Rutgers vs. Ohio State has college football fans on the edge of their seats. The game is set to kick off at 12 p.m. ET/9 a.m. PT at Ohio Stadium in Columbus, which is Ohio State’s last home game of the season.
The Scarlet Knights are coming off an open weekend and a 35-20 victory over Maryland, although it’s important to keep in mind that Ohio State has been undefeated against Rutgers in prior matchups. Ohio State is also coming into this matchup following a win against UCLA 48-10. This marks the two teams 11th matchup.
Ohio State has a few powerhouse players on their side including safety Caleb Downs, wide receiver Carnell Tate and linebacker Arvell Reese, while overall, their defense seems to be the team’s strongest suit. Rutgers’ key player this season is quarterback Athan Kaliakmanis who leads the teams “red-hot” offense which is a stand-out. With that in mind, it should be interesting to see how Ohio State’ s iron-clad defensive line deals with Rutgers’ sneaky, but strong offensive line.
