Penn State Football: 5 reasons Nittany Lions will beat Ohio State

If you follow college football, you have heard of both of these teams. Penn State football heads to Ohio State to take on the Buckeyes in what could be the game of the year.

This game is big y’all. The Big Ten East is on the line. The entire Big Ten is on the line. The playoff is on the line. College GameDay is coming. This is as big as it gets right here.

Ohio State is coming off a bye week, a situation in which Urban Meyer almost never loses. The Buckeyes’ only loss of the year has come to Oklahoma, a team who is now seemingly struggling to hold a lead and win games in the Big 12. Penn State just manhandled the Michigan Wolverines and their top-ranked defense.

The Nittany Lions boost the top Heisman candidate in Saquon Barkley and a sparkling secondary. This match up could be the biggest and most important of the year. If not, it will definitely be one of the most exciting.

The Big Ten, save for Michigan, Ohio State and recently Penn State, isn’t exactly full of year in year out competitors. However, both Ohio State and Penn State have shown strength and ability so far this season and are ready to duke it out for a possible top-four ranking on Saturday. Currently Penn State sits at No. 2 in the nation while Ohio State is on the outside looking in at No. 6.
