Game Thread Ohio State v Northwestern B1G Championship, @ Lucas Oil Stadium, Indianapolis, IN 12/1/18 8PM, FOX

I get this angle but I have a different take.

The boys just saw what happens when you play inspired. Domination. You add that with the big ten title and playoffs in your sight and I believe we get another killer performance.

If not for some bad misses last year I thought we could have burried Wisconsin like 2014. So when we need to win big for the playoffs we tend to show up.

It's in doors, on a fast track, we finally saw what we look like full go, playoffs on the line, and it's for the big ten title.

We are going to do this team hard and there's not much they can do about it. Fitz better hope his troops don't give up or we might throw 70 on them.

56-20 bucks.
I'm sure hoping you are right :dance2:

I haven't seen much oh NU all year but looking at the season stats it's hard to see what they are good at.

Like most games the past couple of years, up to OSU to play down to competition or just play their game.
They’re good at being in the shit-ass B1G West.

No reason tOSU shouldn’t boat race them.

I’ve learned over the years that the rest of the season tends to have little impact on that outcome of The Game. In other words, I don’t think our myriad issues are necessarily magically fixed after crushing our blood rival. I remain nervous simply because this team has given me eleven games of reasons to be vs. one not. That said, I’m hoping the utter curb stomping they just inflicted on those crap weasels woke up the petential that’s been there all along.

Way too early prediction:

41-24 tOSU

Basically what happened this year is the Wisconsin team and the Northwestern team did a trading places thing, where every player pretended to be the counterpart at the other school. No one noticed, and the results were switched, so Mortimer Duke wins a dollar.

A lot riding on this one. Obviously the B1G title is huge, and a win puts us back in the conversation for a spot in the CFP. Honestly though, as long as we beat Northwestern, it doesn't matter if we are left out of the playoffs. We'll still have nice landing spot in Pasadena for the Rose Bowl. If we get in the CFP, that likely means that Xichigan will be playing in the Rose Bowl. Personally, I'd prefer those losers never do better than the Outback Bowl.....

I love this thread exists at all!!!

... I am interested in playing the nerds but I can't help but think if Purdon't actually showed up more often we'd have the same opportunity to avenge our loss.

Don't get me wrong, though I'M PUMPED FOR THIS GAME!!! GO BUCKEYES!!!

Northwestern will stay with us for 3 quarters. But I think we put the hammer down in the 4th. We must avoid the turnovers and stupid mistakes in order to win. Then it will be up to the play-off committee to decide our fate. I have a strong feeling we end up playing in the Rose Bow.
