Ohio State Football season predictions

Two of the biggest games on the Buckeye schedule come back-to-back

@ Indiana

Even though this game is coming after the Ohio State bye week, there is still a lot of potential for this game to become a trap game for the Buckeyes. Indiana is a good team that is trying to rise in the Big Ten East. The Hoosiers had a lot of success last year, with a loss to Ohio State being the only blemish on their record.

Indiana typically plays the Buckeyes close and a night game right before the Buckeyes take on Penn State could prove some trouble for Ohio State. I think this will be a close game that Ohio State will put away late in the fourth quarter.

Penn State

The Nittany Lions are the only team that has consistently given the Buckeyes a challenge over the last several years. Multiple matchups where it took a late-game comeback from the Buckeyes to earn the win. This is almost always a fight and things should be no different this year.

Penn State has been the second-best team in the Big Ten East over the last decade. The last hurdle for the team to clear is overcoming the Buckeyes. While Ohio State will always look to Michigan as the biggest matchup, Penn State will have had the Buckeyes in their sights from the beginning of the season.
