Ohio State 63, Rutgers 7

The Buckeyes made Maryland look like a high school team last week, and that means it might make a worse Rutgers team look like the JV unit. There’s just too much skill, coaching and talent for the Scarlet Knights to even hope to be competitive. There might be some scoring in junk time, but keep that bus warmed up…

The end of the season can’t get here quick enough for Rutgers football. And it’s going to get worse before it gets better. The Buckeyes walk into SHI Stadium, take care of business and come back to Columbus to start prepping for Penn State. The game will be over quickly in terms of score, but it’s going to be a real long day for the Scarlet Knights.

This won’t be pretty. Similar to Maryland last week. Poor Piscataway. That is all.

It feels ridiculous to make a prediction this lopsided but I’m not sure how Rutgers ever stops the OSU offense. I also expect a couple defensive scores. Rutgers is simply overmatched.
