Welcome to the sixth installment of Friday Night Fights.

This series tests your clairvoyance around the upcoming Ohio State game and weekend festivities. It also gauges how good or bad your #takes are, should you choose to defend them in the comments.

First, here are the results and some prime takes from last week's Fights:

rutgers cannon

Rutgers fired the cannon when the game began, when the 1st half ended and when the game was over. Those are disqualified. Congrats, barely 8% of you!

rutgers passing

The Scarlet Knights ended up with 92 yards in the air. Remember Ohio State's dead last 130th-ranked FBS passing yards allowed defense? It's now 42nd and a-climbin'. Indiana and Oklahoma aren't waltzing through that tunnel again. Thank God.

nice

Nice. Rutgers held the ball for almost 36 minutes, squeezed nearly 3 yards per carry out while trying in earnest to end the game and ended with just 117 rushing yards and a 56-point deficit to show for it.

Almost 90% of you correctly predicted this. Nice.

saquon simmie

On a day where nearly nothing went right for the Hoosiers, Simmie still had five grabs for 44 yards and a touchdown. Saquon had a rough day on the ground with just 56 yards on 20 carries, but he ran the opening kick back for a touchdown, threw a touchdown pass and caught four balls for 51 yards. They both showed up, as expected. 

mvp

Dobbins had six touches for 53 yards on Saturday night. Barrett broke another Ohio State record. It's a long season!
