Cade Stover continues to establish himself as a playmaker, TreVeyon Henderson and Miyan Williams both top 100 yards and Ryan Day hopes Jaxon Smith-Njigba can return next week.
“There's a lot of things that went into that. A lot of long nights went into something so small and so special like that for me, and I'm just really happy to help the team win,” Stover said when asked about scoring his first two touchdowns as a Buckeye.
Williams was the first of the Buckeye ballcarriers to hit triple digits against the Badgers, reaching 101 yards on what would be his 11th and final carry of the game late in the second quarter. Along the way, Williams scored a pair of 2- and 3-yard touchdowns and had two runs of longer than 20 yards.
It was the fourth time Henderson topped 100 rushing yards and the third time Williams topped 100 rushing yards in their respective Ohio State careers. “TreVeyon and Miyan both have been excellent,” Day said. “TreVeyon’s energy before the game was off the chart. You could just feel it. I mean, I felt it in warmups. I felt it in the locker room. I felt it coming out of the locker room. And then he ran that way. He just ran hard, he ran physical, he ran with energy. And so did Miyan. Miyan ran hard. So I think we’ve got something good going in that room.
