Ohio State dominated Nebraska last year. The Cornhuskers came into the game with hopes of upending a top-five Buckeye squad. Nebraska left with a 59-point loss. The team Nebraska had last year was better.

Barrett will have his way with the Husker defense. A 62-3 victory might not happen. Ohio State could easily be 30-point favorites. A six-game winning streak and undefeated record could follow the Buckeyes into this matchup.

Middle of the road Big Ten teams will have a rough time. The Wisconsin Badgers, Penn State Nittany Lions, and Michigan Wolverines are very good. Them and Ohio State will not easily get upset.

Ohio State dominates teams that are not their level. They showed last year they do not play around. Barrett tossed four touchdowns against the Huskers. More of the same will happen.
