Final Thoughts, Questions and Players to Watch Entering Ohio State’s Big Ten Opener Against Wisconsin

Big Ten play has arrived.

Ohio State will begin its nine-game regular season slate of conference games tonight when it hosts Wisconsin under the lights in Ohio Stadium. The Buckeyes and their fans will be wearing black as the Buckeyes play their third home night game in four weeks, continuing an unprecedented stretch of September primetime games in the Shoe.

Saturday night’s game will be arguably the toughest test of the season to date for Ohio State; at a minimum, it will be the Buckeyes’ toughest test since their season opener against Notre Dame. The Buckeyes are favored to win by 19.
