XICHIGAN WEEK
Ohio State blows out Indiana, 38-15. Now, it's time to do the same to That Team Up North.
Lee Corso has a good head on his shoulders.
A Brutus head to be exact.
Just minutes before No. 3 Ohio State and No. 7 Penn State kick off what should be an instant classic, Corso picked the Buckeyes to defeat the Nittany Lions, donning the Brutus headgear for a 40th time on College Gameday.

Guest picker CJ Stroud picked the Buckeyes to the surprise of no one and so did the rest of the set including...Desmond Howard.
Ohio State is 26-13 in games Corso rocks the Brutus head to close the show.
While the Buckeyes are a modest 4.5-point favorite for the battle in Ohio Stadium, over 63% of bets on the game have come in on the Nittany Lions.
Ohio State is 39-18 all-time when ESPN's College Gameday is onsite for one of their games including a 17-14 win over Notre Dame in South Bend earlier this season.
The Buckeyes are 9-2 versus Penn State with College Gameday on hand for the festivities and are currently riding a four-game win streak in such contests. Penn State hasn't beaten the Buckeyes with College Gameday on campus since a 13-6 win in Ohio Stadium back in 2008.
