Will Howard and the Ohio State offense has been held in check during the 2nd half of the game vs. Nebraska. Fortunately, the offense woke up in a big way after falling behind 17-14.

The drive that ensued covered 75 yards on 8 plays with Howard getting it done through the air and on the ground. The biggest play of the drive game right out of the gate with a 37-yard connection to Carnell Tate.

Later in the drive, Howard converted a 4th down with a pass to Emeka Egbuka and would finish the possession with 63 total yards of offense. His 10-yard carry gave the Buckeyes a 1st-and-goal before a nice play design with Quinshon Judkins running a route out of the backfield.

That touchdown restores order for the time being and gives Ohio State a 21-17 lead in the 4th. It will not give fans a full sense of relief quite yet, but getting back on top is crucial late in the game.
