WATCH: Ohio State DB Ronnie Hickman gets pick six against Akron
The Ohio State defense started the game out slow, but after giving up seven points early in the first quarter, it has come to play. The pressure on the quarterback has been intense, and the latest resulted in a 46-yard pick-six by defensive back Ronnie Hickman.
To be fair, it was a bit of a gift because quarterback D.J. Irons misfired while running for his life. It got tipped by the wide receiver and Hickman the same athletic skills that got him a scholarship at Ohio State to find a way to grab the ball and run it all the way back for a touchdown.
The route appears to be on in Columbus. Ronnie Hickman gets a 46-yard pick six to put OSU up 35-7. #GoBucks https://t.co/GqRerpxY3A
