WATCH: Jerron Cage with the scope and score against Penn State right before half

Watch defensive tackle Jerron Cage rumble for a scoop and score right before halftime. #GoBucks

On an all-scarlet night in the ‘Shoe, Ohio State has struggled just a tad against Penn State. The Nittany Lions are the best team OSU has seen since week 2 when Oregon came to town and it is showing.

After a long scoring strike to Chris Olave to give the Buckeyes the lead, the defense came right back and forced a turnover. Tyreke Smith and Zach Harrison sandwiched Penn State quarterback Sean Clifford popping the ball loose. Defensive lineman Jerron Cage scooped it up like a ribeye steak and carried it to the house.

Watch the big man rumble for 57-yards and the score to put the Buckeyes by two scores.

Get that man some oxygen!

The Buckeyes will need to make a few adjustments at halftime and clean up some sloppy penalties. The Bucks lead 17-10 with Penn State getting the ball to begin the second half.
