Rob Oller Prediction

"Scarlet the Shoe" is Ohio State's reaction to Penn State's traditional Whiteout, and it will be the closest the Buckeyes will get to being on high alert. There's nothing to be upset about when your team's offense is first in the country in scoring (49.3) and 18th in points allowed (18.57).

Joey Kaufman Prediction

This will not be the dance of previous weeks, but expect OSU to continue to win comfortably as its powerful offense keeps putting up numbers in a hurry.

Bill Rabinowitz Prediction

This game appears to be lot different than it first looked to be when quarterback Sean Clifford was not injured. Penn State needs the quarterback to be 100 percent healthy in order for the Nittany Lions to have a chance in this one.

Ohio State vs Penn State: Match Information

This year, Penn State has a strong team. They have a lot of talent on the field and are well-coached. I like both of their offensive and defensive coaches, and their defense can be quite good at times. But I think they're in for a rude awakening when they face Ohio State this weekend.

Ohio State is now playing at a level unrivaled by most teams in the country. While Penn State has consistently been a thorn in Ohio State's side, I believe the distance between these two programs has expanded in recent years. This year, Penn State will struggle to keep up with Ohio State's offensive.
