Davison Igbinosun had just gotten toasted.

With less than 20 seconds to play in a first half where Ohio State could have been up two scores if not for a fumble at the 1-yard line by Will Howard, the Buckeyes' cornerback held only to allow a big catch down to the OSU 3-yard line from Penn State wide receiver Harrison Wallace III.

Penn State quarterback went straight back to Wallace the next play, but this time, Igbinosun stole the ball from Wallace's hands and tapped his right foot down for a touchdown to maintain a 14-10 halftime lead for the Buckeyes.

Referees initially ruled the pass incomplete, but a lengthy review overturned the call to an interception and touchback. Igbinosun hit the trademark celebration of famous soccer player Ronaldo after getting word from the officials.

In his second year starting at Ohio State after transferring from Ole Miss, Igbinosun entered Saturday with 20 tackles, two tackles for loss, an interception and two pass breakups. The pick against Penn State gave him two for the year.
