Dallan Hayden Touted for Leading C.J. Stroud, No. 2 Ohio State to Win vs. Maryland

The Ohio State Buckeyes uncovered a hidden gem Saturday, as true freshman running back Dallan Hayden had a coming-out party during the team's 43-30 win over the Maryland Terrapins at SECU Stadium.

Hayden finished with 146 yards and three touchdowns on 27 carries in a star-making performance. All three of his touchdowns came in the second half to help the No. 2-ranked Buckeyes hold off a late charge from the Terrapins and improve to 11-0 this season.

Ohio State sophomore running back TreVeyon Henderson returned from a two-game absence caused by a foot injury on Saturday, but he didn't quite look like himself and was seen in a walking boot late in the game.
