COLUMBUS — Ohio State escaped Madison, Wisconsin, with its eighth win in tow. The Buckeyes beat the Badgers 24-10 in another low-scoring, defensive slugfest.

The Buckeyes defense was the catalyst yet again with Jack Sawyer, Tommy Eichenberg and Denzel Burke among others all making plays.

Even with a defensive-led charge, the Ohio State offense found ways to put points on the board. Running back TreVeyon Henderson and wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. both found the end zone. Henderson in his first game back since Notre Dame had over 200 all-purpose yards.

While that was Saturday’s action, the Buckeyes of tomorrow also had head-turning performances over the weekend. Lettermen Row breaks those all down.
