The Ohio State football team is facing its first real test of the season as it opens Big Ten play at Michigan State. The Spartans have been playing about as well as they can and cut the lead to just three early in the second half. But the Buckeyes answered by marching down the field to extend the lead back to 10 points.

That was fun, until it wasn't. Michigan State marched right down the field, behind a big run by Nate Carter, and a few nice completions from Aidan Chiles. The Spartans faced a 4th and 1 on the Ohio State 20, and Chiles was stuffed on a QB sneak. Felt like a chance to seize momentum early, but they couldn't capitalize.
