The box score shows that the No. 4 Ohio State Buckeyes defeated the No. 15 TCU Horned Frogs by 12 points. That’s a nice margin of victory. However, the box score— and numbers—have a tendency to not tell the whole truth.
With eight minutes left in the third quarter, it appeared that the Buckeyes were deep in upset territory, as they trailed these purple and black horned frogs from Fort Worth by 8 points. Then, the rally happened.
Ohio State’s defense kept them in the game, even after putting them in upset’s way to begin with.
