Buckeyes Dominate Season Opener | Ohio State Buckeyes Football News

Ohio State crushed Ball State 56-3 in a dominant season opener, honoring legendary coach Jim Tressel with a Ring of Honor induction. Freshman QB Julian Sayin bounced back from a shaky start to throw for three TDs and rush for one, totaling over 320 yards. Jeremiah Smith led the receiving corps with 8 catches for 151 yards and 2 touchdowns. The defense shut down Ball State’s offense, forcing just one field goal before halftime and intercepting a pass that turned into a touchdown. With their 27th straight opening win and 39th in 40 games, Ohio State heads to Austin next week to face No. 5 Texas — a rematch they won last year 14-7.
