Denzel Ward is viewed as one, if not the top NFL cornerback prospect in the nation, and he showed why in what was likely his final regular-season game.

The lockdown cornerback was lockdown once again on Saturday, leading the Buckeyes with two pass breakups, making things even more difficult for a Michigan passing offense that was already struggling behind quarterback John O'Korn.

It wasn't just his coverage skills on display – Ward was all over the field against the Wolverines, flying to the ball on his way to a team-best 8 total tackles and 7 total tackles.
