After months of hype and speculation, Black Saturday has arrived for No. 1 Ohio State.
The Buckeyes (6-0) are set to wear black alternate jerseys when they host James Franklin and Penn State (5-1) for a prime-time showdown in Ohio Stadium.
The Nittany Lions pushed the Buckeyes harder than any team during conference play last season. Christian Hackenberg rallied Penn State from a 17-0 halftime deficit to force overtime, but J.T. Barrett turned in a clutch performance to help Ohio State escape with a 31-24 double-overtime win in Beaver Stadium.
Can Penn State get revenge, or will the Buckeyes register an important win and continue their playoff push?
