Rapid Reaction: Buckeyes crush Toledo to cap off nonconference slate
COLUMBUS — Ohio State used a nearly perfect offensive performance to rout in-state foe Toledo on Saturday night in the Horseshoe.
C.J. Stroud connected with Buckeyes for four first-half touchdown passes to put distance between the Buckeyes and the Rockets as Ohio State moved to 3-0 in nonconference play.
Lettermen Row was on site in the Horseshoe to break it all down. Spencer Holbrook and Tim May are breaking down how the Buckeyes were able to use a big offensive performance to take down Toledo and stay perfect with conference play on deck beginning next week.
It wasn’t all perfect, however, as the Buckeyes defense gave up too many big plays to a dynamic Rockets offense. Toledo quarterback Dequan Finn gave the Ohio State defense trouble with his dual-threat ability to throw and run away from Buckeyes defenders. Jim Knowles has a lot to clean up with his defense after Saturday night.
