Josh Pate, college football analyst and host of the Late Kick Podcast, has a bold claim for the remainder of Ohio State’s season.

Pate believes that the Buckeyes, who have faced just one ranked team so far this season, “are not going to be challenged” in conference play until the last game of the season against rival Michigan.

 

The comment comes ahead of Ohio State’s rivalry game on Saturday against No. 13 Penn State. The Nittany Lions have lost just one game this season and are looking to pull out a big win this week.

The comment on the surface might rattle the feathers of Ohio State fans. After all, Pate is essentailly saying Ohio State has not played anyone. Tut Pate made sure to clear the air on what he thinks about the legitimacy of the Buckeyes.

“I’m not questioning them at all,” Pate said. “I’ve got them rated No. 1 in the country right now.”

Let’s see if Ohio State has what it takes to take down the Wolverines in late November
