UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Sean Clifford’s four turnovers turned into three Ohio State touchdowns as the Buckeyes came from behind in the fourth quarter to beat Penn State 44-31 at Beaver Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
Ohio State (8-0, 5-0 Big Ten) struck first on its opening series with a 38-yard field goal by Noah Ruggles. Clifford then threw a pair of interceptions on back-to-back drives in his fourth start against Ohio State.
The Buckeyes didn’t turn Clifford’s first turnover into points, but they capitalized on his second interception. Ohio State took advantage of great field position, and running back Miyan Williams found the end zone from 4 yards out to put Ohio State ahead 10-0.
