GO FOR THREE rocked by PSY courtesy of PhotoshopOhio State welcomes Purdue Saturday for the third entry on their revenge checklist. The Buckeyes have already defeated Michigan State and Nebraska and will look to go three-for-three in the payback category with a win against the Boilermakers.
If this Buckeye defense has taught us anything this season, it's to count on the opponent to score some points, so predict accordingly.
To enter this contest, leave a comment with your prediction of the final score for Saturday's game against the Boilermakers. If you nail the score—or come closest—you'll get to name your shirt from the impressive collection at Eleven Warriors Dry Goods. It will make you feel good.
User craigfling took home the prize last week with his forecast of 52-34 for the Indiana game. He now has groupies. You, too, can be like craigfling.
The fine print:
- Must be 18 years-old or older.
- One entry/comment per person.
- Duplicate predictions are ineligible — first come, first serve.
- If Ohio State loses this game, there will be no contest winner. You're still free to enter a score, but there will be no shirt in sadness.
- Deadline for entries is kickoff.
Good luck!

I was ready to describe PUR as the Hoosiers without a passing game, but in fact the Boilermakers score only three points/ game less than IN, meaning that they can put points on the board. They have struggled against the good defenses they have faced, but alas good defense is not the way to describe this year's Buckeye's team. Still, for no reason based in logic I think we will do to PUR what we did to MSU defensively, though were I sane I would see Danny Hope screening and crossing-pattern-ing us to death. And since PUR is not much better than IN defensively and Devin should not drop sure TDs this week I'll say we will score as we did against IN.
52-16
not because I'm trying to shave a point off of NW Buckeye (good call, NW) but because the Spartans scored 16.
The flip side of this optimism is that if our defense does not stop PUR we might have only one game left (IL) that we can win with a defense so weak.

After reading the Purdue blog, I say 45-6 Bucks. These people sound only slightly less despondent than PSU fans were last summer. Liquor and antidepressants will be in many a shopping basket this week in West Lafayette.
Not sayin' our "D" is going to be great, but I just have a feeling we get some turnovers and this one is over early.

You're the only one with that score, though there is a 27-19, and a 27-20.
I'm not surprised at the low Purdue score, but am surprised at the low OSU score.
A lot of people have Purdue at "27" and the Bucks at 40+

OSU 28 - Purdue 24
Another shaky performance against Purdue, but a win nonetheless. The Ghost of Bollman oozes through the pores of all the Boilermakers and the offense slumps due to intoxication. Oh well, the great part about being 8 and 0 is you have a chance of going 9 and 0.
Legit prognostication here.
