Ohio State still has to beat Minnesota this week, but we’re already looking ahead to The Game.

While the Buckeyes are keeping their focus on the task at hand of beating the Golden Gophers, we aren’t expecting Ohio State to face much resistance from Minnesota in the final home game of the season. Next week’s game at Michigan, however, will make or break the Buckeyes’ season – and we get our best look before The Game at the Wolverines’ strengths and weaknesses in their 24-15 win over Penn State on Saturday.

Ohio State played its own game on Saturday night, a 38-3 win over Michigan State, and we begin this week’s show as usual by breaking down our biggest takeaways from that game. Specifically, we discuss why we think Marvin Harrison Jr. has a legitimate chance to win the Heisman Trophy, why we see Kyle McCord’s career game against Michigan State as more than just beating up on a bad opponent and which freshmen impressed us in the blowout win, among other takeaways.

Then, we turn our sights toward the team up north and break down what we saw from the Wolverines against the Nittany Lions – both in terms of where they could pose the biggest threat to Ohio State next week and where the Buckeyes may be able to exploit them. We also share our thoughts on whether the Big Ten made the right decision by suspending Jim Harbaugh (but only for games), why we personally want to see Harbaugh on the sideline next week and why we expect stronger punishments to come from the NCAA.

In the final few minutes of the show, we refocus our attention back on this week’s game and share our expectations for how Ohio State vs. Minnesota will play out.
