I sincerely doubt it…they have owned us.
I work with a lot of Buckeye fans and trust me, they worry about us every year. Up until last year, they worried about us more than they worried about Michigan.

I’m not sure the big boys are ready for us based on how they’ve played so far.
tOSU has looked pedestrian up until this week. UM has logged the same blah performances the last few weeks too. None of that really matters though as some whiny fans will do that until PSU pulls off a win against one of the two. It's some sort of defense mechanism for them like they have matches and are amazed that it creates fire.

PSU has some holes in the interior lines/MLB, but OSU fans have concerns about their OL. UM threw 3 picks against Bowling Green and put up 312 total yards of offense, but inside the PSU box the same token fans using the same token cliches are just a way of life. Sane fans know PSU can lose one of those games or both, but they also have a punchers chance at winning one of the two at least too. They are both good teams as is PSU, but moping about it means you're a "real fan" and are keeping it real. Thank goodness people point out things like PSU could lose to a top 10 team....brilliant.

To be clear, we’re expressing disappointment that clearly we can beat illini and Sister Mary of the Poor but clearly we still can’t hang with the big boys. You’re: “WE BEAT ILLINI!!” we are: “we‘ll never beat the big boys when this is our effort v Mary of the Poors”. So I ask you, do you get it or am I a Nancy boy?
And remind me how we looked like world beaters before we beat beat them the last time……….that’s why you play the game for real, not just in your head.
