Who wins and why?

The closer we get to this game the more worried I get. Rondale Moore and the gang present a huge challenge to the Buckeye defense who can’t stop giving up big plays. This is the scariest game left on Ohio State schedule IMO. I don’t think anyone else can score enough points to outscore the Buckeyes. Purdue can score points and I could see this one being a Big 12 shootout type game. Hopefully I’m wrong.

I'll say it...I think the Buckeyes get beat. The defense flat out stinks for a #2 team in the country, and offensively, the run game seems to be slowly disappearing. Haskins really hasn't had any "rookie" type of games, which makes me worry that if/when he does, things will be very, very bad. (Think Iowa 2.0) Like you, I hope I'm wrong.

Sand baggers. :lol2:

 

Purdue doesn't have the horses to keep up with OSU.

I hope you’re right.

They didn’t for Boston College either.

OSU will win but West Lafayette is the house of horrors for OSU.

 

Brohm will continuing auditioning for whatever is left of the UL program.

West Lafayette is the house of horrors for OSU.

You can say that again.

I hope you’re right.

 

They've certainly got a play maker in Moore, but OSU should win comfortably in the end.

Honestly, I wish I was. I wish this was some sort of reverse-psychology type of approach. But, I just have this bad feeling about this game. The type that they SHOULD win. The defense makes me want to pull my hair out. I don't know if it's technique, concentration, execution, experience, or game planning that's causing it, but they get gashed waaaay too much.

Moore vs our secondary is a matchup I’m not looking forward too.

Ohio State is beat up, injuries all over the place. It's what happens when you play in a power 5 conference. It's gonna be close early just because of the atmosphere, but the Bucks win this one easily in the end. Purdue loss to Missouri for God's sake.

Missouri is the loss you're hanging on, not the Eastern Michigan one? :lol2:

 

Purdue is awful. This game will most likely be over after the first quarter.

I don't think you have anything to worry about. OSU should be just fine in this one.

You're right. I tried, but Purdue is just awful. I had no idea that they loss to Eastern Michigan. :lol2:
