Ohio State is looking to return to the B1G Championship Game this season, and the Buckeyes started off hot in Week 1!
New quarterback Justin Fields led the charge, putting up strong numbers quickly. Ohio State rode that performance to a comfortable win over FAU, and Fields’ performance is hopefully a good sign of big things to come.
Now in Week 2, it’s never too early to take a peek ahead! The Buckeyes will take on Cincinnati this week, but it is interesting to see how the team is projected to do the rest of the way.
According to ESPN’s FPI, the Buckeyes are favored in most of their games the rest of the way. The two games that they are underdogs? Against Penn State and on the road against Michigan.
Here is the rest of Ohio State’s schedule and the win probability according to the FPI:
- Sept. 7 vs Cincinnati: 75.8%
- Sept. 14 @ Indiana: 72.7%
- Sept. 21 vs Miami (OH): 96.3%
- Sept. 28 @ Nebraska: 68.7%
- Oct. 5 vs Michigan State: 64.0%
- Oct. 18 @ Northwestern: 76.0%
- Oct. 26 vs Wisconsin: 64.7%
- Nov. 9 vs Maryland: 78.8%
- Nov. 16 @ Rutgers: 85.9%
- Nov. 23 vs Penn State: 37.8%
- Nov. 30 @ Michigan: 29.5%
