QUINSHON JUDKINS NEWS

Rushes for 46 yards versus Michigan Judkins had 12 carries for 46 yards during Saturday's 13-10 loss versus Michigan.

Impact Judkins couldn't find a hole in the Wolverines' defensive front which once again caused problems for the Buckeyes' offensive line. The Ole Miss transfer was brought in this offseason to help Ohio State establish a more physical rushing offense, but this clearly fell through as the team put up just 77 rushing yards against its archrival. The junior enjoyed a relatively productive campaign despite often splitting carries with TreVeyon Henderson, as the former led the team with 147 carries for 805 yards and eight touchdowns this regular season. With the Buckeyes eliminated from next week's Big Ten Championship Game, the team will have to wait to find out if it will be picked as an at-large team for the first round of the College Football Playoff.

Michigan vs. Ohio State: Historic Big Ten matchup by the numbers

No. 2 Ohio State hosts Michigan in the 120th edition of "The Game" on Saturday. Here's the storied rivalry by the numbers.

NOVEMBER 27

Stymied in otherwise dominant win Judkins totaled 14 rushes for 36 yards and reeled in all two targets for seven yards during Saturday's 38-15 win against Indiana.

Impact Judkins averaged fewer than 3.0 yards per carry for the second time in the last three weeks. The 219-pound junior has been used as more of a power rushing threat while operating alongside TreVeyon Henderson. Judkins has benefitted with more touchdowns in the red zone than his counterpart this season, but Ohio State's offensive line has recently dealt with injuries and has struggled to generate much push up front in the rushing game all season. Judkins will look to push his way back into the end zone this coming Saturday as the Buckeyes' look to beat their archrival Michigan for the first time since 2019.

NOVEMBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Scores twice in big win Judkins totaled 15 rushes for 76 yards and two touchdowns and caught their only target for eight yards during Saturday's 31-7 win over Northwestern.

Impact Judkins punched in touchdowns from the one-yard line on back-to-back series in the second quarter. While the Buckeyes got out to a slow start, the offense slowly had its way against the overmatched Wildcats leading to Judkins most carries in any game this season. The Ole Miss transfer has now totaled 121 carries for 723 yards and six scores, as he's continuously split carries with TreVeyon Henderson, who logged 11 rushes for 74 yards on Saturday. Judkins and Henderson will both look to make an impact during next week's home game against a 10-0 Indiana team.

NOVEMBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Totals 45 yards in blowout win Judkins compiled 11 rushes for 32 yards and hauled in all two targets for 13 yards during Saturday's 45-0 victory versus Purdue.

Impact Judkins was surprisingly held in check despite a dominant offensive performance for the Buckeyes. The Mississippi transfer was still the team's only back to tally double-digit carries, but senior TreVeyon Henderson was far more productive with 85 yards and a touchdown on six carries. Meanwhile, quarterback Will Howard logged nine carries a one-yard rushing score of his own. The number of mouths to feed in this offense should continue to limit Judkins' workload, but he could be in line for a much more productive outing next week at Northwestern.

NOVEMBER 10 • ROTOWIRE

Leads rushing game versus PSU Judkins compiled 14 rushes for 95 yards and hauled in two of four targets for five yards during Saturday's 20-13 victory over Penn State.

Impact Judkins had his most productive outing since the blowout win versus Marshall in Week 4. The junior running back benefitted from a vastly improved performance for the Buckeyes' offensive line, who performed surprisingly well against the Nittany Lions' stout defensive front. He also led the team in carries and rushing yards ahead of fellow running back TreVeyon Henderon (10, 54) and quarterback Will Howard (12, 24). Judkins will look to break out and find the end zone during what should be an easy win this coming Saturday versus Purdue.

Ohio State's 20-13 win over Penn State, by the numbers

Ohio State beat Penn State for the eighth straight season. Here are the other numbers to know from their rivalry.

NOVEMBER 2

Scores late receiving TD Judkins recorded 10 carries for 29 yards and gathered in their only target for nine yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 21-17 victory versus Nebraska.

Impact Judkins caught a touchdown for the first time this season with a nine-yard reception midway through the fourth quarter. This came after the junior running back's second straight game with under 30 rushing yards despite logging double-digit carries again. Judkins' struggles may have more to do with some struggles in the run-blocking from Ohio State's offense line, as co-starting running back TreVeyon Henderson logged 10 carries for just 25 yards. The Buckeyes not only have had lackluster rushing performances in back-to-back games, but the team features two other significant rushing threats in Henderson and quarterback Will Howard. These factors should continue to limit Judkins' overall fantasy value. Expect these woes to continue during next weeks' road game at Penn State.

OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go vs. Nebraska Judkins (hand) is healthy for Ohio State's clash with Nebraska, per the Big Ten injury report.

Impact This comes as little surprise, as the tailback wasn't expected to miss any time despite undergoing hand surgery. He was considered probable, but he'll now officially suit up against the Huskers. The tailback has ran for 491 yards and six touchdowns this season on 6.9 yards-per-carry.

OCTOBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Not expected to be out post-surgery Judkins is not expected to be out after undergoing hand surgery, Pete Nakos of On3.com reports.

Impact With the benefit of a bye week giving extra time for Judkins to recover, he is not expected to sit out any games. The running back has 71 carries for 491 yards and six yards in 2024.

OCTOBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Recovers after early fumble Week 7 Judkins totaled 11 carries for 23 yards and one touchdown and hauled in both of his targets for 38 yards during Saturday's 32-31 defeat versus Oregon.

Impact Judkins gave the ball away for the first timethis season when Oregon defender Derrick Harmon forced the running back to fumble in the first quarter. The Ole Miss transfer bounced back with a one-yard rushing score just two offensive series later, and he tallied a season-high 38 receiving yards. This didn't quite make up for what was by far his worst rushing output of the year. Meanwhile, TreVeyon Henderson tallied a team-high 87 rushing yards on 10 carries. Quarterback Will Howard also scored a one-yard touchdown on a keeper to put the Buckeyes on the board in the first quarter. With a high-level passing game and two other rushing threats to contend with, Judkins will almost definitely have some more low-output performances moving forward. His next opportunity will come in a Week 8 home game versus Nebraska.

OCTOBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Held without a score again Judkins had 13 carries for 78 yards and gathered in his only target for negative two yards during Saturday's 35-7 victory against Iowa.

Impact Judkins had a more efficient outing after logging a season-low 54 rushing yards during last week's win against Michigan State. But, he also failed to score for the second week in a row. After totaling five rushing touchdowns over the first three games of the year, the Mississippi transfer has not scored on his 24 rushing attempts across the last two games. He's also continued to split carries with TreVeyon Henderson so far during Big Ten play, as the latter rushed 11 times for 61 yards Saturday. With these two balancing a relatively equal workload combined with an extremely talented receivng corps, it'll be very tough for Judkins to find many scoring opportunities moving forward. He'll look to find paydirt in next week's road game versus fellow conference heavyweight and No. 3-ranked Oregon.

OCTOBER 6 • ROTOWIRE

Logs 54 rushing yards Week 5 Judkins accrued 11 carries for 54 yards and hauled in all two targets for 17 yards during Saturday's 38-7 victory against Michigan State.

Impact Judkins came back down to earth after totaling 281 rushing yards over the previous two contests. The 219-pound junior still led the Buckeyes in carries ahead of fellow star running back TreVeyon Henderson (seven) and true freshman James Peoples (10). Judkins has definitely been the most consistent ball-carrier among this group, and this was actually his first game without a touchdown this season. With a limited number of carries to go around, Judkins and the Buckeyes' other running backs will likely need to rely on touchdowns to buoy their fantasy value week-to-week. Next Saturday's home matchup against a tough defensive squad in Iowa will likely be one of their toughest challenges this season.
