Unbelievable game from J.T. Tuimoloau. Talk about rising to the occasion.
Was this the most dominant performance by an Ohio State DE in history?
JT’s final stat line vs Penn State: 6 Tackles, 2 Sacks, 2 TFL, 2 PD, 2 INT, 1 FF, 1 TD
I know I’m missing some, but these are the ones I remember off the top of my head:
2019 Chase Young vs Penn St: 9 Tackles, 4 TFL, 3 Sacks, 2 FF
2019 Chase Young vs Wisconsin: 6 Tackles, 5 TFL, 4 Sacks, 2 FF (These games were back-to-back by the way. Unreal performances)
2017 Nick Bosa vs USC: 2 Tackles, 1.5 TFL, 1.5 Sacks (Stats don’t reflect just how dominant he was in this game. Made him a top 5 pick)
2015 Joey Bosa vs TTUN: 3 Tackles, 1 Sack, 1 TFL, 1 INT, 1 FF (Just abused the skunk weasels all day long)
2015 Steve Miller vs Alabama: 1 INT, 1 TD (Have to include this one)
2014 Joey Bosa vs Penn State: 6 Tackles, 2.5 TFL, 2.5 Sacks (Game winning sack throwing RB straight back into Hackenberg. Glorious.)
2007 Vernon Gholston vs Wisconsin: 4 Tackles, 4 TFL, 4 Sacks (Set single season sack record this year. Stood for 12 years until Chase came along)
2003 Will Smith vs Miami: 8 Tackles, 2 TFL, 1 QBH (Won us a title. Rest in Peace #93)
