The AthlonSports.com prediction:
Expect a close game that mirrors the last two matchups in this series. Penn State’s defense will have its hands full with Haskins and the Buckeyes’ passing game, but McSorley and Sanders are tough to contain for four quarters. With both teams likely to score points, this game may come down to whichever team can make a timely stop in the fourth quarter. The guess here is Ohio State does just that, edging Penn State for another close victory. Prediction: Ohio State 34, Penn State 31
