Ohio St needs style points right now, so they will not let off the gas. Buckeyes will basically name the score. Our defense may hang for a bit, but eventually they will wear out because our offense is so bad.

OSU - 56
NU - 17
OSU doesn't need style points, they just need to win out to get in the playoff.

Ohio St can pretty much name the score. Frost is in over his head. If he were smart he’d just run the ball to shorten the game but we all know that won’t happen. He will try to get cute with the play calling and it is going to be a turnover fest again.

I'm laughing at all of these stupid *** predictions. My prediction tOSU won't cover.

Then I will be back to throw everything in your faces because I can as just like the OU predictions you all laid your asses bare for everyone to see. Go ahead and keep living in your fantasy worlds. Meanwhile I'll be back after the game to laugh at yall

I'm not sure why anyone would think that Nebraska can score more than 24 points in this game. They can't score; they can move the ball, but they can't score. For Nebraska to beat tOSU they have to hold them to 23 or less. That's not going to happen.

tOSU - 38
NU - 17

If the score ends up being an Ohio State win by less than 17 points, it will be due to OSU coming out a bit flat and slow to start the game. If they come out ready to play, it's going to get ugly fast.

The players already quit after the Michigan game.

You guys are crazy with some of the blowout loss predictions. You need to go read some of the OSU boards. Many are nervous about this game and actually feeling a lot more confident about the MSU and Michigan games. This is a road game for them.

I really think that Nebraska is the most dangerous team - with a losing record - in the country. Yes, I realize it's been disappointing but look at your losses. 4 of the losses - against current ranked teams of Michigan, MSU, Oklahoma, and Minnesota - have been by 7 points or less. The talent is obviously there.

I think your biggest issue - at least in the games I watched - is the hot-cold play of your QB Martinez. He'll look spectacular one minute and then do something totally boneheaded the next. That last fumble against Michigan in the last minutes of the game sys it all. That was Nebraska's game to win - not lose. There's a good reason OSU fans are nervous and it comes down to how Nebraska's offense performs against their defense. This has the smell of an huge upset

It will be ugly from the beginning. We'll get a few late-in-the-game scores to make it look less ugly than it really was.

I hope I'm wrong, but I think we're prime for a beatdown.

Are you trolling the fanbase? I can assure you a vast majority of OSU fans are not worried about the upset. I personally think Nebraska will play well and probably cover the spread but that's about it.

Nebraska needs to go 3-0 in their final three games to become bowl eligible and sew up that coveted bid to the Quick Lane Bowl in Detroit, so somehow they need to find a "miracle on ice" type of win on Saturday to keep hope alive.

I wouldn't listen to that. We are going to get drilled this weekend and Frost may not even finish out the year. The one hope is that Day and Frost seem to be friendly, so I doubt Day really runs it up if given the opportunity.

You need to understand that the close games we played were with 6th year senior Deontai O. Williams at safety. His backup, Myles Farmer, and Ohio State's receiving corps is not a matchup I like at all. I believe he is going to be tested a lot by their WRs and ruthlessly exploited. I thought our staff might even play a different safety this week to compensate but I saw he got his blackshirt this week, so it looks like he is full go for Saturday.

Ohio St. 91
Nebraska 24

Day elects to pass for 2 4th quarter TDs in the last 3 minutes of the game and says sorry to his "buddy" Scott Frost after the game. So many dejected Husker fans will have left the stadium by then that you will be able to hear an old lady shriek on the telecast during the last OSU TD.

Unless Joe Bauserman is declared eligible, I think Aosu wins comfortably. Say 48 - 17. Hope I'm wrong.

I don't see this being much of a game at all. 3/4 of the stands will be empty in the 4th quarter.

Ohio State will attack deep, short, quick passes, and run circles around the Nebraska rush defense.

Nebraska offense will get a few big plays but that will basically be it.

Ohio State: 52
Nebraska: 10
Does it matter, who will be watching?

A win over Ohio State would totally save the season and certainly save Scott Frost's job if the team could ride that momentum into the final two games. Statistically, a Nebraska team at home can give Ohio State all they want if OSU doesn't bring their A game and this Nebraska team does seem to focus when playing against great opponents. But I'll say...

Ohio State 42

Looks like Ohio State is favored by 14.5 to 15.5 depending on the sportsbook. Still surprised it's that low.

I was going to say 41 - 20 but I just saw some video of a few of our guys talking trash to some OSU players that the refs had to break up, so now I'll go with 45 - 16.
