At halftime of yesterday's basketball game between Ohio State and Purdue, the chances of a Buckeye victory weren't looking very promising. Ohio State trailed the Boilermakers by 12 at halftime after shooting a dismal 7 for 26 from the field.

But something changed in the second half. The Buckeyes were able to rally to a 65-61 win and earn a huge Big Ten victory.

The change that was made? Well, it was probably Ohio State quarterback Cardale Jones' move to the student section for the game's second half. According to LanternTV, Jones made the switch at halftime and the Buckeyes never looked back:

Jones seemed to enjoy himself at yesterday's game. Here is a timeline of his experience:

Cardale then expressed his displeasure with the game's officiating.

Things weren't looking good for the Buckeyes, so Cardale offered up his services.

Ohio State started to mount its comeback and the trash talk was back.

Another bad call was then made in Cardale's eyes.

D'Angelo Russell took over the game with 17 second-half points and Ohio State pulled out the win.

Another victory for Cardale Jones. He remains undefeated.
