Obviously the running game is in favor of the Buckeyes but just how much? Even Royster (So.) is their leading rusher with over 800 yards and 10 TD on the season. Good numbers through 8 games and is a key part to the PSU offense. At 6-1 212 lbs. He will be a hard runner that the front seven of the Buckeyes should be able to shut down and keep under his 100 yard average. The other threat the Buckeyes have to worry about on the ground is Clark tucking it away himself. Whether it is a designed run or scrambling, he is dangerous. He has 8 touchdowns on just 47 carries and is likely to keep the ball inside the 5 with his 6-2 231 lb. frame.
The Buckeye ground attack could be the most dangerous in college football now that the correct QB is playing and our man Beanie Wells is healthy. The option keep play out of the shotgun should be ran at least 10 times a game with the way it works against teams. All they could do is put 5 people on TP and the other 6 on Beanie, which I still like our odds. The line really needs to play like they did against Michigan State because every other game they have been mediocre.
When Ohio State wins this game, this is where it will be won. Running the ball up and down the field with TP and Beanie will keep the Nittany Lion offense off the field with their potent scoring attack. These two Buckeyes will lead them to a win in the 'shoe at night and open up the back door to the national championship game once again.
Buckeyes +1.5
Yea Ohio!
