Lathan Ransom Blocks Second Punt in As Many Weeks to Set Up A Go-Ahead Touchdown For Ohio State

After blocking a punt in the second half against Indiana last week, the Buckeye safety blocked another after helping the Ohio State defense stop Maryland on its first drive of the second half.

Just like last week, Xavier Johnson recovered the Ransom block, which gave the Buckeyes the ball back deep in Terrapin territory. Trailing Maryland 13-10 at the half, Ohio State retook the lead just two snaps after Ransom's big play as Dallan Hayden ran in an eight-yard touchdown.

That score gave Ohio State a 17-13 after the extra point, with 12:13 still to play in the third quarter.
