Preview
The #2 Ohio State Buckeyes hit the road and will visit the #13 Penn State Nittany Lions at the Beaver Stadium on Saturday. These teams faced each other last season and the Buckeyes took the win 33-24 at home but didn't cover the spread as -18.5 favorites.
Penn State Nittany Lions
The Nittany Lions get here with a 6-1 record after beating the Minnesotta Golden Gophers 45-17 at home. Clifford threw four touchdown passes in his 40th career start, Penn State's defense forced seven punts and the defense had a great game.
Sean Clifford has 1445 passing yards in 115 of 187 completions with 13 touchdowns and 3 interceptions. Nicholas Singleton leads in rushing yards with 561 yards in 82 carries and 7 touchdowns while P. Washington has 388 receiving yards in 30 receptions and 1 touchdown.
Ohio State Buckeyes
The Buckeyes are 7-0 so far this season after destroying the Iowa Hawkeyes at home 54-10 last Saturday. Stroud was 20-30 for 286 yards. He became the first player in program history to throw six touchdowns in three games, Emeka Egbuka had five receptions for 143 yards and a score and TreVeyon Henderson ran for 118 yards and a touchdown.
Defensively, Ohio State is one of the best in the nation and allows just 93.2 yards on the rush per game and 160 passing yards ranking #10 in the country with 15.7 points per game but most of the scores they are allowin have been in garbage time.
BETTING TRENDS
Ohio State are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games against Penn State.
Ohio State are 5-0 SU in their last 5 games against Penn State.
Ohio State are 14-1 SU in their last 15 games on the road.
Ohio State are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games when playing on the road against Penn State.
The total has gone OVER in 5 of Penn State's last 7 games.
Penn State are 6-1 SU in their last 7 games.
The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Penn State's last 7 games against Ohio State.
Penn State are 5-0 SU in their last 5 games at home.
Prediction
The Nittany Lions defense has been good actually but they have been average in offense scoring 33 points per game. The Buckeyes have one of the top 3 most electric offenses in the country and they are also ranking #10 in defense allowing only 149 passing yards which I believe it's going to make the difference on this game. The Buckeyes are a much superior team and I see them going for the Championship this year. Take Ohio State.
PICK: Ohio State -15.5 (-110)
