A closer look at Iowa and Ohio State
- IOWA: Ohio native Kaleb Johnson notched his second career 200-yard game (fourth consecutive 100-yard game), finishing with a career-high 206 yards on 21 attempts and three touchdowns in the road win at Minnesota on Sept. 21. Johnson has 12 rushes of 20+ yards and four touchdown runs of 25+ yards this season. The Hawkeyes have forced seven turnovers in four games – five interceptions, two fumble recoveries. The seven takeaways are fifth in the Big Ten and 42nd nationally. Iowa’s offense has committed just two turnovers in 16 quarters this season. Iowa hasn’t committed a turnover since Week 2 against Iowa State. (Iowa sports information)
- OHIO STATE: Offensive coordinator Chip Kelly has provided more than an early jolt to the offense. The Buckeyes are due to face better defenses in the months ahead, but Michigan State was good enough on that side of the ball to have provided a true barometer of progress. Ohio State continues to look better running the ball. The backfield duo of TreVeyon Henderson and Quinshon Judkins averaged 6.8 yards per carry at Michigan State, and the offensive line kept Will Howard from being sacked against a defense that had brought down quarterbacks 15 times in its first four games. The offense has made meaningful strides. (Joey Kaufman, Columbus Dispatch)

CLEVELAND, Ohio — Ohio State’s game-winning play over West Virginia in the second overtime period Saturday night was simple: give the ball to Bruce Thornton and get out of his way.
The result was an 89-88 double overtime win in the Cleveland Hoops Showdown at Rocket Arena.
It took so much to get to this moment.
The Buckeyes did all they could in regulation to overcome a 14-point deficit, while awaiting their top player in Thornton to come through.
His teammates did the dirty work to keep them in the game. From their defense creating transition points, matching the Mountaineers’ physical brand of ball.
Once extra time came after the first 40 minutes expired, Thornton took care of the rest in the two overtime periods.
He delivered bucket after another.
None more important than the final one.
A tightly covered Thornton took it down to the top of the key before finding a mismatch and looking to take it to the hole. A defender cut off his path, however, forcing Thornton to operate elsewhere in the paint.
Thornton used his pivot foot wisely before finding an opening for a fadeaway jumper and knocking it down.
Twelve of his 21 points came in the overtime periods.
Ohio State fought to the end and earned a win over a hard-nosed Big 12 opponent.
Center Christoph Tilly did his best to limit the Mountaineers’ big men, while adding 14 points and 11 boards of his own.
Freshman big man Amare Bynum was a pivotal spark off the bench with 17 points, eight rebounds and three blocks.
Point guard John Mobley Jr. finished with 17 points and delivered the 3-point shot in the final seconds of the second half to give them their first lead since the 9:00 mark of the first half.
