ohio state came off their previous week's loss to miami with a home game against the colorado buffaloes. for the first time during the season, freshman quarterback braxton miller received the start, only the third time ohio state started a freshman at that position. the second offensive drive of the first quarter saw the buckeyes move the ball 43 yards down the field and score on a jordan hall touchdown run. a drew basil field goal later on in the quarter gave ohio state a 10–0 lead early on in the game. colorado's special teams, as well as the number of penalties which they drew, allowed ohio state to have relatively good field position throughout the game, averaging a start around their 50-yard line. ohio state took advantage of the field position with a touchdown pass from miller to devin smith, giving ohio state a 17–0 lead. colorado eventually drove down the field on their next possession and scored on an 11-yard touchdown reception, narrowing the score to 17–7. a field goal before the end of the half allowed ohio state to go into the locker room with a 20–7 lead. the third quarter saw a back and forth between the both teams, with ohio state still dominating. another miller to smith touchdown reception put ohio state up 27–7, while colorado continued to stay in the game with an oliver field goal. basil would kick a field goal to end the third quarter, as well as starting the fourth, and gave ohio state a 37–10 lead late in the game. a late colorado touchdown was the last score of the game, as the favored buckeyes beat colorado 37–17, rebounding after their previous week's loss to miami, as ohio state moved to 3–1 on the season.
