According to SeatGeek, a website that crunches ticket prices, tickets for the game have shot up to become the most expensive ticket to the Shoe since the 2010 season.

In particular, Buckeyes quarterback J.T. Barrett.
Clinton was in town to deliver a speech on campus and, accoridng to Cleveland.com, spent about 20 minutes at practice and posed for a photo with star running back Ezekiel Elliott. Hill is focused on Wisconsin, MI State, Pittsburgh and West Virginia. “There’s not a lot of hangover, either way, and they’re winning”. MI State (9-1, 5-1 Big Ten) needed a last-second fumble return to beat MI and has looked far from dominant while navigating a number of injuries.
OSU and MSU both sit in the penthouse of expectations this year, and the game could go either way on Saturday, but there’s reason to believe that one team has the upper hand over the other.
So will the Buckeyes hold, or can Cook and Burbridge burn another elite pass defense this Saturday?
This isn’t so much something to watch for as it is something to appreciate.
Any outside chance Utah had to reach the playoff went down in flames when they lost at Arizona last week.
The same is true with Urban Meyer. However, MI State does come into this game banged up. I didn’t know what I was going to do.
Cook comes into this game with very impressive stats. He only has four sacks but is more than doing his job.
Given what we’ve seen, as well as the numbers that back it up, It’s hard to imagine MI State reversing their 1st down struggles against this defense. That being said, the Spartan offensive line has protected Cook consistently throughout the 2015 campaign – he’s only been sacked 12 times – allowing him ample time to dissect defensive units. He also ran for two touchdowns and 86 yards. Hindsight may be 20/20, but it shouldn’t have been a huge surprise.
The key for MSU is to try and make the Buckeyes one dimensional. “Last year when they were able to establish the run, that’s what the pass opened up”.
A few sportsbooks flooded with Ohio State money increased the line from 13 to 14. It happens to be the last home game of the season – and thus Senior Night. However, a win over the defending undefeated National Champions would put MI State right back into the College Football Playoff picture. The Buckeyes will need to keep him off of Barrett.
The Spartans have had serious trouble at times covering both punts and kicks, allowing opponents to gain valuable starting field position, or outright score. Northwestern’s two losses were to MI by 38 and Iowa by 30.
Well, here’s what we’ve all been waiting for. Defensively, MI State yields 243.0 yards in passing and 121.0 yards in rushing.
“I think we have talent to play with the top-10 teams in the country, I do”, said Dantonio, whose team is 5-1 in its last six games against top-10 teams.

“This is probably the most balanced football offense that we’re going to see”, Ash said. No matter how the next two weeks shake up, they’ll finish 38-10 (.792) in the regular season. We couldn’t have been in a better call, had better coverage’. He’s one of the most athletic linebackers Dantonio has ever coached and he has become the best of the bunch this season. He’s the best quarterback in the conference and he dissected a tough MI secondary earlier in the year.
