Cardale Jones has started the first three games of the season for Ohio State. 

Will he get a fourth start? 

"Good question. And I don't know that right now," coach Urban Meyer said. "I haven't had time to think about it."

Jones was benched Saturday in the Buckeyes’ 20-13 win against Northern Illinois. He threw two interceptions in the first half before getting pulled. J.T. Barrett went in and didn’t play much better; he completed 11 of 19 passes for 97 yards, one touchdown and one interception. 

After the game, Meyer said it might be time for the Buckeyes to stick with just one quarterback.

The safe money is likely on Barrett starting next week against Western Michigan, but nothing would surprise us.

Quarterback play isn’t Ohio State’s only issue, either.

"Turnovers, if you can't control the line of scrimmage, you're not going to win a big game," Meyer said. "And those two things have to get fixed fast."
