Ohio State at Penn State

Premium Pick

Penn State opened the season with a weak out-of-conference schedule, but once Big-10 play started, the record began to erode and they have gone just 3-8 over their last 11 games. One thing holding this team back has been the offense. The Nittany Lions shoot just 41% as a team, and are off a game where they shot just 35.5%. There is yet another issue for this team - they have been getting hammered off the glass at -8.2 rebounds per game in their last 10. When you combine poor shooting and getting punished off the glass, the wins will be hard to come by. Ohio State has been plus off the glass in their last 11 games, and have been the better shooting team all season. Play Ohio State on the moneyline.
