The No. 4 Ohio State Buckeyes battled the No. 9 Penn State Nittany Lions in a clash of Big Ten titans on Saturday night in State College, Penn. Both teams traded blows, but in the end in front of a Beaver Stadium record 110,889, Ohio State survived the White Out. 27-26. A fourth-and-5 stop of the Nittany Lions with 1:16 remaining sealed the win for the Bucks.
Penn State won the coin flip, and elected to receive the ball first. They took nearly five minutes off of the clock behind a combination of passes and rushes from McSorley.
