Dallan Hayden's big day in relief of TreVeyon Henderson helps Ohio State overcome self-inflicted wounds and a game Maryland squad in a 43-30 win over the Terps.
No. 2 Ohio State looked ordinary to flat out bad during large stretches for the third-straight time during a road contest but the Buckeyes also found a way to win, mostly due to freshman reserve running back Dallan Hayden in aSelf-inflicted wounds in the form of 11 penalties and not having the right personnel on the field causing a three-point swing by way of a missed extra point returned for a two-point defensive score were problematic.
Following one carry for three yards in the first half, Hayden came up huge in the second half rushing for 143 yards on 5.5 a pop with three crucial touchdowns. Unless Miyan Williams is deemed 100% healthy for next Saturday, I would give Hayden first crack at the Wolverines. It's going to be a fistfight and Hayden seems unafraid of such a scenario.Usually the ugliest flag on display when any team plays Maryland is on the Terps' helmets. Yesterday however, the ugliest flags were the 11 penalties Ohio State racked up, costing it 97 yards.
Eleven penalties next week likely won't cut it so Buckeye fans should hope today's extra conditioning, for both the coaches and players, does the trick.After posting just four catches for 44 yards over his two previous outings, wide receiver Emeka Egbuka bounced back to lead Ohio State in receiving yesterday with six grabs for 82 yards.
All six of Egbuka's catches gave Ohio State first downs with four of those coming on third down during a clutch performance.
