Gabe Powers Fulfills Childhood Dream By Scoring Touchdown in Ohio Stadium, Validating His Continued Push for Playing Time at Linebacker

Gabe Powers has dreamed of scoring a touchdown in Ohio Stadium since he was a little kid. That dream came true in the first game of his redshirt sophomore season as a Buckeye.

On just his second defensive snap of the season – and the 23rd of his entire Ohio State career – Powers made his first career interception by snagging a pass deflected by Eddrick Houston and returning it 29 yards to the end zone for the final touchdown in Ohio State’s 52-6 season-opening win over Akron last weekend.

What a play by Gabe Powers for the @OhioStateFB touchdown.
