Major
(NCAAF) Northern Illinois vs. Ohio State,
Point Spread: -35.00 | -107.00 Ohio State (Home)
Result: Loss
Teams off dominating games rushing under very specific parameters are 313-199-4. Though not a ton of situations, fading an undefeated team getting 30 or more has been profitable.

No worry about look ahead for Ohio State with home game to Western Michigan and at Indiana next two games,

NIU does have good front-line talent, but depth of Ohio State will wear them down. The 2015 roster includes 43 players who were not on the active roster a year ago with 41 true freshmen on the list. Urban Meyer said he will not hesitate to go from Cardale Jones to J.T. Barrett if offense needs a spark. So a motivated Heisman candidate will be relieved by another one.

NIU offense is actually built around establishing the run. That will be great in most games where they are likely protecting a lead or playing in close game. Once they fall behind, they are in bad shape.
