Ohio State's has an interesting history in the two weeks before it plays Michigan over the last decade. Typically two weeks out from The Game, the story shows us a dominant team. But one week out, it can often look like a team looking ahead to its rival. The 2026 season presents a similar scenario with games against Northwestern and Nebraska. Two teams heading into a pivotal season but potentially heading in opposite directions. Stephen Means and Stefan Krajisnik spend this episode of Buckeye Talk diving into both teams and what could be waiting on Ohio State in mid-November.
