THREE KEY STATS: OHIO STATE WINS ON FIRST DOWN AND IN TURNOVER MARGIN, MALIK HOOKER'S RANGE HELPS BUCKEYES TOP NORTHWESTERN

MALIK HOOKER'S 14 TACKLES

The Buckeye defense bent and eventually broke four separate times, allowing lengthy scoring drives of 75, 82, 84 and 60 yards. That ate away the clock, as Thorson connected with Carr to move the chains on a pair of 4th down conversions and eight 3rd down conversions.

But on the drives the Buckeyes did force punts or short field goals, Malik Hooker's presence and closing speed were apparent. The star safety slashed at ballcarriers on multiple occasions to stop them at the line of scrimmage or for a short gain.

His 14 tackles easily led both teams—no other player had more than nine. The Buckeyes needed every single one of them.

This thread was in the second page!!! :mad1:

I believe Hooker just broke the record for interceptions by a Buckeye player in a single season. He has four this season so far. With two returned for a TD, which might also be a single season record as well... Not sure about this though.

Hooker has been phenomenal - but has quite a ways to go if he wants to break the single season record! Mike Sensibaugh and Craig Cassady have the record of 9 for a season but I have no clue on the INT TD's....all I know is, everytime Hooker gets an INT I expect him to take it to the house....I'll bet he gets one more this year.

Mock draft's already have him going in the top 15.....this kid is blowing up!
