ESPN’s SP+ is back with more predictions as another week of college football brings an exciting matchup between Ohio State and Maryland on Saturday. Both teams come into the game undefeated, looking to pull ahead in the B1G East race.

The Buckeyes had their bye week last week after a thrilling matchup against Notre Dame that saw Ohio State pull away at the last second on a touchdown. While Ohio State has certainly established itself as a top team in the nation, a win over a tough B1G opponent would be huge.

Meanwhile for the Terps, they come into the game on the heels of a dominating win over Indiana last week. Maryland has looked solid to start out the season, but it is still looking for a signature win over a ranked opponent. Beating Ohio State would certainly be the signature win they want.

Ahead of the matchup, ESPN’s SP+ has made its prediction for the showdown. ESPN’s SP+ is a predictive measure that looks at the most predictable aspects of football to formulate its pick.
