yeah, PSU will be a tough one IMO. We'll have to play well

That targeting call was the worst ever, no where near his head, in 5 years it will be two hand touch. Its sad when Baseball has more drama and physical play than football.

Mich and the Sooners losing didn't help, PSU is the class of the Big Ten this year

I thought for sure when they reviewed the replay, the would've called it a no-foul... but wow was I wrong, and shocked.

GO BUCS!

I think they heard you.

Holy smokes, this offense cannot be contained and the defensive front is vicious.

We've gone 96 and 85 yards for TD's with a few third downs. Our motor is clicking.

That was a nice TD pass to go out 28 - 0!

This game is a show of muscle.

total mismatch right now. Nebraska looks helpless

This is the best I've seen our offense and specifically Barrett in a long time...

agreed

Wasn't able to watch the Indiana game, and outside of Oklahoma these other games have pretty much been yawners.

Can't wait to get to the good part of the schedule.

Well, they managed to squeak out another win,

after this weekend I say we are back in the mix

j/c:

Excellent game for Ohio State. It looks like this team is really starting to click.

--Barrett looks like a different qb than earlier in the year. Much more decisive and accurate.

--The WRs are really coming on. We have some play makers.

--Nice two-headed RB unit and Dobbins is going to be a special, special back.

--The d-line is awesome.

--Bosa is becoing a true force.

--I think Wright might be a player in the secondary.

--Special teams still a little shaky.

--Got two weeks to prepare for Penn St. That's going to be a tough one.

Granted, it's in Columbus.

But Buckeyes are 6 point favorites against the #2 ranked team in the country this Saturday.

I think it's safe to say there's Alabama and then there's everybody else.

For instance, I think Alabama would be favored against the Buckeyes in Columbus.

Not by much. But still.

Hey, Ohio State is still a strong contender for the CFP. (the College Football Playoffs - to determine the National Champion).

I'm headed to Columbus Saturday for the game. Never been to the shoe ... anybody have advice on parking/eating/etc? I don't mind parking further away, just looking for the easiest route off of I-71

6 pts seems really high. I think the game should be even, but only because Ohio State is at home.

I really hope we win, but I'm nervous about this game.

I will say this..........if we win out....we're in.

I think I remember Saint giving some pointers on going to a Buckeye game, try and make the skull session if you can.

I agree,.

From what I have seen, PSU is the better team and I think that they would win on a neutral field. I am hoping that playing at home makes the difference in our favor.

And yes, if we win out we are in. We will have beaten PSU ranked #2, MSU ranked #16 then Wisconsin in the Big Ten Championship game who is ranked #5. (Rankings are week rankings).

okay thanks

Definitely hit the skull session - it's in St. Johns arena and starts at 1:10pm for the game Saturday.

Here is a map for parking - if you are going to the skull session you'll be there early enough that it should be pretty easy to find a spot. http://grfx.cstv.com/schools/osu/tickets/pdf/m-footbl-gameday-parking-map.pdf

I usually park in the North Campus Garage, which is south of the stadium, but I wind my way through back streets to get there and avoid 315.

Have fun! It'll be a great game to attend as a first game I think. The Shoe is an amazing place to see a game even though you're packed in like sardines.

thanks Columbus ... appreciate it!!

I think OSU and PSU might both belong in the best 4 teams in the country... but the winner of this game has the inside track to the playoffs and the loser of this game has an uphill battle and will require a lot of help. Especially if it's OSU because that would be 2 losses..

Primarily because the loser of this game is unlikely to be in the conference championship game.

One other thing I haven't see mentioned much is.. can we put to bed the notion that the SEC is the big powerhouse conference? They had a great long run and Alabama might very well win the NC game this year.. but you have Alabama, then Georgia is really good.. beyond that, who from that conference scares people? I mean, they aren't horrible, they have some other pretty decent teams... but they are down this year..

Whew I had to change up a ton of stuff today to make sure I will be home in time for kickoff. Penn State GOING down!

I think Ohio State wins and cover the spread. Meyer excels in these type of games.

We lost to them last year (good game) and it was hurtful to us, so I think paycheck is in the air!

Mow em' down Meyer, mow em' down!

Don’t forget to deposit your payback this week.

This is the biggest OSU game in awhile.

Not a good start for the Buckeyes

Nope...

Damn that pesky thing called spelling! lol...

Meyer needs a ST coach. We're so poor in that area and it's consistent too.

Cant we find a five star recruit to kick the ball out of the zone

Don't give their best player chances to beat you

Oh wow... wow. Horrible.

Well, this is going swimmingly.

They are for real we are not looks like
