Well, that didn’t take long. After the Ohio State offense got pinned inside its own five-yard line, a balanced dose of running and passing moved the ball in large chunks. TreVeyon Henderson broke a 41-yard run to get the Buckeyes into Red Wolf territory. A few plays later, C.J. Stroud found Marvin Harrison Jr on a crossing route where Harrison did the rest of the work going 42-yards for the score.
The opening drive was a nice mix of the running game which set up some easy pitch and catch plays which saw Stroud complete three of four attempts for 50 yards.
Buckeye Nation is loving the quick score. Here are some of the best reactions from Twitter as Harrison scores his first touchdown of the season, but first we’ll start by showing the TD.
