Bottom line to me is still the blackjack principle as it has been all year. Score 21+ and we'l be fine.

Watch out for Derrick Williams

tit for tat - we have one too, his name is Brian Hartline. ("Who needs Ted Ginn...Who?")

The have taken some hits to their "D" line recently and that could be a factor. Lost their best blocking fullback for the season. Could be enough to make a difference.
I think we win a close one.  |

Is the OSUMB going to this game? I thought I heard that they were never going to go back to State Penn after '05, but I'm not sure if that is accurate.

For Penn State week, the BP Torrent crew will be serving up the following games (in addition to the 2007 games):
2002 Penn State vs. Ohio State - Chris Gamble's INT for a touchdown wins a close one in the 'Shoe.
2006 Penn State vs. Ohio State - Smith to Robo, Jenkins' pick 6 |

Ohio State has won two times in Happy Valley since they joined the Big Ten in 1993. You can blame the crappy record on John Cooper, if you want. But Jim Tressel is 1-2 there.
Ohio State is going to have to go in there and quiet the crowd immediately. They are going to be as loud and obnoxious as they were in 2005. If Ohio State can get into double digits in points in the first quarter, and limit Penn State to minimal first downs (and zero points), I think Ohio State will coast to a victory. If not, it'll be a battle.

this is the toughest game left on the schedule.....i think if osu can defer and put the defense on the field first..stop them realitively quick and go score on offense...it would do wonders...but psu was a lot better in 2005...just something about this game has me worried....psu isnt great but they are streaky.... osu must get off the field on third down defensively

I would like to hear your thoughts on just why PS will be harder than Scum, who incidentally beat PS? Who has the top rated Rb in the B10 and one of the best in the Nation, plus a qb who ,whether you like it or not, is going to play pro ball? | |
