re: Ohio State - Penn State predictions

They are a much better team now, then they were when they played OU.


They've played:

6-2 Army
3-4 Rutgers
3-4 Maryland
3-4 Nebraska

It's tough to tell where Ohio State is at.

You are absolutely correct and I've thought the same thing. However, they didn't win close games, it was total domination from start to finish. They could have scored 100 points in a couple of those games but used the opportunity to get playing time for a lot of other players. It is what you would expect from a good team. I expect a close contest on Saturday but home field advantage coupled with the depth on Dline that osu has will be the difference. Buckeyes 31-17.

If penn state tries the 50/50 throws they will win. Ohio state can't stop it

PSU looks legit but I think OSU is hitting stride right now too, and they're at home

34-24 OSU

Penn State only has one "big" win and that was last week against a Michigan team that doesn't have a good offense at all. Ohio State has beaten up on some lower level teams and their only big game, they got their asses whipped. However, I have a hard time believing OSU will lose another big time home game in the same season. I give the slight edge to OSU.

OSU 27
PSU 23

So I'll bump this. Eat my crow that it wasn't a blowout, but I do think OSU is 14 points better on average, just not tonight they had to get the job done
