Ohio State Football Schedule:

The Ohio State Buckeyes take a bye this week as they get ready to host the Penn State Nittany Lions, and the Bucks will need some time to prepare for the rest of their schedule.

After the Nittany Lions come to Columbus, the Buckeyes will have to travel to Iowa City for a big test against the Hawkeyes, and then they will come home for “The Game” against the Michigan Wolverines.

Penn State has struggled this season, but last week’s win over Michigan proved that Joe Paterno and company still have some fight left in them. A win today over Northwestern will be Paterno’s 400th win as head coach.

The Iowa Hawkeyes will be the biggest game left on the Ohio State schedule, but we can’t overlook the Michigan Wolverines.

The Buckeyes have the better record, and they look like they have the better team.

But you never know what could happen in this bitter rivalry.
