Caffey saw an opportunity to make a big play and he made the most of it. As a freshman running back, Caffey will have to wait until the game is out of hand to get onto the field. When he was on the field, he did not give up on his run and it worked out in his favor.
Caffey went to high school in Ohio and he was a standout running back at Hubbard High School. He rushed for 2,638 yards in his senior year. He hopes to be able to have similar numbers when all is said and done at Ohio State.
Ohio State will take on Wisconsin on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. ET.
