Who wins and why?

I really wish Wazzu would have pulled out that win in the Apple Cup. I would have been a little more excited about facing a Wazzu team who also would have felt like they had a claim to the 4th spot than Washington who has been sort of an afterthought all season since the Auburn loss. Either way it’s the Rose Bowl. For some reason Ohio State doesn’t really get to play in the Rose Bowl that often so I can’t complain too much. Washington is horrible offensively but Gaskin is maybe the most underrated back in the country. I’d imagine he’ll have a couple big runs. In the end Ohio State should impose their will offensively and UW won’t be able to score enough. 42-24 Buckeyes.

I don’t really see this being much of a game. Bucks will roll in this one.

Washington wins 35 to 14

Buckeyes 49-27

Buckeyes big.

Washington cannot score with OSU.

51-24 OSU rolls easily.

OSU 56-35

Will be a lot like the Northwestern game. Buckeyes take it 38-24.

Ohio St. 31-14.

I expect OSU to win pretty handily, and fall 3 spots in the final rankings.

Dull boring win for the Bucks. I'm curious as to what @grantky thinks of this OSU season as a whole?

Agreed, I'll take OSU by 17.

Hard to be too upset about a season where we lost 1 game, beat Michigan, win the Big 10, and win the Rose Bowl. It sounds absolutely crazy but there are plenty of Ohio State fans who would prefer this Ohio State season more than Alabama’s season last year. They’d rather beat Michigan and win the Big 10 than lose to Michigan and win the National Championship. I’m not one of those fans.
