Dan Mullen identifies Penn State as biggest threat to Ohio State in Big Ten

The Ohio State Buckeyes are clearly the top team in the Big Ten this year. They’ve got a loaded roster with weapons all over the place. There’s one big question that everybody wants to know. Who in the Big Ten will be the biggest challenger for the Buckeyes? Ahead of Friday night’s VT-Miami matchup, ESPN’s Dan Mullen shared his thoughts.

“I think it’s Penn State. And I know they haven’t been tested a lot early in this season. But they’re more explosive offensively this year. They have a dynamic duo in the backfield in Singleton and Kaytron Allen. They have a quarterback, Drew Allar, that’s getting the ball down the field finally. With explosive plays,” Mullen explained.

“And we know in big moments, they play well defensively. I think the schedule shapes up well for them. With an opportunity for them to get to the Big Ten Championship game. And if you get into the championship game, it’s a one game shot. You can get that title. I think this is the year Penn State has the opportunity to get into the championship game and then compete against Ohio State,” Mullen finished.
