerville.Shes always come along steady, the trainer said. But since that last race, shes trained better than Ive ever seen her train. Based on what Ive seen so far, I think shes well named.Out West, trainer Pete Eurton is anxious to see what Champagne Room can do in the Debutante against not only American Cleopatra but also the impressive maiden winners Morganite (by Gemologist) and Noted and Quoted (by The Factor).Champagne Room, a daughter of Broken Vow, finished second in a maiden race early in the Del Mar meet, then jumped right into the Sorrento Stakes three weeks later. Her 1-1/4-length win going 6-1/2 furlongs that day put her in a local class all her own.At 2, I dont really think they have an edge as a stakes winner at this time of year, Eurton noted. Theyre all very young, and therell be a lot of learning going on over the next months. Im glad Ive got the stakes win, but I think the 6-1/2 furlongs shes got under her belt is more important to me than anything.Champagne Room has been touting Eurton with fast works and precocious behavior since the Sorrento.Shes high as a Georgia pine right now, Eurton said. She gets excited like a young kid, but she doesnt sweat. Weve taken her to the paddock a lot, to the gate a lot. Its like shes really enjoying herself.Champagne Room is a big girl, topping 16-1 hands and very long to Eurtons eye. Similar to the pedigree of Fun, Champagne Rooms blood seems to cry out for a mile or more through her grandsires, Unbridled and Bernstein.I like to think of her as a 2-year-old version of Beholder, Eurton said. Not thats shes as good as Beholder. But that is our benchmark.The Del Mar Debutante was Eurtons first major win in 2011 with the Sunriver filly Weemissfrankie. She went on to take the Oak Leaf Stakes (now called the Chandelier) at Santa Anita and finish third to My Miss Aurelia in the Breeders Cup Juvenile Fillies. Some of the same people who owned Weemissfrankie are in the Champagne Room partnership.Its those three Grade 1 races I have in my sights for her, Eurton said, so well take them one at a time, starting on Saturday.
