Ohio State begins its final third of the regular season on Saturday.
The Buckeyes face their final road test before their regular season-ending trip to Ann Arbor as they take on Purdue in West Lafayette. While the Buckeyes are heavily favored to beat the Boilermakers, who are just 2-7 this season, Purdue is 5-4 against Ohio State at Ross-Ade Stadium since 2000, making this week’s game one that still has OSU’s attention.
If Saturday’s game plays out as hoped, Ohio State won’t need its starters to play four full quarters and it’ll have the opportunity to get its backups some reps on the road.
