ALTOONA, Pa. -- Penn State is a huge underdog for Saturday's game at Ohio State, as the Buckeyes are favored by 18.5 points.
Will the Nittany Lions cover? Can they do better than that and actually have a chance to win?
Well, Penn State was a 20-point underdog back in 2016 when it upset Ohio State, 24-21, in the famous Kick Six game at Beaver Stadium. So, anything's possible.
The Lions have played the Buckeyes very tough during James Franklin's tenure, with the one victory a pair of one-point losses. But coming off a stunning loss to Illinois, and with the way Ohio State has been rolling everyone of late, it's no surprise that the point spread is so big.
