Former Santa Clara standout Christoph Tilly, a top-10 center in the transfer portal, commits to Ohio State.
Northwestern never had an answer.
Trey Sermon got rolling in Saturday's Big Ten championship game and in the final moments broke the single-game Ohio State rushing mark set by Eddie George 25 years ago.
Sermon, in the performance of a lifetime, recorded 331 rushing yards on 29 carries for an average of 11.4 yards per rush. He scored both of Ohio State's touchdowns in the 22-10 win to give his team a Big Ten title.
@treyera Congratulations on breaking the single-game rushing record!! Eat, young man, Eat!!!

To put Sermon's out-of-nowhere performance into perspective, he had accumulated 344 rushing yards across the prior five games.
Previously, George's record was 314 rushing yards against Illinois in 1995.
