Ohio State linebacker Ross Homan, 51, comes in to make a tackle on a Wisconsin player during Saturday's game at Ohio Stadium against the Badgers. Homan, a junior from Coldwater, was selected as the conference's defensive player of the week. He had a career-high 15 tackles while adding two sacks, a pass breakup and a forced fumble to help the Buckeyes roll over Wisconsin 31-13. His two sacks pushed Wisconsin back 13 yards and nine of his 15 defensive stops were solo tackles. He surpassed his previous career high of 10 tackles, matched in two games last season.
