I think you guys could run the table.

Every team on our schedule has a winning record right now. Let's just take it one game at a time.

-No matter which way you look at it, Purdue is 5-0 and is putting up an abundance of points.
-Kent State doesn't look that terrible this year. Their near collapse against Ohio University yesterday is not encouraging, but they seem like a possible trap game when looking forward to...
-Michigan State is looking very competitive this year. They battled back against Wisconsin and didn't collapse as they would have last year. They were knocking Donovan around all day, despite Wisconsin having possibly the biggest offensive line in college football. Their running game is solid. Hoyer is not making a ton of mistakes.
-While I do believe Penn State has been overrated all year, playing in Happy Valley is always tough. The solution to beating the Nittany Lions is simple: Get to Morelli and make him make mistakes.
-No matter what the situation has been, Wisconsin has always seemed to pull through since that Michigan game last season. They are playing some great Big Ten football, and their team toughness has prevented any possible collapse.
-Illinois has only lost to Missouri this year. They turned over the ball 5 times in that game, and yet they came back from 17 down to almost pull off the win (40-34 final score). The best way to beat Illinois is by forcing them to throw, as they are 6th in the nation in rushing yards per game. Zook's squad, however, is 103rd in the nation in passing yards per game. Illinois quarterbacks have combined for 7 interceptions. Their overall quarterback rating is 101.1. That is 6.3 below Notre Dame.
-Michigan is in shambles, and Jim Tressel owns him. That being said, its a rivalry game and Michigan will come out fired up.

That is about the most positive way you can look at each opponent.

I would also consider the very realistic view that OSU will be the more talented team in every regular season game we play this year. That obviously does not always equate to a win, but all things being equal I'll take that advantage consistently over any other.

OSU will have no problems w/ Can't. OSU's D will wrap Can'ts QB & RB. OU made them look good because their tackling was horrendous.

Boeckman ain't Troy.

I know you're probably not the only one who's said this and I know you're not knocking Boeckman, but I think comments like this are dismissive and not fair in some respects. You can't even compare player who just started his fifth game to the body of work that Smith assembled. However, Boeckman is having a very good year so far and is stepping forward as a leader according to the accounts I've seen and heard. I think he's shown so far that he has every opportunity with his talent, maturity, coaching and players surrounding him to become just as accomplished a player as Troy Smith was for the Buckeyes. He won't be able to do it the same way Troy did, but that won't necessarily be a barrier to him achieving.

As far as running the table goes - I don't want to think about that right now. There are plenty of tough games left on the schedule - starting this week at Purdue. Wisconsin is going to play them tough as well, and Penn State and The Game on the road are always hard battles. The Buckeyes should be favored in every game they play the rest of the year though and I'm hoping that's the way it plays out.

Worth pointing out that Juice was injured in the first half against Mizzou and missed over half the game.
