Ohio State vs. Oregon Game Summary

This game has a lot to unpack but let's start with the ejection early in the second quarter of Traeshon Holden of the Oregon Ducks. He spat on the defender and was ejected as one of the Ducks' top receivers was not on the field for the majority of the game. Before his ejection, Holden had recorded just one catch for 32 yards.

Then we discuss the final play of the game as with a handful of seconds remaining and quarterback Will Howard ran, knowing he had a timeout remaining. However, he took just too long as time expired instead of giving the Buckeyes an opportunity for a game-winning field goal.

Do not expect Ohio State to drop too much in the AP Poll and expect Oregon to jump to the second spot. Let's take a look at the scoring output throughout the game and discuss how things wound up going.
