Nebraska’s dual-threat QB Adrian Martinez likely sees an exploitable Ohio State defense. But if the Buckeyes have rediscovered their run game, this won’t be close.

Expect the Buckeyes to try to establish the run against the Cornhuskers. Nebraska is much better than it was early in the year, but the disparity of talent is too big for Ohio State to lose for the second straight game.

Even though the Huskers are on a two-game winning streak — sadly, that’s a big deal — the Buckeyes surely don’t want another loss. But Nebraska’s offense is looking stronger, so I expect a high-scoring affair.
