The Ohio State University football program recorded its 800th all-time victory yesterday against in-state rival Ohio University.

The outcome was closer than many imagined, including the team, but a strong 4th quarter gave the team the lead for good as they went on to win 26-14.

James had 9 total tackles to lead the defense (4 solo, 5 assisted) plus an interception after teammate Marcus Freeman tipped an OU pass. James also broke up a pass during the game.

The boxscore, postgame quotes, and more can be found on the official website. Pictures can be seen at The OZone.

The team never seemed to get a rhythm going and could not execute very well. Due to the struggles and closeness of the game, the team slid 2 spots, in the AP poll, to #5.
