Call it The Carnell Tate Game™ — or A Carnell Tate Game™, if you prefer.
Through 30 minutes of action, Tate has recorded seven catches for 163 yards and one touchdown.
Tate's still-incomplete performance builds upon a stellar start to the season for the veteran wide receiver, as he entered the Big Ten contest with 15 catches for 252 yards and three touchdowns on the year. Those scores came in three separate contests: Ohio State's victories over Texas, Grambling State and Ohio. Tate was limited — limited for his standards — to four touches for 41 yards in the Buckeyes' win at Washington.
