DEFENSIVE STOPS

  • After allowing 186 yards in the first half against Michigan State, Ohio State’s defense gave up just 60 in the second half.
  • The Buckeyes allowed just the one touchdown thanks in part to three first-half red zone stops: a fourth down tackle by Cody Simon at the Ohio State 20 and forced fumbles by Lathan Ransom and Jordan Hancock at the Ohio State 11 and 16 yard lines, respectively.
  • Caleb Downs led the defense with six tackles. Jack Sawyer and Sonny Styles secured the fumble recoveries.
