Buckeye Breakdown

Jaxon Smith-Njigba's career day led the Buckeyes to a 26-17 victory over Nebraska. The game was closer than many Buckeye fans would have hoped, but Ohio State made plays when needed to secure the win.

Brendan Gulick, Andrew Lind and Tommy Zagorski are live from Lincoln for our Instant Analysis Postgame Show on BuckeyesNow!

Ohio State is heading west to play a Nebraska team who's record probably doesn't indicate how well they've played in 2021. The Buckeyes are currently ranked No. 5 in the College Football Playoff and they have some work to do to get in the tournament at the end of the year. They are reasonably heavy favorites on Saturday afternoon, so they'll need to take care of business convincingly.

Brendan Gulick and Tommy Zagorski preview the game and share their predictions for a final score on this week's Buckeye Breakdown game preview show!
