Some pressure lifts from Buckeyes coach Ryan Day, who moves to 6–0 against the Nittany Lions, but the real test against rival Michigan still looms.
The largest crowd in Beaver Stadium history had seen enough, even before all hope had been extinguished. Rivers of white shirts flowed to the exits, as the vast majority of the 111,030 fans felt the familiar sting of scarlet-and-gray defeat sink in. The Ohio State Buckeyes were punching the ball downfield, running out the clock, doing what they always do against the Penn State Nittany Lions.Saturday was its eighth straight in this non-rivalry, and 12th win in the last 13 meetings.
Penn State finally tried plan B at that point. They once again brought Ioane in motion after being split wide, but called a play-action pass in which quarterback Drew Allar appeared to be looking for superstar tight end Tyler Warren in the left flat. The Buckeyes covered that, so he had to redirect and fire into traffic in the direction of backup tight end Khalil Dinkins. The ball landed incomplete, Ohio State took over, and the slow dwindling of the crowd began.
At no point in those final four plays did Warren touch the ball. He’d been used as a wildcat quarterback several times earlier in the game, and the 6' 6", 261-pound behemoth had been effective. He produced 47 yards on three carries, including a 33-yarder that set up the goal-to-go futility. Nor did Penn State insert its more athletic quarterback, Beau Pribula, who can put added stress on a defense with his mobility.
Ohio State secured this must-win game despite some quarterback play that could have been catastrophic. Will Howard delivered Penn State’s only touchdown with a pick-six interception on the Buckeyes’ first possession, putting them in a 10–0 hole and setting the stadium on tilt. Later in the first half, Howard was heading into the end zone for a running touchdown when he was stripped of the ball, which bounced off his knee and out of the end zone for a touchback and a turnover.
Jackson hadn’t played tackle since high school, but the move helped stabilize the situation. Penn State’s terrifying rush end, Abdul Carter, got two sacks but didn’t dominate the game, and Ohio State ran for 176 yards on the day.Fifty-eight of those rushing yards came on the final drive, as the Buckeyes took over at their own 1-yard line and pushed downfield until the clock ran out.
