Game is on BTN at 4pm. Buckeyes are favored by 27.5 with an O/U of 49 which suggests a final score of around 39-11.
A Minnesota win would keep the Gophers in the running for the B1G-W but only if Illinois simultaneously wins in Iowa City.
For the Buckeyes this game is irrelevant in terms of the CG as the winner of THE GAME will get that regardless of the outcome of this week's UMD/UM and tOSU/MN games unless justice is delivered and the cheaters are banned from the postseason this year.
It would not surprise me if both tOSU and UM underperformed this weekend but, IMHO, it would take an epic underperformance for either to actually lose.
