The No. 6 Ohio State Buckeyes (7-1) erased a 15-point second-half deficit Saturday afternoon at Ohio Stadium to stun the second-ranked Penn State Nittany Lions (7-1) 39-38 and shake up the College Football Playoff picture.
The Buckeyes, who narrowed the deficit to five with 4:20 remaining in regulation, secured the signature win with 1:48 left when quarterback J.T. Barrett hit Marcus Baugh for a 16-yard score to go up by one.
Penn State took over with a chance to set up a game-winning field goal, but Ohio State exacted its revenge for last year's heartbreaking loss at Beaver Stadium by forcing a turnover on downs.
