The stakes are high for Saturday nights battle in Columbus between two 7-1 teams, but Ohio State will show some respect as well.
The Buckeyes will pay respects to late Nebraska punter Sam Foltz when they host the Cornhuskers on Saturday night.
The Buckeyes painted a tribute outside the visiting team’s tunnel and will present Foltz’s family a helmet with 27 stickers, which represent his old number.
