In the season's first noon game, the Buckeyes faced a plucky Arkansas State team. Unlike Notre Dame, Texas A&M and Nebraska, Ohio State was able to defeat its Sun Belt Conference opponent, 45-12, and remain undefeated against the spoiler conference.
With the game in hand by the fourth quarter, 11 members of Ohio State’s 2022 class saw the field against the Red Wolves with nine players making their Ohio State debuts.
