Episode Synopsis

Ohio State vs. Penn State: A High-Stakes ShowdownIn this upcoming matchup, Ohio State, ranked number one, faces off against Penn State, who's on a losing streak and recently fired their head coach. Penn State, with nothing to lose, might surprise the Buckeyes with trick plays, especially since they've had a week to prepare and have a history of unconventional strategies. Ohio State's defense needs to be on high alert for gadget plays.On offense, Ohio State's running game needs a boost, as they struggled against Wisconsin. However, Penn State's defense has been weak against the run, giving up over two hundred yards a game in Big Ten play. Ohio State's backs could have a chance to shine if they find their rhythm early.Penn State's safety, Zakee Wheatley, is a force to be reckoned with, having forced eleven turnovers in his college career. Ohio State's quarterback, Julian Sayin, will need to be extra careful when Wheatley is on the field.The final key is the matchup between Ohio State's run defense and Penn State's run-heavy offense. If Ohio State can contain Penn State's running back, Kaytron Allen, it puts pressure on the untested quarterback, Ethan Grunkemeyer, to perform in his first big road game. This game could be a turning point if it gets tight late in Columbus.The Daily News Now! - Every city. Every story. AI Powered. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
