Arkansas State vs Ohio State Prediction & Pick

Ohio State's offense sputtered more than expected in last week's 21-10 win over Notre Dame. The Buckeye's and Heisman co-favorite QB CJ Stroud will have a much easier time against Arkansas State's defense and roll up 600 yards offense even playing without WR Smith-Njigba again. The stat profiles and point of attack play are significantly in Ohio State's favor.

But Red Wolves QB QB James Blackman is a former Florida State transfer who isn’t going to be fazed by the environment. Good debut last week for Blackman and coach Butch Jones team in a 58-3 route of Grambling State.

Final Score Prediction: Ohio State: 48 | Arkansas State 13
