Ohio State will have to show up early in this game. This is the Super Bowl of Arkansas State’s season coming to Columbus on Saturday. No doubt that they will play hard for Butch Jones, who was on Nick Saban’s staff at Alabama when they beat Ohio State in the National Championship game in 2021.

Arkansas State also brings back a few former Buckeyes in transfer running back Brian Snead and defensive coordinator Rob Harley who played safety at Ohio State from 2001-2005. His great uncle is of course Chic Harley, the former Buckeye legend.

It’s also important to note that this Arkansas State roster is littered with former transfers from other major college football programs. Most notable among them is former Florida State quarterback James Blackman. So, there is talent on the Red Wolves team.

But at the end of the day, Ohio State’s offense is looking to get back on track and I don’t see how there is a way for this Arkansas State defense to stop them. Buckeyes win big, but that 44.5-point spread is huge. I think the Red Wolves can cover.
