00:03 Not often though for Ohio State and Penn State when what we have seen
00:07 offensively in talent wise the last few years.
00:10 But these two teams predicated on defense in Ohio State just happen to have
00:15 the best offensive player in the game.
00:18 His name Marvin Harrison Jr.
00:20 11 grabs, 162 yards, a touchdown.
00:24 Donnie MHJ has had 105 receiving yards or more in five of the seven games for
00:29 Ohio State this year.
00:31 The Buckeyes win 20 to 12.
00:33 They cover as a 4.5, 5.5 point favorite.
00:37 >> Yeah, I thought Penn State would actually be the side this one with
00:40 a legitimate chance to win the game.
00:41 You might look at that Ben and say to yourself 20 to 12 man played well.
00:44 What are you gonna do with the horseshoe and away you go.
00:46 No, that wasn't the game plan here.
00:48 You took a look at Penn State who loves to be teams like UMass by 60 points here.
00:52 How exciting it is running up in front of the people in Happy Valley.
00:56 Then you go on the road and
00:57 looks like you've never played offense before here.
01:00 So all those bogus yards and
01:02 touchdowns that you've scored against inferior opponents.
01:04 Always come back to bite you for James Franklin.
01:06 Now we do have our winners and losers of the week coming up in just a little bit.
01:10 But let's just take a look at James Franklin.
01:12 What a wonderful position he sits in.
01:14 And I guess it's called Happy Valley for a reason.
01:16 Because apparently no Penn State fans ever care when you lose big football games.
01:20 Why? Cuz that's all you ever do is lose big football games.
01:23 And it'd be one thing, but man, game of the year.
01:25 We lost on a 39 yard field goal, the boys gave it their all.
01:28 Every time Penn State took the field,
01:30 they might as well took three knees and punted the football back.
01:33 They were that embarrassing.
01:34 Don't get mad, they got it together late in the game, they scored a touchdown.
01:37 This should have been a runaway route for Ohio State.
01:40 But I think Ohio State realized, guys, we don't have to do anything.
01:43 Just don't make a stupid football play.
01:45 We're gonna win this game by margin and away we go.
01:47 Credit Ohio State.
01:48 That's two games this year against top ten opponents.
01:51 When they played them, they handled their business.
01:53 That's all you ask for.
01:53 I don't care if it's winning ugly or, hey,
01:55 has Ryan Day lost a step here?
01:57 No, he hasn't.
01:57 It's football team 7-0, top five in the country, and away they go.
02:01 Good win for Ohio State.
02:02 Ridiculous performance by Penn State.
02:04 But again, don't we just expect that now,
02:06 win a game where they're supposed to maybe challenge for a Big Ten championship,
02:10 or win a big game?
