After facing a 26-14 deficit with just eight minutes to go last week against Penn State, Ohio State engineered a miraculous comeback late in the fourth quarter to beat the Nittany Lions by a point for the second year in a row, 27-26. The win over Penn State gave Ohio State their second victory over a team ranked in the top 15 so far this year. The Buckeyes now are the owners of a 10-game winning streak, which is the second-longest active streak in the nation, behind only defending national champions, the UCF Knights.
A Miles Sanders touchdown run gave the Nittany Lions a 12-point lead with eight minutes to go, but the Buckeyes responded quickly with a three-play, 75-yard drive that was capped off by an incredible effort by Binjimen Victor on a 47-yard touchdown reception.
