For three quarters, it was the best of times. The Ohio State Buckeyes cruised out to a 28-3 lead against the Washington Huskies, and seemed to be treading into garbage time for the fourth quarter.
Then the worst of times hit. Huskies quarterback Jake Browning, who played so-so at best for the first 45 minutes, started to believe he was Billy Joe Hobert. For those that don’t know: Hobert guided the Huskies to a 1992 Rose Bowl thumping over Michigan.
A 20-point fourth quarter rally from Washington against the Ohio State defense is something out of a bizarro world.
