No. 3 Ohio State not only opened B1G play of the 2022 season versus Wisconsin, but it was the Blackout game for the Buckeyes. The players, coaches, and fans of Ohio State came out in all-black as it showcased a marvelous display of apparel. From the warmups, team entrance and the reactions from the fans, the atmosphere has been electric for the home crowd.

Ohio State dominated Wisconsin through the first half of play as the Buckeyes led 31-7. The Buckeyes kicked off their first drive of the second half with an 8-play, 72-yard drive with a 12-yard touchdown pass from quarterback C.J. Stroud to wide receiver Julian Fleming.

Ohio State is looking to win its ninth consecutive game over Wisconsin. This is the first meeting between the two teams since the 2019 B1G Championship Game as Ohio State won that game 34-21.
