COLUMBUS — Running back Dallan Hayden rushed for 101 yards after contact while helping Ohio State escape Maryland with a second-half comeback victory in Week 12 last season. That means that 69.2% of his rushing yards in his breakout, three-touchdown performance versus the Terrapins came after contact.
