ESPN’s FPI predicts outcome of Ohio State-Nebraska showdown
Published:
Ohio State is looking to continue its winning ways on Saturday as it travels to Lincoln to take on Nebraska.
The Buckeyes have been 1 of the best teams in the country ever since losing to Oregon on Sept. 11. They’ve rattled off 6 straight wins to get to 7-1 and only have to win out to get to Indianapolis.
Quarterback CJ Stroud has been excellent in his first season as the starter. Through 8 games, he has 2,270 yards passing with 23 touchdowns and 3 interceptions. Add in freshman running back TreVeyon Henderson being a tank and it’s easy to see why this team has won so many games.
ESPN’s FPI has the Buckeyes as a heavy favorite against a 2-6 Cornhuskers team. According to the FPI, the Buckeyes have an 82.6% chance of coming away with the victory.
Nebraska has played some top teams in the B1G tough this season (Michigan, Purdue) but it’s going to be even more of a tall order to beat OSU.
Kickoff will be at Noon ET on Saturday.
