Ohio State football is 8-0, the No. 1 team in the country, and outside of a 14-7 win over Texas in the season opener, has not had a game decided by fewer than 18 points.

Purdue is 2-7, has not won since Sept. 6, and has just lost leading rusher Devin Mockobee to season-ending ankle surgery.

Yes, the Boilermakers have the Buckeyes right where they want them.

That’s a little tongue in cheek, obviously, but Purdue has a history of upsetting OSU at Ross-Ade Stadium, having scored four notable victories over Ohio State over the last 16 years. In 2018, Purdue’s record when the teams played was 3-3. It was 1-6 in 2013. The Boilermakers were 4-5 before beating the Buckeyes in 2011. And in 2009, it was a 1-5 Purdue squad that knocked off Ohio State.

Does this year’s Purdue team have another shocker in store? Follow our live coverage below.

Ohio State vs Purdue predictions

Here is what our experts at The Columbus Dispatch think about today’s game between the Ohio State Buckeyes and Purdue Boilermakers.

  • Joey Kaufman: Ohio State 45, Purdue 3 | While the Boilermakers are rebuilding under first-year coach Barry Odom and remain winless in the Big Ten, they have been more competitive this year. The average margin of their six conference losses is just 11 points, and three of the last four have been by one score or less. But a season-ending ankle injury to star running back Devin Mockobee only adds to the plate of Ryan Browne, who has thrown the second-most interceptions among Big Ten quarterbacks. It won’t be much different than last year’s game in Columbus, though Purdue can avoid being shut out.  
  • Rob Oller: Ohio State 48, Purdue 7 | The Boilermakers have not won a Big Ten game since beating Indiana in the finale of the 2023 regular season, going 1-15 over that stretch. Over the same span, the Buckeyes have gone 12-3. So you’re saying there’s a chance? Never say never, but, er, never. Purdue is better than a year ago, and actually has been competitive in three of its last four games, including a 21-16 loss at Michigan, but Ohio State has too many weapons on both sides of the ball for this to be anything other than an OSU “name your score.”
  • Dan Aulbach: Ohio State 42, Purdue 3 | Though the final score predictions are starting to sound like a broken record, Ohio State should have no problem this weekend at Ross-Ade Stadium with a passing offense on a roll and two Heisman campaigns underway for Julian Sayin and Jeremiah Smith.
