Things have not come easily for Ohio State so far against Nebraska on the road in Lincoln. The defense is playing well, but the offense has struggled just a little bit against a ‘Husker team that seems to be motivated, physical, and focused.
That all changed in the second quarter though when Ohio State methodically moved the ball down the field after a poor punt by Nebraska’s punter. The Buckeyes got inside the five-yard line after six plays, then quarterback C.J. Stroud rolled out and hit receiver Chris Olave for a 3-yard strike to extend OSU’s lead to 10-0.
Watch the action below as Olave pulls to within just two touchdowns of the all-time career record for the Buckeyes.

Nobody should be surprised that this game has been a donnybrook so far. Nebraska has played every team close, and Ohio State will have to continue to be tough and come out the other side of this one.
