Ohio State's first half against Rutgers left a lot to be desired.
But the Buckeyes rebounded with a solid second half en route to a 35-16 win over Rutgers. Ohio State's win improved the program to 10-0 all-time against the Scarlet Knights.
Ohio State running back TreVeyon Henderson led the way offensively, running for 128 yards and one touchdown on 22 carries and adding 80 yards on five receptions as a pass-catcher. Marvin Harrison Jr. – who was held in check, according to his marvelous standards – collected four receptions for 25 yards and two touchdowns. On the other side of the ball, defensive back Jordan Hancock gave the Buckeyes a lift to start the second after he recorded a go-ahead pick-six. He also collected five tackles in the contest.
