Ohio State Football: Three bold predictions vs. TTUN
By Ryan Stano
2. The Ohio State Football team will force four turnovers
TTUN isn’t particularly turnover-prone as a team. In fact, they’ve only turned the ball over eight times all season long. That’s because they have players who do a good job protecting the ball. Cade McNamara doesn’t throw for many touchdowns, but he doesn’t throw picks either.
Despite all of this, the Buckeyes will force four turnovers. That’s because the Buckeyes have a knack for forcing turnovers in big spots. They’ve done that all season long against a range of opponents. Nothing will change against TTUN on Saturday.
If you look at the recent string of games between these two teams as well, TTUN seems to run into turnover problems against the Buckeyes. They seem to fold under the pressure of the rivalry. They’ve given us no evidence that anything would change this week either.
Ohio State’s defense has also played much better in recent weeks. Against some of the best teams they’ve faced, they have done a good job of forcing turnovers in big spots. Four might be a bit much, but this isn’t called a bold prediction for nothing!
If the Buckeyes are able to do this, there is no reason why they shouldn’t win the game. Any time you force four turnovers in a game you should easily win the game. That would be a great way to beat this team and punch your ticket to the Big Ten Championship.
The last bold prediction for this game has to deal with the score of the game throughout.
