In one of the program’s worst bowl performances, the Buckeyes were outhustled, outhit and outplayed in a shocking upset.

The Falcons ripped off 254 yards rushing with their wishbone attack and had nearly a seven-minute edge in time of possession.

Ohio State closed to within 13-11 early in the fourth quarter on Robert Smith’s 29-yard touchdown run. But quarterback Greg Frey suffered three interceptions. The final one went 40 yards back for a score that put the game away.
