2025 cornerback Jordyn Woods flips from Cincinnati and commits to Ohio State.
When Ohio State travels to Penn State on Sept. 29, the Buckeyes will face what head coach Urban Meyer has called "one of the top five atmospheres in college football."
The Nittany Lions are encouraging all 106,572 fans to "White Out" Beaver Stadium for what will certainly be their biggest home game of the season.
