Ryan Day Says Emeka Egbuka is "One Of The Best Receivers In The Country," Carnell Tate Could Have Played if Needed

A few freezing ends to drives in Ohio State's first half only paved the way for a sizzling second half.

After carrying a 7-0 lead into halftime against Iowa, the Buckeyes flew away from the Hawkeyes with a 21-0 outburst in the third quarter, polishing off a 35-7 win from there.

Off a three-touchdown performance from Emeka Egbuka, Ryan Day called the wide receiver one of the nation's best in his postgame press conference. He also felt Ohio State did a great job running the ball and stopping the run, which was a point of emphasis entering the game.
