Game data: Ohio State vs Illinois

A year ago, Ohio State was heavily favored to win at Purdue. But the Buckeyes had five turnovers and got upset 26-18 by the 1-5 Boilers. This Illinois team is probably better than that Purdue team and, if things bounce their way, probably just as capable. Ohio State can't allow the false sense of security built in by blowout wins over Ohio and Eastern Michigan to cloud its thinking.
