Ohio State's players of the game for its 59-7 win over Akron include a pair of true freshmen.

First-year defensive tackle Tyleik Williams earned defensive player of the game honors for his two-sack performance against the Zips, while freshman punter Jesse Mirco was named special teams player of the game for Saturday's win.

Williams earned the defensive player of the game award after leading the Buckeyes with six total tackles (four solo) against Akron and recording his second and third sacks of the year after notching his first career sack against Tulsa.
