Ohio State holds steady in Week 12 AP Top 25
COLUMBUS — Ohio State remained No. 3 in the AP Top 25 Sunday. The Buckeyes have been holding steady at that spot the last two weeks despite ranking No. 1 in the first editions of this year’s College Football Playoff Rankings.
No. 1 Georgia (54 first-place votes) and No. 2 Michigan (seven first place-votes) are both still ahead of the Buckeyes.
Ohio State is coming off a 38-3 domination of a three-win Michigan State team. The Buckeyes sprinted out to a 35-3 halftime lead, scoring touchdowns on five of their first six drives before emptying their bench in the second half and letting the youth of their roster get some regular season snaps.
Quarterback Kyle McCord set a career high with 335 passing yards, and he didn’t play in the fourth quarter. All three of his touchdown throws came in the first half, during which he completed 21-of-25 pass attempts. Wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. bolstered his Heisman Trophy resume with three total touchdowns, including his first career rushing score.
