FINAL THOUGHTS

PREDICTION: OHIO STATE’S DEFENSE WILL SCORE MORE THAN IOWA’S OFFENSE

Ohio State hasn‘t yet scored a defensive touchdown this season, but I think that changes today against the Hawkeyes’ bumbling offense. And if the Buckeyes’ defense can make that happen – if I have to get specific, I’ll predict Ronnie Hickman returns an interception for a touchdown – then I predict they’ll score more points than Iowa’s offense, who I think will struggle to find the end zone all day long considering the Hawkeyes have scored only seven offensive touchdowns all year.

SPENCER PETRAS IS LIKELY THE WORST QB OHIO STATE WILL FACE ALL YEAR

I don't mean to pick on the guy excessively, considering he's already gotten a lot of vitriol online (mostly from his own fanbase). But seriously, Petras makes Wisconsin's Graham Mertz look like Joe Montana. It's questionable if he'd start at Arkansas State right now, and he certainly wouldn't at Toledo.

There are plenty of numbers and stats that illustrate just how anemic Petras and Iowa have been this season, such as a 54 percent completion rate (the worst mark in the Big Ten) and a measly 5.8 yards per attempt. He's also only thrown two touchdowns all year, two less than the next closest Big Ten passer (Rutgers' Evan Simon).

This is all to say: If Ohio State's defense wanted a chance for a statement game, this is it.

Agreed

Today is a test for the defense. They have to be dominant to pass the test.

Today is an opportunity for the offense. By being dominant today they make a statement: a statement that they intend to prove that they are the best Buckeye offense of all time, and that today will have been exhibit A.

Our beloved Buckeyes take the field once again, on a mission to put the entire college football world on notice. Take the time to soak it in, BP. It won’t be long before the season is over and the lights will go dark for the long offseason standing in front of us. These moments are precious and fleeting… they’re gone before you have time to digest it.

If you can; watch the Skull Session, watch the walk-in, listen to the speeches from coaches and players that will be set in stone today. Take time to appreciate The Best Damn Band in the Land as they belt out “We Don’t Give a Damn!” and dot that magnificent I for Script Ohio today. Don’t dwell on what went right or wrong after the game, instead sing Carmen when all is said and done and feel the lyrics in your bones. Time and change.

Enjoy the ride today, it matters the most.

Now let’s give Iowa a good soul cleansing.

O-H!!!
