The regular season may have been cut short, but there’s no time to dwell, because the fourth-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes (5-0) are facing the Northwestern Wildcats (6-1) in the Big Ten Championship game with a berth in the College Football Playoff hanging in the balance.
The Buckeyes are 20-point favorites over the Wildcats in a rematch of the Big Ten title game from 2018. Justin Fields, aided by basically an all-Big Ten offense, looks to put up numbers against an unwavering Northwestern defense, while Pat Fitzgerald seeks his first conference championship as head coach of the Wildcats.
