Ohio State Stops Skid With More Broken Records By Jeremiah Smith
Ohio State got back in the win column after dispatching Northwestern. Its slim CFP hopes remain alive with two games left in the regular season.
Ohio State’s College Football Playoff aspirations faced a significant setback after a loss to Oregon. However, a win against Northwestern kept their hopes alive for the Big Ten championship. Devin McCuin and Jeremiah Smith played crucial roles in the win. Smith finished with 11 receptions for 117 yards and a touchdown, setting the all-time career receiving yards record for the Big Ten and only needing to break the Big Ten career receptions mark to do so.
McCuin had a solid game, breaking tackles and contributing to the team's offensive success. Although there were some mistakes, such as a muffed punt and drops, Ohio State's offense and defense performed well overall. The Buckeyes are still a flawed team, but they have a slim chance of advancing to the CFP, provided they continue to improve in the upcoming weeks.
