Fox insider Joel Klatt makes his Ohio State vs Oregon prediction known

The No. 2 Ohio State Buckeyes go on the road to play the No. 3 Oregon Ducks on Saturday in one of the biggest college football games this week. It's arguably the most-anticipated matchup in the Big Ten this season.

Heading into the game, Ohio State is a slight -154 favorite to defeat Oregon. It's a game many fans were torn on, but Fox analyst Joel Klatt expects the Buckeyes to go on the road and get the win.

“Buckeyes getting the win against Oregon," Klatt said on his The Joel Klatt Show. "Ohio State does well on the ground if they do that they win the game I think Ohio State goes on the road and they get the win. Ohio State is favorite by three and a half I actually think they cover that three and a half. I like Ohio State something like 28-22.”

Whoever wins the game between Ohio State and Oregon will have a great chance of at least making it to the Big Ten Championship game.

Ohio State not concerned about long travel to Oregon

A key factor in the Buckeyes-Ducks game on Saturday is the fact that Ohio State is going on the road and traveling across the country.

This college football season, teams traveling multiple time zones have struggled, but Ohio State coach Ryan Day isn't worried about it.

“Yeah, I don’t really see it as much of a challenge that way,” Day said, via SpringfieldNewsSun. “I think it’s a four-and-a-half-hour flight. That’s a couple hours more than Nebraska.

“We’re going to stay on East Coast time, and I think we’ve got a good plan. We’re going to stay on our time schedule, and the time of the game and everything fits kind of how we practice. So we’re not going to look too much into it.”

According to college football analyst Jon Wilner of the Seattle Times, Big Ten teams traveling at least two time zones for conference games are 1-8 so far this season.

Ohio State vs. Oregon will kick off at 7:30 p.m. ET. The game can be watched on NBC.
