CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) — Julian Sayin passed for two touchdowns, C.J. Donaldson ran for two more scores, and the Ohio State defense forced three turnovers that resulted in 21 points as the No. 1-ranked Buckeyes defeated No. 17 Illinois.
They're certainly further ahead now than they were around 365 days ago, as Ohio State remains unblemished following an easy 34-16 road win against No. 17 Illinois in Week 7. The defense didn't allow a touchdown until the third quarter. Illinois was the first team to score a rushing touchdown against Ohio State in 2025.
