Ohio State could sneak in to the playoffs as one-loss champion. They would need some help from other conferences and they also need to crush teams.

Ohio State won four straight and have scored 50 or more points in each game and have racked up more than 500 yards each time. The margin of cover last four games is 20 points.

Redshirt freshman quarterback J.T. Barrett getting better since V Tech loss 17 touchdown passes and one interception in four games. He took over for injured Heisman candidate Braxton Miller.

A blowout is a statement for future and for Barrett to establish himself as a Heisman candidate. So with a team that needs style points to make the playoffs and a QB who needs to pile up numbers to be a serious Heisman contender, we look for a blowout.
