Maryland is off to a 5-0 start, but they will be tested on the road vs. Ohio St. The Buckeyes are off a bye and needed a miracle finish to remain unbeaten in their last game vs. Notre Dame.  The Terps have not allowed more than 20 points in any of their five games thus far. Ohio St. has not shown the explosive offense we have seen from them in recent years, as they have a new QB feeling his way through the early going. Ohio St. has turned the ball over just three times all season, and the defense is elite as they have held all four opponents to 14 points or less. Maryland is a suspect 5-0 however as their schedule has been very easy coming into this game, and I think without seeing it yet, the team speed of Ohio St. is going to be a big advantage and the defense is far superior. Ohio St. is off a bye and well rested and has won all eight meetings in this series, and have out-scored the Terps by an average of 35 PPG. Make the play on Ohio St.
