We give you five keys to Ohio State beating Oregon Saturday. Give us your biggest thing to watch.

Get the running game on offense

Ohio State isn’t all flash and dash on the outside with its otherworldly receiving corps. I’ve never seen an Ohio State game plan that doesn’t look to establish a physical brand of running. They both play off of each other, and if you can do both, defenses have to remain honest.

With the depth that Ohio State has across the board, if it can continue to lean on the Oregon defense and get yards on the ground, it’s going to allow for more work down the seams and across the middle in the passing game.
