How It Works
Tennessee Volunteers vs Ohio State Buckeyes — CFP First Round, December 21, 2024
17–42CFP-R1
About This Game
Ohio State arrived in Columbus with redemption on their minds and executed with commanding precision, dismantling Tennessee 42-17 in a College Football Playoff first-round showcase. The Buckeyes struck immediately, scoring touchdowns on three consecutive early possessions to establish a 21-point lead before the first quarter ended. Will Howard orchestrated an efficient offensive attack, connecting twice with freshman Jeremiah Smith in the end zone, while the ground game proved equally relentless with Quinshon Judkins and TreVeyon Henderson each finding paydirt twice. Tennessee's defense was overwhelmed, and despite the Volunteers accumulating 867 yards across 23 drives, they never threatened to control the game. Tennessee managed a field goal and a second-quarter touchdown to temporarily break Ohio State's shutout, but by halftime the deficit had ballooned to 28-10. The second half became a formality. Tennessee's offense completely stalled in the third quarter, forced to punt repeatedly while Ohio State cruised to their fourth unanswered touchdown. A garbage-time Tennessee score in the fourth quarter provided only cosmetic relief. This playoff statement is now immortalized as a Gameprint—custom wall art that visualizes every drive, capturing Ohio State's dominant performance.
Game highlights: Ohio State scores on three consecutive first-quarter drives, Jeremiah Smith's two touchdown receptions, Judkins and Henderson each rush for two TDs, Will Howard's efficient playoff passing, Tennessee's offensive shutdown in the second half
