Five keys to Ohio State beating Minnesota

We give you five keys to Ohio State beating Minnesota. How excited are you that game day is here?

Take advantage of mismatches through the air

I don’t for one minute buy the fact that Ohio State will come out and be run-heavy because of C.J. Stroud’s youth and inexperience. That’s because the Buckeyes have arguably the best wide receiver corps in the entire country, certainly in the Big Ten.

Ryan Day has shown that he will come up with a game plan that utilizes the strengths of his team 100 out of 100 times, and there’s no way he’s going to not take advantage of Chris Olave, Garrett Wilson, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and company. I don’t see any way that the Gophers’ secondary can stop the passing game, and Stroud will distribute the ball to his weapons through the air just plenty.

NEXT … Get at least a stalemate in the turnover battle
