Ohio State vs Northwestern predictions

Bill Rabinowitz, The Columbus Dispatch: Ohio State 45, Northwestern 7

“Two years ago, the Windy City lived up to its name, then Buckeyes traveled to Evanston. Passing was nearly impossible, and OSU was happy to escape with a 21-7 win. Winds are expected to be milder at Wrigley Field on Saturday, and the Buckeyes should be rolling. Northwestern has come back down to earth after a surprisingly successful season in 2023. There’s no reason to believe the Wildcats can throw a scare into Ohio State.”

Joey Kaufman, The Columbus Dispatch: Ohio State 38, Northwestern 7

“Wind gusts of more than 40 mph added an obstacle for the Buckeyes when they last visited Northwestern in 2022. Unless similar conditions reach Wrigley Field on Saturday, this game should be much more lopsided. The Wildcats needed overtime to beat Purdue, the ten stor’s last-ranked team, two weeks ago, one of their only two wins over Power Four conference opponents.Don’t overlook the opportunity for Ohio State to shut out another conference foe out, something it hasn’t done twice in a season twice since 1996.”

Rob Oller, The Columbus Dispatch: Ohio State 46, Northwestern 6

“It’s Wrigley Field, so it’s only fitting that the Buckeyes finally find a way to hit a home run ball with their deep passing game. The outlook calls for temperatures in the mid-50s and 10 mph winds, unlike the windy day two years ago , so expect Will Howard to have a big day on the air.

Bill Bender, Sporting News: Ohio State 38, Northwestern 7

“Northwestern averages 19.2 points per game. game, and it’s not going to work against the Buckeyes, who rank first in the FBS in total defense (250.8 ypg.) and second in scoring defense (10.7 ppg.). Ohio State has won the last 10 meetings by an average of 28.1 points per game. match. Will Howard will throw for multiple TDs in his eighth straight game, and the Buckeyes won’t look past Indiana.”
