Ohio State Names Player Of The Game For Win Over Youngstown State

Ohio State has named four Players of the Game for the team’s 35-7 win over Youngstown State on Saturday, including wide receiver Emeka Egbuka on offense, linebacker Tommy Eichenberg and cornerback Denzel Burke on defense and linebacker Cody Simons on special teams.

Egbuka was named Player of the Game for the offense after hauling in five receptions for 94 yards and a touchdown. He was joined on an impressive day for the wide receivers by Marvin Harrison Jr., who had seven receptions for 160 yards and two touchdowns.

On defense, Eichenberg led the way with six tackles and notched one of the teams two sacks, with the other going to defensive tackle Mike Hall Jr. Burke earned Player of the Game status after hauling in just his second career interception, and the first for the cornerback room since 2021.
