Game will be televised by ABC.

Some teams within a conference just play certain teams well. Wisconsin has played OSU well lately. I think this will be a very tough game for OSU. Last week, Wisky held out their tightends who are very good. I'm sure OSU will get a full dose of them. Plus, Camp Randell is a very tough place to win, especially at night.

Predictions anyone?

[crafty left-hander]

Buckeyes by 2 td's! Is Brent and Kirk calling the game? I'm assuming they are.

[Skipjack]

OSU has a hard time beating Wisconsin at home. Buckeyes is starting to come around. Wisconisin is ticked and coming off a embarrasing loss. OSU pulls this one out close. Good game and stay injury free.

[fuzzhead]

I'm going with OSU because they have better receivers than Wisconsin and because of the combination of Wells and Pryor in the backfield. OSU has a more balanced attack than the Badgers and I think their defense will step up, as well.
It won't be an easy win - 10 points or less - but I think this could be one of those games that makes a young guy like Pryor a legitimate star.

OSU 24
Wisconsin 17

OSU will have to tackle well, and the Linebackers will have to be able to cover the TE on pass plays.

Wisconsin uses the TE better than most Big Ten teams, and they could hurt the Buckeyes with pass plays to the TE.

This will be the first true test for Pryor, facing a solid defense, and playing on the road in a very hostile environment.

Wisconsin has the dirtiest home fans in the game, and the don't mind showing it.

Camp Randall Stadium isn't goin' to be quite as loud.... no band

MADISON, Wis. -- The University of Wisconsin marching band has been suspended indefinitely while allegations of hazing, alcohol abuse and sexual misconduct are investigated.

The band won't play Saturday during a nationally televised football game between the No. 18 Badgers and No. 14 Ohio State at Camp Randall Stadium.

Camp Randall has always pumped in music over the loud speakers as well.

The Students will still be drunk and rude, and the place will still be loud.

-I-O

[qualified101]

should be a good game. anyone know the spread?

this just came from the sideline reporter on abc talking with band director about why they would suspend band activities tonight for such big game? the response was "we want to make sure the band is back for the penn state game". no respect from the wisconsin band director. will ohio state prove him wrong? we will see, its time for kickoff.
