Nebraska's Martinez, Ohio State's Miller to trade scrambles in game between Big Ten contenders

Published November 20, 2014

In preparing for its game on Saturday night against No. 21 Nebraska and quarterback Taylor Martinez, Ohio State found the perfect surrogate.

The 12th-ranked Buckeyes didn't have to go far to find someone with Martinez's acceleration, vision, lane-changing speed and knack for lengthy touchdown runs.

He was just across the line of scrimmage.

In a matchup of run-first, pass-later quarterbacks who are closer to Usain Bolt than Dan Marino, Martinez and Ohio State's Braxton Miller will play can-you-top-this before a national television audience and more than 105,000 people at frigid Ohio Stadium.

Both teams put their perfect Big Ten records on the line in a showdown of the conference's two highest ranked teams — and perhaps most dangerous signal-callers.
