As the late great Keith Jackson said, “Whoa Nelly.” What else can be said to describe the contest between the No. 4 Ohio State Buckeyes and No. 9 Penn State Nittany Lions? The first half, it was all Nittany Lions; same goes for a majority of the fourth quarter. However, Urban Meyer’s squad ventured into the Valley, and somehow eked out a win, 27-26. For the second straight season, the Bucks prevailed by one point against the Nittany Lions, needing fourth quarter rallies to make it happen.
With the win, OSU controls its own destiny from here on out.
