Social media reacts to TreVeyon Henderson’s career-long touchdown run. #GoBucks
Since coming back from injury a few weeks ago, TreVeyon Henderson has given the Ohio State offense some kind of spark. Henderson continued bringing explosive energy today with his second touchdown as he raced 75 yards for the score early in the third quarter.
On the opening play to begin the second half, Henderson saw his hole close up and quickly bounced it outside where he found a seam and was off to the races. One of the fastest players in all of college football, Minnesota would not come close to catching Henderson as he separated from the defense while recording his career-long run.
As you might expect, social media had some things to say after witnessing the long run. Let’s check in with some of the best reactions.
Social media was in a celebratory mood after Ohio State struck first vs. Minnesota via a TreVeyon Henderson scamper. #GoBucks
The Buckeyes are off to a great start against Minnesota as a nine-yard touchdown run from Treveyon Henderson has put Ohio State up 7-0 early against on.
After a three and out from the Golden Gophers on their opening drive, the Buckeyes marched down the field in eight plays covering 85 yards to notch the first score of the game.
The drive included a heavy dose of Henderson throughout as the star running back ran the ball four times for 35 yards and had one catch for 13 yards.
Cade Stover and Chip Trayanum were also featured on the drive. A first down catch from Stover and two good runs by Trayanum put the Buckeyes in the red zone where Henderson was able to find pay dirt from nine yards out. What did X, formerly known as Twitter, think about it?
We have the some of the best reactions to share as Ohio State tries to get rolling in the ‘Shoe.
Here’s how to find and watch the game between Ohio State and Rutgers Saturday. #GoBucks
The Ohio State football team returns to the ‘Shoe to host a Michigan State team that’s trying to finish the season with some sort of pride. The Spartans have had a challenging year on and off the field and have just one win in Big Ten play.
However, that win came last week against a Nebraska team that’s been playing pretty well. Can the Spartans put up a fight in Columbus against the No. 1 team in the College Football Playoff rankings? It’ll be an uphill climb, but that’s why they play the games.
If you landed here, there’s a good chance you are an OSU fan looking for information on how to find the game and tune in, and if so, you’re in luck because that’s exactly what we have for you, including some key players to watch.
TreVeyon Henderson, Running Back – The Ohio State dynamic running back is a difference maker for this offense. Sure, we are looking for Kyle McCord to show us he is making strides as we head to the Michigan game, but Henderson gives the Buckeyes the balance they need to be able to operate in other area, plus he provides that home run ability in the ground game.

Nathan Carter, Running Back – From one back to another, the Michigan State back has to be able to get some yards on first and second down to not put a young quarterback in obvious passing situations against one of the best defenses in the country. He hasn’t taken over games too often in 2023, but the Spartans will need him to in this one.
2023 stats

19 receptions for 98 yards (5.2 avg.)

What is still going on in your Buckeye brain after the Rutgers win? #GoBucks
It was another four quarter battle for [autotag]Ohio State football[/autotag], but like every other contest this season, the Buckeyes managed to come out on top, defeating host Rutgers, 35-16.
Running back TreVeyon Henderson was the hero, for the second week in-a-row he accounted for over 200 yards from scrimmage — finding the end zone once. More on him in a bit.
Wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. caught only four passes, but two of them went for scores. More on him in a bit also. The Buckeye defense gave up its second-highest point total of the season, but as you will find out, it wasn’t as bad as you’d think.
As I do every Sunday following an Ohio State game, there are still plenty of Buckeye thoughts running through my mind. Here they are.
Who earned their helmet stickers for the Bucks this weekend? #GoBucks
[autotag]Ohio State football[/autotag] went on the road and got a very solid win against a surprisingly tough Rutgers team, 35-16.
It wasn’t as easy as the score would indicate, the Buckeyes pulled away late as the Scarlet Knights just wouldn’t go away. The home team held a lead at the half, 9-7, the first time all season that Ohio State trailed after 30 minutes.
Just as the fourth quarter started, the Buckeyes saw their lead dwindle to just 5 points, before scoring two touchdowns to seal the game.
There were more than a few Ohio State football players that earned Buckeyes leaves for their performances today. Find out below which of them, in my eyes, did just that.
The Scarlet Knights were within five points early in the fourth quarter, before the Buckeyes scored two unanswered touchdowns to seal the deal. The top offensive options came up clutch for Ohio State, while the defense once again put up point to help the cause.
It was another game where the Buckeyes has plenty of good, 5-stars, and bad, 1-star. Find out below which players and units earned those designations today in Ohio State’s win on the road against Rutgers.
Social media reacts to TreVeyon Henderson Touchdown vs. Rutgers #GoBucks
The [autotag]Ohio State football[/autotag] team is currently defeating the Rutgers Scarlet Knights to the tune of 21-9 with some time left in the third quarter and the most recent touchdown was courtesy of an impressive rushing touchdown by [autotag]TreVeyon Henderson[/autotag].
It is pretty obvious how much of a game-changer Henderson is and watching him work while healthy is awe-inspiring. Henderson currently has 15 carries for 84 yards and a touchdown. Henderson has also added another 15 yards receiving to his total.
Although the Buckeyes have had an extremely frustrating slow start, they seem to be slowly taking control of the game and Henderson’s day doesn’t appear to be done.
Here’s how to find and watch the game between Ohio State and Rutgers Saturday. #GoBucks
The Ohio State football team stays on the road for the second straight game when it travels to Piscataway, New Jersey, to take on a 6-2 Rutgers team that looks like a more formidable foe than what we’ve seen during the past few seasons.
If the Buckeyes want to stay on the path to some pretty special things, it can’t overlook any opponent, especially one that plays really good defense and has a quarterback that can cause some issues as a dual-threat. It’s another early affair this week, and if you’ve landed here, there’s a good chance you are looking for information on how to find and watch the Buckeyes take on the Scarlet Knights.
Here’s everything you need to know, including some key players.
TreVeyon Henderson, Running Back – It’ll be the second game back for the OSU running back, and his presence makes the offense a much more balanced and dangerous one. Ohio State needs its defense to play a complimentary style with the offense and that’ll mean a solid running game on the road in some weather that’s beginning to turn colder.
2023 stats
68 carries for 457 yards (6.7 avg.), 6 TDs
7 receptions for 90 yards (12.9 avg.)

Gavin Wimsatt, Quarterback – If you haven’t watched Rutgers much this season, you’re going to be impressed with the athletic ability of Wimsatt. He’s not the greatest passer, but solid enough. Where he can really frustrate defenses is with his ability to keep plays alive and move the chains on the ground. The Ohio State defense will need to contain him on key downs to get off the field.
2023 stats
91-of-181 (50.3%) for 1,134 yards (6.3 avg.), 7 TDs, 4 INTs
73 rushes for 362 yards (5.0 avg.), 7 TDs

Was this the hit TreVeyon Henderson referred to as a ‘cheap shot?’
If you listened to [autotag]Ohio State football[/autotag] running back [autotag]TreVeyon Henderson[/autotag]’s interview following this weekend’s win over Wisconsin, he mentioned he took a cheap shot against Notre Dame.
Thankfully, internet sleuths went back and may have found the play Henderson was referring to. The clip was found by [autotag]Josh Poloha[/autotag] of Eleven Warriors, and he believes it was this hit that the Buckeye took against Irish linebacker [autotag]Marist Liufau[/autotag].
It’s almost impossible to know if this was really the hit that Henderson mentions, but it is a viscous one nonetheless. You be the judge, take a look at the video shared on X, the website formerly known as Twitter.
After Ohio State beat Wisconsin Saturday night, TreVeyon Henderson said that he “took a cheap shot at the beginning of the Notre Dame game.”
It appears linebacker Marist Liufau took an unnecessary shot at Henderson’s ribs when he was already being taken down to the ground. pic.twitter.com/mZXzQBWbVF

The offensive performance drew criticism from fans as the Buckeyes struggled to finish drives and turned the ball over three times. However, on the back of another strong performance from the defense they did enough to pick up the victory.
Marvin Harrison Jr. showed yet again why he’s one of the best players in college football as he went over 100 yards for the fourth straight game and sixth time this season.
Treveyon Henderson returned after missing the last three games with injury and was one of the stars of the game as he rushed for 162 yards and added 45 yards receiving the ball out of the backfield.
