Justice Hill was let off the leash Saturday.
Hill, OSU’s junior running back, had a season-high 31 touches in the Cowboys’ 48-28 victory against Kansas.
Hill’s 189 yards moved him to eighth all-time in OSU’s career rushing yards list, ahead of Joseph Randle. Depending on touches, Hill might still be a few weeks away from moving ahead of seventh-place Tatum Bell, but if Hill continues to get the ball like he did Saturday, he could start chewing up this list.
