Last Week: After the Buckeye’s bye last week, they should be ready to not only to take the field but also begin their stretch run that starts with a victory over Purdue and ends with a second straight national championship.

Last Week: Ohio State was off last week, so they should be refreshed and ready to go for the Lions this week. My only concern is that they go in too confident.

November has come to Columbus, and so has Penn State—and Jim Knowles. Ohio State enters 7–0 with a generational defense (41 points allowed in seven games) and a freshman QB playing like a vet.

With the Silver Bullets positioned to smother Penn State’s young quarterback and the Buckeye ground game poised for its best outing since early September, Ohio State has a prime opportunity to make a public statement in The Shoe: the road to the Big Ten still runs through Columbus, and the margin is widening.

Ohio State and Penn State both come off a bye week, but the two programs enter Saturday’s showdown heading in opposite directions. The Buckeyes are 7–0, ranked No. 1 in the nation, and fresh off a 34–0 demolition of Wisconsin, while Penn State arrives riding a four-game losing streak, a quarterback carousel, and an interim head coach.

For Penn State, it’s about stabilizing anything and trying to survive the Silver Bullets’ defense, which has allowed just 5.9 points per game all season. At noon on FOX, the Buckeyes will look to keep their championship rhythm — and Penn State will try to prove it still belongs in the conference’s upper tier.
