Will Howard postgame interview | Ohio State vs. Marshall

Quinshon Judkins rushed for 173 yards and two touchdowns, Emeka Egbuka had 117 yards receiving and a TD and No. 3 Ohio State overcame an early push by Marshall to pull away and win 49-14 on Saturday.

TreVeyon Henderson rushed for two touchdowns, freshman Jeremiah Smith had a 53-yard TD catch, and quarterback Will Howard rushed for a 1-yard score. The Buckeyes scored four touchdowns of 40 yards or more.

Takeaways
Marshall: The Thundering Herd were competitive early. They gave Ohio State a game for much of the first half and went into the locker room down 28-14. But they couldn't sustain it in the second half, especially after quarterback Stone Earle left with an injury in the third quarter injury.

Ohio State: The Buckeyes defense gave up a couple of long drives in the first half of their final tune-up game before the Big Ten schedule begins. Their arsenal of offensive weapons was on display, however, and the Herd couldn't keep up.

Key moment
Henderson took a pitch from Howard to the left and broke two tackles on his way to a 40-yard touchdown on Ohio State's first possession of the second half. That pushed the Buckeyes' lead to 35-14. It was all Buckeyes after that.

Key stat
Ohio State had the ball for only 23 minutes, but averaged 10 yards per play — 12.3 through three quarters — to make that irrelevant.

Up next
Marshall hosts Western Michigan, and Ohio State is at Michigan State on Saturday.

I have more faith in Will Howard more than Devin Brown, go Will go Buckeyes wins all

[Beaumo]

Man Will Howard :") Happy he is our QB.. He is right about the Oline, they played on point and were on the second level fast. Offense looked wonderful.. Let it rip can come with some misfires but bouncing back without an issue is the way to handle it and they did. all around

[staceysmith]

Will Howard is a better QB than Kyle McCord

[MrOhioPlayer]

You win 49-10 I dont know whos going to complain?!?!?! This is THEE Ohio state, if it isnt dominant vs a lower tier team you will hear about it.

[bucknutbrutus]

The interception was a good throw, it was a 50/50 ball that the defense won, next time it will be ours! It was not a miss-read or bad throw.

[The.ARCHITCT]

He totally under threw that ball to Smith.

[drnantz]

We need to see Julian Sayin or another back up in mop up time. Devin Brown has had his shots.

[KyleCummings-ul]

If You throw that to Will Johnson, than we’ll lean on the run game

[donniehenry]

What was with the "pause" comment that he said he had to say it? Lol what have i missed?

[tonyc]

This kid better step up soon….we’re going to start playing teams that are going to be a much bigger challenge than our last 3 opponents. So far, this qb is mediocre at best.
