2003 Washington @ Ohio State 9-28
All time OSU lead 7-3
Ohio State
The Buckeyes have one of the toughest defensive units in the nation, and they have not been tested as yet this season.
Total dominance last week against Akron was let down by 5 turnovers.
This kept the score closer than it should have been.
The QB Boeckman has looked impressive for the last two weeks, expect a huge performance this week.
The running game will be the difference and must step up a gear this week.
Washington
The Huskies have got off to a great start, a comfortable beating on the road to Syracuse followed by an impressive win over ranked Boise State have left our friends in the Northwest in high spirits.
It needs to be pointed out that Syracuse are shaping up to be a miserable team and I feel that Boise are much diminished from the great side of last year.
Quarterback Jake Locker has looked like a future NFL player and will need to be on top form if they are to win.
Last years error prone defence have looked surprisingly resolute, UW will be no pushover this week.
The pick
Come on, its still Ohio State against Washington, the media and bookmakers have gotten carried away with the Huskies good start and the line is far too short.
Ohio State will not turn the ball over, expect them to win by 10 points.
