The Ohio State Buckeyes have started this second half hot and heavy. After a TreVeyon Henderson touchdown on the first drive, the second offensive drive saw C.J. Stroud strike Emeka Egbuka for a beautiful 49-yard touchdown pass.
Ohio State holds a 38-9 lead over the Arkansas State Red Wolves with 10:30 left in the third quarter. We discussed in the first half how the offense hadn’t yet exploded, but it appears they have gone full-blown mushroom cloud here in the second half. Emeka Egbuka has four receptions for 118 yards and a touchdown.
Buckeye Nation is stoked about Egbuka and here are some reactions from Twitter.
The touchdown
Switch with Cade Stover and Emeka Egbuka. Two guys run with Stover. Egbuka is wide open. Cade Stover creates space. I've always said this. pic.twitter.com/IPQhCJMDTZ

A career day
With four catches for 118 yards and a touchdown, Emeka Egbuka is now over 100 receiving yards for the first time in his Ohio State career, joining fellow sophomore wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. with their first 100-yard games as Buckeyes today.
