ESPN’s College GameDay will head to Happy Valley for Penn State vs. Ohio State to highlight Week 10 in one of the games of the year.

The two teams clash after coming off wins: 28-13 for Penn State over Wisconsin and 21-17 over Nebraska for the Buckeyes.

The announcement can be seen below.

It was a slow offensive day for Ryan Day and Ohio State Saturday, something the head coach knows can’t happen again against Penn State.

“I think it really came down to us really not being able to run the football,” Day said. “That’s what it came down to. So we really never controlled the game. We hit some big plays on them, I thought Will did a good job down the field with that. We had the big turnover here coming out, which kind of flipped the game. 

“But we talked a lot this year about leaving no doubt. Don’t leave it in the call of an official or whatever, take control of the game. Our defense went out and did that, and that’s what we needed to do. We spent a lot of time talking about that in the off week of coming out and winning the game in the fourth quarter, our defense won the game right here in the fourth quarter.”

Penn State is still undefeated and controls its destiny for the Big Ten title game. For Day and the Buckeyes, it’s an opportunity to stay near the top of the Big Ten and avoid a second loss, which would hurt any College Football Playoff hopes.

“This is a great opportunity for our team to go play, and they’re going to see the same thing: a hungry team that’s gonna play really, really hard,” Day said. “And you know we gotta figure out the run game. But if our defense can play the way it did today, and we can run the football, and you know it’s gonna be what we’re looking for going to that game. So we got (to have a) great week of preparation, but that preparation starts now.”
