Two people predict a Northwestern win in the poll, so far.
Wait, the same two idiots that voted against the Buckeyes all year and according to their view, would be 0-12 right now....lol

With OSU being a 14 point favorite many "experts" are saying that makes Northwestern a good bet. They figure Ohio State will play like they did during the season, not like they did against U of M. Of course those same experts picked U of M to beat Ohio State.

Are we looking at a 2014 Buckeyes 2.0?
Saturday they showed they’re elite when they want to be. IMO, if they play like that, clean up some poor mental mistakes, I truly believe they can play and beat anyone.
Haskins 2nd in overall passing yards, 1st passing TD’s, 6th overall QB rating,
Haskins, Dobbins, Webster, Campbell, Dixon, Hill, Mclaurin just to name a few are elite athletes.
They can’t get that Hangover effect coming into Northwestern, they’re not anything I would jump around about, but they can easily beat the buckeyes if they come into Saturday not ready.

The offensive line played as a cohesive unit this past Saturday, protecting Haskins and creating running lanes for Weber & Dobbins, while not allowing any sacks. This was against a team that hangs their hat on the ability to create sacks and tackles for losses.
While the injury of Demetrios Knox is a tremendous loss, it shouldn't show any effect and like many key injuries often do, they provide opportunities for younger and equally talented players to step up and show their worth. Wyatt Davis is getting that chance and he has all the tools and abilities to be an outstanding guard for the Buckeyes. What also makes this key injury much less devastating is the return of former starter Branden Bowen and Brady Taylor. Josh Myers, is a freshman that would be starting on most teams.
The newly available rotation has given coach Stud more flexibility and options in his scheme of things. The complexity of down linemen assignments, makes it rather rare for a player to learn and adapt to all positions on the line. Don't know we have anyone of that caliber quite yet, perhaps Michael Jordan.
The offensive line is in a good place, both in post season and looking to next years team.

Sports,
You know I was very happy with the O-line and their game play. Very impressive against that TTUN defense that had caused major issues all year for teams.
Another thing that hangs out there out freaking quick is Parish Campbell sometimes it’s like he is on fast forward and everyone else is in slow-mo.

Good drive to get things started. Hell of a job by Haskins to keep that TD play alive.

I don't care if OSU goes on to win 70-7. Leave us out after watching yet another long run for a TD.

stop kicking out of freaking bounds.
NW gets the ball first in the 3rd and the last thing we need is to give this last minute drive a boost

One more quarter then we are off to the Rose Bowl. Getting to the Rose Bowl and beating our rival, that's always a successful season.
