Ohio State vs. Rutgers game preview: What the Buckeyes' defense needs to prove, plus picks and over-unders

On this Friday Buckeye Talk, Doug Lesmerises, Nathan Baird and Stephen Means preview the Ohio State-Rutgers game on Saturday with the help of Rutgers beat writer Keith Sargeant of NJ.com. Keith joins for the first half to talk about the Scarlet Knights players that OSU fans need to know, the progress of the program under Greg Schiano, and how real it was last week when Rutgers stayed within seven points of Michigan. Then Doug, Nathan and Stephen get down to an OSU offense that hasn't yet had all its pieces together; the expected healthy return of starting QB C.J. Stroud; and what the OSU defense needs to prove at Rutgers. Finally, the guys make their picks for this game, and briefly discuss Wisconsin-Michigan and Iowa-Maryland.
