COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Five reasons the No. 3 Ohio State Buckeyes will beat the Minnesota Golden Gophers on Saturday night in Ohio Stadium.
1. Turnovers: Maybe that three-game stretch Ohio State had in September was too good to be true.
Three consecutive games with a defensive touchdown, 12 touchdowns in three games against Hawaii, Northern Illinois and Western Michigan, and three of them came on defense.
That's scary.
How could you possibly like your chances against Ohio State, even with its offense struggling some at the time, when the defense is scoring like that?
