With 29 seconds left in the second quarter of the Cotton Bowl Classic, Texas<\/a><\/strong> finally found the end zone, evening the score 7-7 against Ohio Stat<\/a><\/strong>e. Alas, head coach Ryan Day<\/a><\/strong> and his Buckeyes didn\u2019t panic.<\/p>\n

Instead of kneeling the ball, Ohio State drew up a beautiful screen pass to running back TreVeyon Henderson<\/a><\/strong>, who took the ball 75 yards to the house. It was a bounce-back moment for Henderson, who\u2019d committed a pivotal unsportsmanlike conduct penalty earlier in the half.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s been around for a long time, so we trust him,\u201d Day said. \u201cHe can\u2019t let his emotions get out of whack right here. We knew this was going to be a battle.

Now, we got to win the middle eight here by coming out with a great drive in the second half.\u201d<\/p>\n
