Ohio State scored only one touchdown on its first 10 possessions, ran the ball for only 66 yards on 30 carries and had its second-fewest total yards since Ryan Day became head coach against Iowa.
The Buckeyes still scored more points than any other team had ever scored against Iowa in Kirk Ferentz’s 24-year tenure coaching the Hawkeyes. They scored more than twice as many points as any other team had scored against Iowa this season and only five fewer points than the Hawkeyes allowed in their first six games combined. For betting purposes, Ohio State hit the over by itself in its 54-10 win.
