Hawkeyes and their presumed new offensive coordinator come to the ‘Shoe. The Buckeyes have won 7 straight against Iowa in Columbus, since a 9-16 loss in 1991.

I hope they're firing on all cylinders that day. I'll be attendance with a couple buddies. Last time I was in the Shoe was the 2015 MSU game.I just realized Iowa gets a Bye week prior to our game.
For sure not ideal.
Because of that and their defense I fully expect some issues early in the game adjusting to the step up to their defense.
With Oregon the next week there’s also the ability to maybe over look them. I wish Iowa would’ve won last week to stay ranked because that would’ve caught our guys attention.
As it stands, I expect we’ll break the rock later in the game to win. If we roll them I’ll be very impressed by that.
The Oct. 5 battle between the Buckeyes and Hawkeyes will be Ohio State's second appearance on CBS this fall following its 52-6 win over Akron in the 2024 season opener. It will also be Ohio State's second 3:30 p.m. kickoff in five games, with Western Michigan (7:30 p.m. on BTN), Marshall (noon on FOX) and Michigan State (7 p.m. on Peacock) being on different networks with different kickoff times.Were heading back to the Horseshoe for a B1G TIME showdown on the banks of the Olentangy!

Also off the talking head menu will be that Ohio State holds a 48-15-3* series lead and that 10 of those losses and 2 ties came prior to the Kennedy assassination. Since 11/2/1963 Ohio State is 35-5-1 against these turds. Not exactly a historical threat. Though, to be fair, 11/4/17 proved to be quite a memorable loss for the good guys and there's been some close wins along the way, including 2009 and the vacated 2010 game. The 2004 game may have been the low point (a relative term here) of the Tressel regime (excluding the obvious low point, of course, which led to the vacated game mentioned here ... or the whole Clarett situation, I just mean product on the field low point), capping three straight losses.Ohio State and Iowa are 1st and 2nd in the league in rushing offense (YPC).
They are 1st and 3rd in the league in rushing defense (YPC).
The talking heads will, of course, make much of that over the next few days.
They are 1st and 12th in the league in total offense (YPP).
They are 1st and 8th in the league in total defense (YPP).
The talking heads will, of course, pretend they don't know that over the next few days.
I don't think there will ever be an uglier 11-win season at tOSU than 2003.Oh... and then there was the 2003 barn burner.... Not a single offensive TD (for either team).... outgained 219-185... out punted them, though, 44.8 to 35.1!!!!
19-10 win.
