Ohio State loses to Clemson in the Fiesta Bowl: 5 things we learned

Ohio State battled through adversity but came up a little short in the 2019 Fiesta Bowl. Here’s five things we learned in heartbreaking fashion.

Is there anyone with more heart than J.K. Dobbins

Ohio State running back J.K. Dobbins was making a very good Clemson defense look foolish in the first half, running for a couple of big gainers and gashing the second level of the Tigers. Then he got banged up late in the second quarter on a carry between the tackles.

He came back with a heavily taped ankle (twice) and was seen hobbling around in-between plays, but man did he gut it out. He knew his team needed him out there, and he had some big plays catching the ball out of the backfield to put the Buckeyes in position to win. He’s a gamer and a warrior on the football field. There’s no other way around it.

He will be missed …
