It'll be a close game, I'm gonna go with the home team by seven, 38-31

[Region 15]

Tress would have taken a knee and ran out the first half clock without even making any attempt of scoring.

[seofan_via_dublin]

Northwestern had 3 touchdown drives against MAINE!

Bucks beat the crap out of the nerds.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

I too think the bucks by a bunch.

What Pat Fitzgerald has accomplished at NW is nothing short of amazing and I respect him for that. I also like seeing the "nerds" having success.

With that said, the only reason this game is a sellout is because of OSU fans who can't get tickets to see the Bucks in Columbus. It is much easier to get tickets at NW, Indiana, Purdue or Illinois than Columbus. That says volumes of your fan base and yearly expectations.

NW needed 2 defensive scores to beat Maine 35-21 to stay undefeated in their last game which was at home.

This could be a trap game for OSU following the Wisky game if someone else was coaching instead of Meyer. The Buckeyes are what, 28-1 in their last 29 games vs NW?

Buckeyes should roll and play a lot of players.

OSU by 4+ scores.

[noreply66]

Nw starts out fast but has had problems keeping a lead.

[C-Bolt]

They also get their best running back returning this week,he had been missing since week 1

[VegasEagle]

Bucks by 24

[OrginialYouKnow]

The buckeys give northwestern their first lose with and arse whipping im saying 2 scores!! URBAN MYER STYLE!!

[seofan_via_dublin]

Weather will be an issue, supposed to get a large rain storm.
If so, Buckeyes go to power run game, and don't score as much, but dominate the ground game.

[C-Bolt]

Maine must have a pretty good defense! Bucks defense better be getting their act together

[C-Bolt]

Good god this defense is awful! Gotta hope the Buckeye offense can bail them out again Finally they stopped that powerful NW offense! Whew another close one ,but its a win.Will they drop this week in the polls after most had this figured an easy win?

[GoBuckeyes2786]

Northwestern played with a lot of heart and is a pretty solid team. Not to mention every B1G is gonna throw the book at osu cause that's their Super Bowl so the buckeyes are gonna get the best from each team on the schedule.

The first half was awful. The second half the buckeyes got together and made it happen. Carlos Hyde dominated and carried the load. The defense stepped up and made plays and kept NU in check enough to allow the offense to take care of business.

[smurray]

Beating a ranked opponent on the road and I bet the hater pollsters drop the Bucks another spot or two.

[C-Bolt]

Dang I didn't think Hyde would make it through the press conference,he was all shook up

[zebra77]

of course they will, cause Oregon put up almost 60 on another great team tee hee, these pollsters r ignorant.

[mister b]

Very good football game for the average fan to watch.

I was wrong. Thought OSU would handle NW better than they did.

Fitzgerald and his Wildcats played a great game. They deserve their ranking.

[The Oaf]

Beating a ranked opponent on the road and I bet the hater pollsters drop the Bucks another spot or two.

This!

[GoBuckeyes2786]

I think as a team they really needed a game like this. NU had a great game plan, forced turnovers, put the buckeyes on the ropes behind 2 scores and the buckeyes fought adversity and came behind on the road and won the game. That shows a lot about the team to fight back from the poor start and take care of business
