This one started with an awkward noon blackout.
The previous one - the reigning king of B1G win streaks - began with Urban Meyer's first-ever trip to East Lansing for his first conference game. The previous streak began on arguably the greatest College Football Saturday of all time back in 2005.
That also featured Sparty. Our current win streak started vs. Nebraska. And it was awkward.
The Buckeyes had just allowed the Boilermakers to run them over in West Lafayette again. Then came the bye week, which is always the worst kind of flavor saver after a bad loss.
