- Rutgers 74, Ohio State 71: I’m not trying to be Debbie Downer here, but this team feels like it’s one that isn’t solid and composed enough yet to get things done on the road in the Big Ten. The Scarlet Knights haven’t looked great this year, but until the Buckeyes grow up in crucial situations and environments, it’s hard to see them winning in the rough and tumble Big Ten. I hope I’m wrong, but it feels like one of those weeks as an OSU fan.
- Spread: Ohio State -9
- Over/Under: 152
- Money line: Ohio State -445, Rutgers +345
