No. 1 Ohio State scored a 35-16 win over Rutgers on Saturday without starting defensive backs Denzel Burke and Lathan Ransom in a game that turned on cornerback Jordan Hancock's 93-yard interception return for a touchdown.

The Buckeyes trailed 9-7 at the half, and Rutgers appeared ready to add to that lead when it took the opening kickoff of the third quarter and drove to the Ohio State 20.

On second down, quarterback Gavin Wimsatt tried to loop at pass around the 5-yard line.
