The prediction
Ohio State has looked like a different team over the past two games. While those Buckeye opponents aren’t the epidemy of powerhouse teams, the Buckeyes just had a look they didn’t have earlier in the season.
Maryland comes to Columbus after being embarrassed at home by Iowa. That usually gives me a feeling that the opposition will be a little more focused and do everything in its power to not have a repeat performance.
However, Ohio State knows that it has to be impressive the rest of the way, especially now that Oregon has a loss to an average Stanford team. The Bucks looked like a team on a mission with a healthy Stroud under center, TreVeyon Henderson running wild, and a revamped defense.
OSU will score early and often as they continue to roll and look to reclaim the reputation of Big Ten bully.
Final Score
Ohio State 62, Maryland 23
