No. 3 Ohio State worked out enough kinks during its soft nonconference schedule to feel positive going into its Big Ten opener at Michigan State on Saturday in East Lansing, Mich.

The Buckeyes rolled to a 52-6 win over Akron, 56-0 rout of Western Michigan and 49-14 victory over Marshall -- all at home -- while introducing fans to Kansas State transfer quarterback Will Howard and former Ole Miss running back Quinshon Judkins.
