The Buckeyes don't have to be the only winner this weekend.

On Saturday, No. 4 Ohio State will travel to the Keystone State, where it will face off against head coach James Frankin and No. 3 Penn State at noon. 

The Buckeyes have dominated the Nittany Lions, winning seven consecutive matchups dating back to 2017. In honor of Ohio State's endless wins over Penn State, we want to pass on the Buckeyes' winning ways to one of our loyal readers. To do that, we are offering a chance to win a $100 gift card to the fabled Eleven Warriors Dry Goods Store. All you have to do is tell us the future!

Here's how to win:

The Prediction

Ohio State has the best running back duo in college football with TreVeyon Henderson and Quinshon Judkins.

This season, Henderson and Judkins have led the Buckeyes' rushing attack, which ranks No. 30 nationally in yards per game (188.1) and No. 15 nationally in yards per attempt (5.5). Coming off the Nebraska game, in which the star ballcarriers combined for just 54 yards on 20 attempts, it's unclear how Ohio State's ground game will perform against Penn State's talented defense.

That makes rushing yards the perfect stat to prognosticate this week.

Correctly predict Ohio State's total rushing yards on Saturday and win a $100 gift card from Eleven Warriors Dry Goods. As always, roll with the Price is Right rules – the prize will be awarded to the closest prediction without going over.

Good luck!
