Week 3 of the college football season is already here, and Ohio State will be playing in one of the top games of the week!

The Buckeyes have looked impressive in beginning the season 2-0. Ohio State’s offense is rolling behind QB Dwayne Haskins and a talented duo at RB in Mike Weber and J.K. Dobbins. On the other side of the ball, the defense is terrifying opposing teams with a ferocious defensive line led by Nick Bosa.

Early signs from 2018 show that the Buckeyes may be one of the best teams in the country, but this week’s game will be their first big challenge of the season. Ohio State will take on No. 15 TCU Saturday in a matchup of undefeated ranked opponents.

It is one of the most anticipated early-season showdowns, and ESPN released the predictions of a panel of college football reporters heading into Week 3. It comes as no surprise, but 14 of the 17 ESPN reporters picked Ohio State to come out on top.

Sam Khan Jr., Ivan Maisel, and Ryan McGee were the three reporters to pick TCU to win, and each one had the Horned Frogs winning in a close battle. Of those reporters who picked the Buckeyes to win, eight also picked Ohio State to win by 10+ points.

Kickoff for the game is set for 8 pm EST Saturday on ABC.
