Maybe this is the spark the Buckeyes needed. Trailing 10-6 starting the third quarter, the Northwestern offense was again on the move converting several third and long plays.
With the Wildcats knocking on the door again, Justin Hilliard who is starting while Baron Browning is out, stepped up and made a spectacular catch for the interception. The turnover couldn’t have come at a better time for Buckeyes who seem to be spinning their wheels on offense.
Hilliard is a great story for the Buckeyes. He’s battled injury after injury during his OSU career, but he’s stayed with it and just keeps working hard to be the best teammate he can.
Watch his touchdown saving interception below.

Hopefully this turns the tide for the Buckeyes in the second half.
