Count TreVeyon Henderson among a litany of Ohio State players with memorable first-half performances against Oregon in the College Football Playoff quarterfinals.

With the Buckeyes already leading 24-0 in the second quarter against the Ducks, Henderson took a handoff on a counter play, made a defender miss in the backfield, a second one miss near the numbers and showed off both his burst and top-end speed on a 66-yard touchdown run.

The jaunt set an Ohio State Rose Bowl record for longest run, placing the Buckeyes ahead 31-0 with 8:47 remaining in the first half.

It was just Henderson's second carry of the day and continued an explosive College Football Playoff run for the running back. He rattled off two touchdowns of more than 20 yards in a 10-carry, 80-yard day against Tennessee in the first round.

Ohio State closed the first half with a 34-8 lead over Oregon.
