The Ohio State Buckeyes might want to brace for a Penn State Nittany Lions program that was deemed deserving of college football's preseason No. 2 ranking as opposed to the horror show that's lost four in a row since Big Ten play began.
The Columbus Dispatch's Rob Oller believes Penn State is the most talented team on OSU's schedule, even with James Franklin's departure, outside of the Buckeyes' Week 1 matchup, the Texas Longhorns.
Oller gave Ohio State defensive coordinator and Broyles Award frontrunner Matt Patricia and offensive coordinator Brian Hartline, a simple enough game plan to seal a win in Week 10: dominate the trenches like the Texas game and put pressure on Nittany Lions quarterback Ethan Grunkemeyer.
