Ohio St vs. Minnesota
The Buckeyes will travel to Huntington Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota to take on the Golden Gophers for a Thursday night lights Big Ten showdown. Ryan Day looks to start another Buckeye season with championship admirations with a win on Thursday.
Ohio State, just like many other Big Ten and SEC schools, continues to lose much of their high-level talent to the NFL each year. What Ohio State and these other teams seem to do well is reload and keep themselves at the top of the rankings year in and year out.
On Thursday night, the spotlight will be on the first-year quarterback for the Buckeyes, C.J. Stroud. He looks to fill the shoes of Justin Fields and bring his team to their first Big Ten win of the season.
The 2021 Buckeye squad will be led by their explosive running backs and solid receiving core. This is the perfect formula to help ease a rookie quarterback into his new role. They can also look to expose Minnesota’s young secondary.
Minnesota will rely on their star running back, Mohamed Ibrahim, and their three-year starter at quarterback, Tanner Morgan. In just seven games last season, Ibrahim posted over 1,000 rushing years and 15 touchdowns.
Ohio State holds a 45-7 record against the Gophers and the last time the two teams met, the Buckeyes defeated Minnesota 30-14 back in 2018.
