Game Thread Ohio State vs Penn State - 11/23/19, 12:00PM (FOX)

Nobody is giving the pedsters a chance, which worries me. 1969, 1970, 1973, 1975, 1998, 2006. Ohio State has a history of looking like they could beat half the teams in the NFL only to fall flat on their face 10 yards from the finish line. Let's hope this isn't history repeating itself.
I’m right there with you those memories are stronger than the wins and NC’s.

Those upsets happen far less often than the expected result, they just stick in our memory more. I'll take being an 18 point favorite over being an underdog any day.

I thought I was the only one with a cautious approach to this game. I'd love a worry-free game tomorrow but think it will be somewhat closer than many of the blowout predictions I have seen.

With a healthy team
And with Ryan Day.

It is absurd to suggest that he may be the better coach but I have seen quite a bit of evidence that players felt a bit tight under Urban.

Given the athletes and team that Urban put together Day just might be the better coach to deliver this kind of win.

Yeah - that sounds stupid.

No it doesnt sound stupid. Team playing loose, open and confident.
