Ohio State began the season in impressive fashion with a 77-point outburst against the Oregon State Beavers.

The Beavers never stood a chance as the Buckeyes offense was fueled by QB Dwayne Haskins and RB Mike Weber. Weber was particularly impressive with 186 yards rushing and 3 TDs.

On the defensive side of the ball, DE Nick Bosa showed why he is regarded as one of the top NFL prospects in the country. He was too big, too strong, and too fast along the defensive front. Bosa finished the game with two sacks and a fumble recovery for a touchdown.

Following the impressive win, the Ohio State coaching staff named four Players of the Game. Those players were Bosa, Weber, WR Terry McLaurin, and LB Justin Hilliard. Ohio State Football shared the announcement with graphics on Twitter:

11 other Buckeyes also received recognition as “Champions” for their play in the season opener:
