This one wouldn't win a beauty contest but big days from the OSU defense and Jeremiah Smith helped the Buckeyes coast to a 34-10 win over Purdue in West Lafayette.
Jeremiah Smith has a career-high 10 catches for 137 yards and a touchdown, Julian Sayin completes 82% of his passes for 303 yards and Isaiah West notches nine carries for 60 yards.
Julian Sayin should remain the frontrunner for the Heisman Trophy for his consistent excellence as he leads the Buckeyes to another dominant win at Purdue.
Julian Sayin and Jeremiah Smith pick each other to win the Heisman Trophy, while Caleb Downs says "they could just give it to Ohio State and name two people as Heisman."
Following a 34-10 win for Ohio State over Purdue, Boilermakers head coach Barry Odom heaped praise on the Buckeyes and Ryan Day for "setting the standard" in the Big Ten.
Ryan Day says Joshua Padilla's injury is not long-term as Ohio State looks for more consistent play from Tegra Tshabola and the right guard position down the stretch.
The Eleven Warriors staff expects a bloodbath in West Lafayette today as everybody not only anticipates an Ohio State win but also a unanimous cover of a nearly 30-point spread.
