Ohio State on upset alert vs. Minnesota
There is a lot of game left and it’s far from over but the momentum is all on the side of Minnesota.
Mohamed Ibrahim has been unstoppable in the first half and a vulnerable Ohio State defense that’s down both starting cornerbacks has had some rough moments trying to defend Dylan Wright who scored the first touchdown for Minnesota.
With the Buckeyes on upset alert, you know Michigan, Michigan State, Penn State, Clemson, Alabama fans, and really, college football fans around the country are hoping Minnesota can pull it off.
