Breaking Down Will Howard’s Performance in Ohio State’s Win at Penn State

The bad news: Will Howard had his worst game of the season.

The good news: Ohio State still came away with a top-five win over Penn State in Happy Valley Saturday afternoon.

After Howard started red-hot in the Buckeyes' previous six games, he did the complete opposite against the Nittany Lions. The quarterback threw a pick-six on his first pass attempt of the game, giving Penn State an early 10-0 lead. But he and the rest of the Buckeyes didn’t flinch, bouncing back to earn a big-time win and keep themselves in contention for the Big Ten title.
