A thrilling 65-yard catch-and-run epitomizes the explosion Ohio State gains at running back when it has a healthy TreVeyon Henderson.
One of the gorgeous aspects of sports is that a viewer’s emotions can swing several times in a single sequence or play.
That’s why hope turned into relief when Henderson dipped his shoulder inside, then cut outside to wheel around Rutgers linebacker Daniel Djabome toward the sideline and pick up what looked like a solid 20-or-so-yard gain and keep the drive alive. He scored Ohio State’s next offensive touchdown himself – a 9-yard rumble in which he broke three tackles – after another 35:56 of game time had passed to extend the Buckeyes' lead to 21-9.Henderson's electrifying 65-yard catch-and-dash came on the team's following possession, setting up a 4-yard touchdown pass from McCord to Marvin Harrison Jr. to make it a 28-16 Ohio State lead.
"Early on, they weren’t playing us in a two-high shell," Day said."They dropped the safeties really deep and put clouds on both sides to take that part away. We recognized that at halftime and said, 'We’ve got to be patient enough to run the ball all the way down the field.'"
