Bowl Projections 2019: CFP Predictions Ahead of Saturday's Key Games

Ohio State faces one of its biggest tests of the season Saturday.

The Buckeyes, who are No. 2 in the College Football Playoff rankings, are set to host No. 8 Penn State in a pivotal Big Ten clash. The winner of the contest will be in first place in the East Division in the Big Ten with only one week of the regular season remaining.

That means the loser may have more trouble getting into the College Football Playoff—although it might not hurt Ohio State as much, as it has won its first 10 games of the season.
