Ohio State’s upcoming match-up against Penn State will likely be the biggest of the season. And honestly it’s been that way for a while. That team up North hasn’t beaten OSU since 2011, and before that it was 2003. Penn State has defeated the Buckeyes twice that amount in the same period, and even came to the Shoe twice to do it. The poor Michiganders haven’t seen that in 20 years.
Even in the most recent history, Penn State has been the far bigger threat. The Scarlet and Gray barely scrapped by with one singular point the difference the last two years, both needing sizable comebacks to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.
