Third Down Efficiency, Secondary Shines, and Line of Scrimmage Domination
After the first 15 minutes, Ohio State looked vulnerable.
It was just a field-goal game and Sparty's defense looked as good as advertised, stopping the Buckeyes twice outside the red zone. As the game progressed, however, the Buckeyes started to get more comfortable and ran away with the game, winning 34-10.
In the first ranked matchup of the season, Ohio State's efficiency on third-down, the performance of the secondary, and its advantage in the running game all played a key part in the victory.
The Offense is Best on Third-Down
