What to expect in the Ohio State vs Penn State game?
Ohio State's offense has been performing well. But one concerning factor that could be crucial in the result of their Week 8 clash would be their red zone struggles. The Buckeyes have touchdown scores in only 60.9 % of its red zone possession, which ranks 69th nationally. This trouble was pretty evident during their close game against Notre Dame, which they eventually won 14-17.
On the other hand, Penn State's defense has been incredible this campaign. They have stopped their rivals on the field on 46.4% of defensive snaps for a loss or no gain. If the Nittany Lions can continue this defensive stronghold, then Ohio State will have a difficult time defending their six-game winning streak. Who will record their first loss of the season this weekend?
