Brooklyn's Finest: Ohio State's Curtis Samuel is Blossoming Into One of College Football's Brightest Stars

Curtis Samuel motioned out of the backfield and lined up in the slot, one-on-one against Bowling Green defensive back Antonyo Sotolongo.

Buckeyes quarterback J.T. Barrett snapped the ball as Samuel exploded off the line of scrimmage. Samuel then hit Sotolongo with a wicked move, faking outside before quickly rerouting inside to leave his defender in the dust. Barrett delivered the ball on target and 79 yards later it was a touchdown for Ohio State.

It was one of many in the Buckeyes' 77-10 season-opening win.

The entire sequence took a little over 10 seconds. Samuel went from running back to wide receiver to the end zone 80 yards away in the time it takes to tie your shoes.
