The Ohio State football team looks like it has finally started fast, taking the ball down and scored on its first drive against the Michigan State Spartans and are now leading, 7-0.
The scoring play was a rushing touchdown by the one and only, Marvin Harrison Jr. He scampered for a 19-yard rush, which is interesting considering that those kinds of gadget plays are called with Xavier Johnson in mind, but with Johnson looking slightly hobbled after a carry earlier, that may have opened the door for an opportunity for Harrison to show off his skills and speed as a ball carrier.
It was a fast start, and the kind of one head coach Ryan Day has been pining for. How did social media react to the touchdown? Well, we’re glad you asked because we have some of the best of them for you.

Marvin Harrison Jr. is a beast no matter how he gets the ball.
Heisman Resume
Love that Day is trying to diversify Marv's Heisman credentials with a rushing TD

With this game expected to be a blowout, could it be used as a Heisman stat padding contest?
I prefer Heisman Harrison
Heisman Marv finds the end zone early tonight.
