Ohio State’s 45-24 win over Northwestern in the Big Ten Championship felt a lot like just about every Ohio State game this year. The Buckeyes let Northwestern stick around for three quarters before stepping on the gas late and pulling away for a win that looks better on paper than on film.
Oh, and when Ohio State needed a spark, Dwayne Haskins rose to the occasion, just as he has all year. When Ohio State needed saving from conservative play calling, Dwayne Haskins was there to save the day. That’s just what Dwayne Haskins does.
