1. Dwayne Haskins has more touchdown passes than incompletions

Is this even a bold prediction anymore? Twice this season, Dwayne Haskins has finished a game with more touchdown passes than incompletions and he’s going to do so once again on Saturday afternoon against the Golden Gophers.

Again, Minnesota has yet to face a passing attack like Ohio State’s this season and it’ll show early on against the Buckeyes. They’ll look lost in the secondary against a plethora of talented wide outs and Haskins will have no problem carving up the defensive backfield for 350 yards and five touchdowns with, completing 21-of-24 passes.

Most of this production will come in the first half with the Buckeyes holding a 24-point halftime lead, making the second half the Tate Martell show.

It’ll be a learning experience for Minnesota, but the Buckeyes will gain even more steam with the big win over the Golden Gophers.
