When Ohio State takes on Purdue, it will be about redemption — redemption for the loss against Wisconsin, Redemption for last year’s lost to Purdue and redemption for no other reason than we’re all a little pissed off right now. Purdue limps into Ohio Stadium today (literally) with almost no passing game, some success on the ground and a solid week reviewing tape of Wisconsin running right up the middle against the Buckeyes.
With an Ohio State secondary just waiting to capitalize on errant Purdue passes, look for a ground game which the Buckeyes should have no trouble shutting down. Defensively, the Boilermakers may give Pryor something to think about but unless they can force the turnovers, this is our game. .
Last I looked, the Buckeyes were 23 point favorites. Expect them to cover and then some. Running the score is all the fashion around the BCS these days and at this point, expect Tressel to flash a little style himself. Even if he does pull the starters early, their is enough anger throughout the roster to keep the scoring alive.
Game starts at 12:00 and the live chat is below. Don’t know if I’m going to be able to make it. I may be watching this one on the DVR.

We got to witness some break down of Purdue’s run on film, I was not worried at all this year about smashing this team.
Get used to it, Danny Hope.
