#14 Ohio State Buckeyes Versus #18 Wisconsin Badgers Live Thread [NCAA Football]
Missing The Band: Buckeyes And Badgers Meet For What Is Essentially An Elimination Game

Wisconsin is coming off a devastated loss to Michigan. Ohio State is coming off a rough stretch in which they lost to USC, and didn't beat some bad teams by nearly as much as everyone thought they should have.

Now, these two Big 10 powers who have been somewhat disappointing so far will face off in what could be a make or break game. The winner will get a nice little boost in the rankings, as well as much better positioning within the conference. The loser will lose all hope of a National Championship, and be in a much tougher position in the Big 10.

Beanie Wells is healthy again for the Buckeyes, which is a huge key for them. Wisconsin has one of the best rushing attacks in the country. PJ Hill is one of the more underrated RB's in the country, and John Clay has emerged as an unexpected hero as well, with 4 TD's already.

One thing we do know is that Wisconsin's band won't be in attendance. Children, hazing is bad, mkay?

63% of FanIQ picked the Buckeyes to win. What's your prediction? I'm not even going to pick, because my predictions have been cursed lately, but I'll admit I'm rooting for the Badgers.

I'm in a selfish conundrum on this game.  If Ohio State wins, Boise State gains one spot in one poll and it gets Wisconsin off our butts in both polls.  However, if Wisconsin wins, Ohio State would drop below us in both polls (with Wisconsin jumping us in one).  In a game like this, I have to go with my heart...I really don't like Ohio State...the last thing I want to see is them finding a way to sneak into another Champ game to be embarrassed for a third straight year...Go Badgers, I guess...but mostly go Oregon!  Trust me, it fits in.
