What Buckeyes proved against Penn State, projecting first CFP rankings
COLUMBUS — It may not have been a top-10 showdown. It may not have been a blowout win like many expected. But Ohio State welcomed Penn State into The Horseshoe, and the Buckeyes got the job done.
The offense sputtered in the red zone, but the defense stepped up to the task of defending an effective Penn State offense. In the end, the Buckeyes pulled away with a 33-24 win on Saturday night.
The Lettermen Row crew returns to analyze the gritty win over the Nittany Lions and what lies ahead for an Ohio State team that awaits to see its position in the first College Football Playoff rankings on Tuesday night.
In the latest episode of Lettermen Live hosted by Roosters, Lettermen Row senior writer Austin Ward is joined by former Buckeyes linebacker Bobby Carpenter, former Ohio State quarterback Justin Zwick, Nicole Cox of Roosters and Lettermen Row director of recruiting Jeremy Birmingham to analyze the win over the Nittany Lions.
The crew hands out some Buckeye Leaves to some of the top offensive and defensive performers from Saturday night’s game.
