Honestly as a Ducks fan, Penn State needs to pull of this win

I love how he acts like Drew Allers is not completely 70 percent of his passes and is clearly the leader of that team. If Perbula could throw wouldn’t he already be the starter 🤔🤔

Duck fan here. OSU will win. PSU will find a way to choke

As a Buckeye fan, I put $100 on Penn state to win straight up. PSU will dominate the lines of scrimmage and could pull away big time in the 2nd half. PSU 31-OSU 17

I doubt Chip Kelly has any effect on the outcome of this game at all. I actually think Kelly still has loyalties to Oregon and he's sabotaging OSU so Oregon can win the championship. This game will come down to how good a field general Will Howard really is and if I were him, given the situations, I would change the damn plays in the huddle. It couldn't go any worse than a loss at Penn State which would be the end of Ohio State's season.

Yeah drew Allar who hasn’t lost a football game this year can’t beat Ohio state but Beau Pribula can. Clown .

As an Aggie, I fear Ohio St fires Ryan Day and goes after Mike Elko.

This guy picked West Virginia earlier in the season. He is a joke.

As an Ohio st fan I’m not confident at all for the first time in a long time our o line hasn’t been this bad for awhile and al it took was two injuries up front

National Media really jumping on the Beau gives them a better chance to win bandwagon. Just stop it. Drew is 6’5 235 with a rocket arm, enough athleticism to pickup a couple big first downs with his legs, and can make every throw on the field at any time. Playing with a ton of confidence too. I love Beau, but Drew is the superior player and gives them the best chance to win. No question.

The chatter for Pribula to start regardless of Allar’s health is so galaxy brained. Why thrust him into his first start in a high stakes game vs. Ohio State? Have people already forgotten about Drew Allar’s final drive in regulation vs. USC? Two 4th down conversions with immense pressure. We don’t even know if Beau is capable of being clutch like that. PSU is RB/TE centric as it is. Part of why it has worked is because Drew Allar can make all the throws and defenses still have to respect the perimeter/deep balls. While Pribula presents unique challenges, if he’s starting for a full game, OSU should stack the box, stop the RBs/TEs and force Pribula to make outside throws. That could easily cost my Nittany lions.

Nobody tell James Franklin this a big game. Hes the only bigger choke artist than Ryan "no big wins" Day

Chip peaked years ago and hasn't shown anything innovative in years. There is going to be a lot of broken TVs in Columbus after Penn St smokes the nuts.

The team that wins will have more points than their opponent in the total duration of the game. Football! 🏈

Bro, you can come out and say you’re a buckeye fan 😂😂😂😂

Penn State is going to DOG WALK ohio state and I’m a buckeye fan.

Go Lions!

Ohio State has to win this right? Penn State might not have their QB despite the backup looking okay. Buckeyes have their own issues on the OL. Still, Will Howard has proved me wrong all year. Think he’s the difference here whether Allar plays or not. Plus Penn State doesn’t have the skill players at WR to really stress the Buckeyes secondary like Oregon did. Ohio State 31, Penn State 23

I actually agree with him purbudila could be good

Being able to lose equating to less pressure is one of the dumbest arguments Ive heard. You really think that changes the level of pressure the players feel one bit? Or the message the coaches send to the players? Its a pundits illusion.

As a buckeye fan Penn state has depth on both lines. We don’t

Osu gets the w

Ryan Day and OSU got to get this one. The coach is losing to many big time games. If he does i believe he be known for not getting them over the hump. Last minute loss to Ga years ago. The Michigan losses then the Oregon loss. The program is to big for all these losses to other big programs.

Drew is the starter, we will lose if we try to get too cute. I submit the psu win over usc.

As much as Ryan Day can’t win big games, James Franklin is worse and has terrible self awareness. As much as I believe penn st is better, I have to see it to believe it

It is a white out go psu

OSU's left side of the Oline is going to get thrashed all game by Carter, Burke is going to get burned and miss tackles, and Igbinosun is going to kill us with multiple OPI calls. OSU hasn't given me any reason to think that they win this game. Oh and on top of that its Happy Valley, the second largest college stadium in the country...which is going to be packed

Seems that perimeter plays get poor blocking half the time. Then you’re behind the sticks. Franklin has a history of doing something weird (detrimental ) in these big games.

Should be a classic game. I agree with his take on the outside, OSU has better Athletes there. But his take on the backup QB being better than their starter, Don’t see that. I do think OSU is a better team but their O line is a mess and the game is in Happy Valley so it’s a Toss Up for me

It’ll be interesting to see if Ohio st can hold up in the O-line against this defense if they can they’ll win if not it mite be a long day for them.

Ohio state 24-20

That’s why people go to Ohio state…because they don’t like contact with that soft ass schedule. If Ohio loses they are out of playoff with that weak schedule. But Penn state has one of the dumbest coaches in the big ten like Purdue and Michigan. Ohio 37 psu 27.

PSU can LOSE and definitely still gets into the cfp. If tOSU loses, they have a slight chance of reaching the cfp. tOSU’s back is against the wall, and the deck is stacked against them. Go Bucks! Beat PSU!

Penn State under Franklin has developed a culture of mediocrity. When you have that and no pressure to win this game cause you can still make the playoffs then I expect them to lose.

Thanks!

How the hell is Ohio State favored? Did anyone see their OL against Nebraska? 60 rushing yards!!

Ohio state not losing 🤣 Oregon count your days 🥂

Ohio State wins by double digits. Most people are looking to much into the Nebraska game. All season Penn state has escaped losses from subpar teams such as usc and Wisconsin. They even made it somewhat competitive with bowling green.

Just pressed play im predicting JD says OSU wins

This doosh picked WVU to beat Psu

OSU needs a 2012 Chip Kelly to win this game

Funny as soon as Ohio state has a decent schedule they don’t look as confident. This game is a toss up but I’m looking on to the Indiana game.

In a perfect world, the Buckeyes lose and Ryan Day gets fired. Ops ... I meant to say Day gets promoted.😂

If we handled business last week vs Nebraska I would feel ALOT better about this game, but we didnt, and so I do not lol

Ucla fan here. Chip Kelly has lost it. He's been figured out.

They need a robber defensive look (how Alabama try’s to play defense) for penn state they also need a guy spying to wait for the perimeter run if they can do that they win the problem is I haven’t seen them run that defense style at all.

Amen, brother. I hope Ohio State pulles this game out with a win. Still got to worry about Indiana.

Cheeky?! 😂😂😂

Wish I knew I would bet it

HOT TAKE🔥: Ohio State will lose to Penn State Indiana and Michigan

Homer

Love ya and appreciate ya. Chip Kelly kept all the same coaches..in place...êxcept 2...when he became the head coach at Oregon. Put another way...Oregon..was already on their way up. Put another way, you are slightly over rating Chip Kelly.
