Early prediction, subject to change:

tOSU - 27
VT - 17

After watching VT struggle to run the ball on W&M, I might have to change my prediction of a defensive struggle. Of course, they may have just been holding a lot back...........

Just looking over the depth chart......2015.......holy hell

I've been excited about this game ever since it was originally announced. The Shoe will definitely be rockin.

Add me into this group.

I try to temper expectations but this game seems like one that breaks open for the Buckeyes. I see a couple big plays go their way and Virginia Tech won't be able to handle the punch.

Agreed. I do not take VT lightly at all, they always field a pretty good team, a great defense, and superb special teams. But they've lost quite a few guys and are going to be facing a rocking atmosphere in the 'Shoe. Plus I think we match up really well with them (sans our pass blocking against their DL). My official predication is OSU 41, VT 17. I just want to win the game but I get the feeling we are going to open it up on them.

Not to be a downer but have you guys seen the new rules for the stadium? You can get escorted out for standing during gameplay.

There is a "no pass out" rule too, which I always thought was kind of redundant.

What the fuck do I care if you throw me out after I pass out? Its not like I'm missing anything.

The no-standing thing isn't really a change, the electronic snitching is. Before you'd have to get off your ass and miss part of the game if you wanted to make the people around you have as little fun as possible.

E-snitches get e-stitches?

The good news is that the cell service in the stadium sucks during a game.

E-snitches get e-stitches, e-bitches.

FIFY

Not gonna lie though, part of me wishes this kind of thing was in place last year when that guy in the row behind me was touching me with his bare, crusty diabeetus feet.
