Ohio State vs. Rutgers: Complete preview and prediction

Everything you need to know as Rutgers travels to Columbus to take on the Buckeyes. #GoBucks

Ohio State opened Big Ten play right where they left off against Toledo. Many thought Wisconsin would pose a bit more of a challenge, but the Buckeyes jumped out to a 28-0 lead before the Badgers could blink.

Time to move on to the Scarlet Knights of Rutgers. Former Ohio State defensive coordinator, Greg Schiano has Rutgers playing respectable football and could pose a challenge to some conference opponents if taken lightly.

However, a home game for the Buckeyes doesn’t bode well for Schiano’s club. The Scarlet Knights will have to throw everything they’ve got at the Bucks to keep this one close. But never underestimate an underdog who’s got nothing to lose.

Let’s check out the teams by the numbers.
