Ohio State did not necessarily look as electric as expected in Week 1, but they were sure making up for that in Week 2.

The Buckeye offense got rolling early, shaking off the Week 1 sluggishness. The Buckeyes have scored 20 points or more in 63 straight games and surpassed that in just the first half of the contest against Arkansas State.

The Buckeyes opened up the second half with an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty but quickly righted the ship. Ohio State mounted a quick 1:21 TD drive to put the Buckeyes up 31-9.

Ohio State QB CJ Stroud handed off to TreVeyon Henderson, who then took off on a 23-yard run to the end zone for his second TD of the day.

Watch Henderson stroll into the end zone:

Henderson was Ohio State’s leading rusher last season, and by the looks of things, is well on his way to another title.

It did not take the Buckeyes long to add to the lead with Stroud finding Emeka Egbuka down the middle of the field with a quick-strike touchdown.
