Hey guys. I had a chance to reach out to Chip Minnich one of the editors of Men of the Scarlet and Gray who was good enough to answer some questions and give some OSU perspective. I hope you enjoy.

Also earlier this week RU Fan Jerry and I were on a podcast with Chip and Shannon Sommers. The link is in the article if interested.

As always I hope you have been enjoying my weekly bowl predictions and our Big Ten power poll.

That interview gives me some hope that we actually have a chance in this game.

The monkey wrench in it all is that they have a long winning streak going and more times than not a team will lose because they become a team that tries not to lose rather just go out an win. Couple that with the environment in our stadium at night with Barrett needing to prove himself and we could make this a close game in the first half and then who knows what happens in the second.

I can agree with some of your thought. I however have to say JT Barrett in no way has to "prove himself". He did that last year when he was blowing up B1G records. All JT needs to do is be himself and things will be fine.
