Welcome to the 13th 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 from last week's Fights:

running game

All you need to know about how "nervous" Urban was for Illinois - four (!) Buckeyes had more carries than Barrett did on Saturday. Weber had 11/108, Dobbins 12/51 and Barrett threw 19 passes before sitting for much of the game.

dat gap

Seriously, how did Illinois play Iowa closer than Ohio State did. How.

targeting

They need to reduce head injuries and preserve the game. Officials get into trouble when they inexplicably screw up replay or blur the line between garden variety late hits and targeting.

linebackers

We've reached the final game on the schedule and Ohio State is still trying to figure out the optimal combination/placement of its linebackers. Can you remember a season over the past 50 when this has happened? Who do they think they are, Zone Six?

If you don't like seeing his name, it's probably best that you never look at the Ohio State record book. Like, forever.
