When previewing this Rose Bowl game, Ohio State quarterback Will Howard admits that the way that game ended vs. Oregon still gives him nightmares.

But it’s how the game ended that haunts Ohio State quarterback Will Howard. The Buckeyes were driving to get into field goal position and with six seconds left, Howard went back to pass, couldn’t find an open receiver and instead of throwing the ball away or running out of bounds to stop the clock, he scrambled up the middle of the field.

Ohio State's defense has been formidable all season and is eager to avenge its performance during a one-point loss to Oregon earlier this season.
