Logs best game of the year McCord completed 24 of 31 passes for 335 yards and three touchdowns during Saturday's 38-3 victory over Michigan State. Impact McCord made the most of this outing against what could likely be Ohio State's weakest conference opponent this season, logging career highs in completions, passing yards, and passing touchdowns. The sophomore signal-caller has had his struggles this season, but he's now completed over 73 percent of his passes in back-to-back games. The continued presence of star wideout Marvin Harrison, seven catches, 149 yards, two touchdowns) and reliable tight end Cade Stover (seven receptions, 79 yards, one touchdown) has buoyed McCord's production throughout the season. The return of standout slot receiver Emeka Egbuka also adds another dimension to the receiving game that should further aid McCord down the stretch of the regular season. Next week's home matchup versus Minnesota should be another easy outing for the Buckeyes before they square off against Michigan in what will be a pivotal matchup in this year's playoff landscape.
