Joel Klatt takes a look at what to expect in four of the biggest college football games in Week 8, including Penn State-Ohio State.
This is a matchup that always delivers, which is why I'm so excited to call it. I wrote a lot about this from a 30,000-foot view and why it means so much for each program, but let's get into more of the actual football part of it here.
It could be the time for Penn State to defeat Ohio State and take that next step as a program, but it's still a strong Ohio State team on the other side that has won the last six matchups between the two teams. It still has, who both dominated in last year's 44-31 win for the Buckeyes. Tuimoloau decided to take over the game when Ohio State was leading, 16-14, at the start of the fourth quarter, playing like the best player on the planet for 15 minutes.
Ultimately, when you have a game this big, it comes down to quarterback play. We've got two young quarterbacks that are obviously very talented.But Allar hasn't been in an environment in his career that'll be even close to the one he'll face against Ohio State. That doesn't mean I don't think he'll play well. I think he has the talent to do so. He didn't play too well in Penn State's road games earlier this season.
Remember that huge win Tennessee had last year? We all do. There are probably still some Volunteer fans swimming in the river after that incredible game.
