1) They have greatly improved over the past few games.

2) They have enough talent to upset us; specifically on the DL and RB.  QB is up and down, but if he's on, we better be prepared for a game.

3)  They have nothing to lose/we have everything to lose.

4)  They have heard how they cheated to win an NC/3 straight OSU victories 24/7 for a year (which is true,) so their motivation will be maximized.

I guarantee Ryan Day, staff and players already know this.  It's a shame we have so many fans (newbs?) that do not yet understand this rivalry. 

I've seen too many projections of Day running up the score and assumptions of an OSU victory.  I wish these people would STFU.

Go Buckeyes.
