COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Is No. 2 Ohio State on an inevitable march to another championship — or is it too early to get a good read on the Buckeyes’ potential? The Buckeyes went into their off week with spotless 6-0 record (3-0 in the Big Ten). The season’s second half tilts on two key games — Oct. 29 at No. 16 Penn State and Nov. 26 against No. 4 Michigan in Columbus. Ohio State’s other second-half opponents, Iowa, Northwestern, Indiana and Maryland, will likely be double-digit underdogs. Of those, Maryland could present the most interesting challenge.
