The No. 3-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes are gearing up to host the Purdue Boilermakers in a Week 11 Big Ten matchup at Ohio Stadium on Saturday.
Ohio State (7-1, 4-1 Big 10) aims to maintain its winning momentum after a hard-fought 20-13 victory over No. 6-ranked Penn State (7-1, 4-1 Big 10). Meanwhile, Purdue (1-7, 0-5 Big 10) is looking for a turnaround after their close overtime loss to Northwestern.
With just four games left in their regular season schedule, Ohio State is focused on cementing its position in the College Football Playoff picture. Saturday’s matchup against Purdue could be crucial in the Buckeyes’ journey to the postseason.
