Noah Ruggles earned Big Ten special teams player of the week honors after nailing four field goals and six extra points against Iowa on Saturday.
All of Ruggles' four field goals came in the first half when the Ohio State offense struggled to move the ball against a stout Hawkeye defense. The first of his kicks came from 46 yards out and was a season-long for Ruggles. He also converted field goals from 41, 35 and 26 and added two extra points in the first two quarters to provide the Buckeyes with 14 first-half points.
After the break, the Buckeye offense found its groove, which put Ruggles on extra-point duty for the remainder of the contest. In the final 30 minutes, the Odessa, Florida, native put four PATs between the yellow posts for Ohio State. He finished the game with 18 total points. In 2022, Ruggles is six-for-seven on field goals and 47-for-47 on extra points. In 20 career games for the Buckeyes, Ruggles has made 26 of his 28 field goals and is a perfect 121 of 121 on extra points.
Ruggles continues the streak for Ohio State players earning a Big Ten player of the week award the Monday after a game and now accompanies Marvin Harrison Jr., C.J. Stroud, Tommy Eichenberg and Miyan Williams as the Buckeyes to receive the honor.
