Penn State has won 11 in a row and brings the No. 1 defense in the nation into this showdown. QB Drew Allar (12 TDs, 0 INTs) leads a balanced offense anchored by RBs Kaytron Allen (375 yards, 4.8 ypc) and Nicholas Singleton (362 yards). They've rolled over everybody, including West Virginia (38-15) and Iowa (31-0). The defense is allowing 8 points per contest while getting 4.5 sacks per game. Penn State is 32-19 ATS after allowing 14 points or less, plus 22-10 ATS after a cover as double-digit chalk. Ohio State is also undefeated but hasn't rolled over everyone, squeezing out a 17-14 win over Notre Dame on a very late TD along with scoring just 23 points on Indiana as a 30-point favorite. The offense is banged up with injuries and the Nittany Lions are 18-9 ATS versus teams that average 6.25 yards per play. Play Penn State.
