Ohio State found something against Northwestern, and we still don’t know if Master Teague has cleared concussion protocol. Either way, Sermon showed he’s a difference-maker against a good defense, and OSU will need to be balanced in this one against an athletic Clemson squad.

Look for Sermon to have some running lanes on the ground, and to be present in the passing game out of the backfield. With the aggressive tendencies we’re likely to see from the Tigers, hitting the running back out in the flat is going to be there. Sermon is ready to continue his climb with confidence in this one.

NEXT … Trey Sermon will go for over 150 total yards
