The 2024 NCAA Football season is reaching its climax, with every game carrying significant weight for teams vying for conference championships and postseason berths. Late-season Big Ten matchups like this can often have far-reaching implications, affecting only the teams involved and the entire conference landscape.
Ohio State, under the leadership of head coach Ryan Day, has once again established itself as a national powerhouse. The Buckeyes’ high-powered offense, 11th in the nation at 38.6 points per game, has been nearly unstoppable. Their defense has been equally impressive, 2nd in the nation at just 10.7 points allowed per game. With their eyes set on both a Big Ten title and a top pot in the College Football Playoff, Ohio State can’t afford a slip-up against Northwestern.
Northwestern, guided by head coach David Braun, has slipped back after finishing 8-5 in the previous season. The Wildcats haven’t played many competitive games as of late, with only a 26-20 victory last Saturday having a finishing score within a touchdown. The atmosphere at Ryan Field should be electric as Northwestern seeks to pull off a monumental upset.
