Tonight, the Buckeyes prove they're for real.
Personally, I don't need much more convincing after watching them win seven of their last six games and beat three-consecutive ranked teams on the road, though I do understand that skeptics still exist.
But they won't after tonight.
Ohio State's rolling into Iowa City as 5.5-point underdogs, but you can keep your points. The Buckeyes are winning this straight up. Hell, I might even lay five points – Fran McCaffery's going in a trashcan.
I'm just praying we a sequel to his delicious meltdown from the famous Justin Ahrens game of 2019.
