Three key players to watch in Ohio State football vs. Iowa clash
By Ryan Stano
3. TreVeyon Henderson
In this young season, it's clear that Quinshon Judkins is the bigger threat in the run game. He is a bigger home-run hitter than TreVeyon Henderson is. You can just watch the film and look at the stats. That doesn't mean Henderson isn't a good runner. In fact, he's a great runner
Henderson is a strong runner and will certainly be a factor in the ground game. He's still one of the leaders on the offensive side of the ball and can be used in the passing game as well. One of the biggest things that Henderson brings to the table is his pass protection.
Henderson had two ridiculously awesome blitz pickups. On both the fourth-down touchdown pass from Devin Brown to Jeremiah Smith and the fourth-down touchdown, he picked up guys who were going to crush Will Howard. They were two of the best blitz pickups someone has had all season.
What he has been able to do to protect Howard is extremely valuable. He's going to have to do that again in this game because Iowa's defense is extremely tough to go against. They are a top-20 defense for a reason.
These three players will determine the result of this game. It's going to be a fascinating game.
