The Ohio State Buckeyes and Penn State Nittany Lions headline Week 10 in college football in a meeting of College Football Playoff-bound programs that need to prove they can win the national title.
Ohio State failed in its first major challenge of the season by losing by one point the Oregon Ducks.
The Buckeyes were competitive throughout that game, but they still lost and are viewed to be on the level below Oregon in the Big Ten.
The biggest knock on Penn State during the James Franklin era is that it can't win the big game.
