COLUMBUS, Ohio -- After surviving an encounter a little too close for comfort against Northwestern last week, Ohio State remains at home to face another tough Big Ten opponent when No. 9 Nebraska invades the Horseshoe on Saturday night in a prime-time game.The Cornhuskers suffered their first loss after opening the season with seven straight wins, falling 23-17 in overtime last Saturday at Wisconsin. The Buckeyes also played an overtime game against the Badgers two weeks earlier in Madison but managed to come out on top.Our team actually will be mad, Nebraska coach Mike Riley said. You can be sad or you can be mad, and you can have a chip on your shoulder and know we can be better and we can play hard. Well have to play hard and well to win. Thats the approach I think our team will take.Ohio State was able to bounce back from its first loss of the year to Penn State on Oct. 22 with a solid effort against Northwestern.The offense was balanced against the Wildcats with 208 yards rushing and 223 yards passing. But the Buckeyes arent finding the end zone as easily as they did during the early portion of the season.Meyer sees that as a product of playing better defenses and a young offense going through some growing pains.Youve got a bunch of young cats going and swinging hard and practicing hard, he said. So I guess Im much more positive. Do I wish that we were (scoring) 56 points and all those kind of things, sure, but were a work in progress.Ohio States defense gave up more than 400 yards at home for the first time since 2014 but made a critical stand in the fourth quarter when Northwestern had a first down at the Ohio State 5-yard line trailing by seven and forced a field goal instead of a tying touchdown.Thats what we pride ourselves on, Ohio State linebacker Chris Worley said. Its not about guys getting interceptions or forcing turnovers or guys getting sacks. Its the complete defense when the team needed us, not when were up by 40.In those crunch times when its third- or fourth-and-goal, we have to get a stop to have a shot at winning the game.The defense has allowed 400 or more yards in two of the last three games and three times this season. Northwestern, ranked No. 93 in FBS in total offense last week, managed to sustain four long drives of 75, 82, 84 and 60 yards.But the Buckeyes are clearly bending but not breaking. Thats reflected in just 13 touchdowns allowed in eight games.This week, the Buckeyes (7-1, 4-1 Big Ten) face a mobile quarterback that provides an added concern. Nebraskas Tommy Armstrong Jr. has rushed for 380 yards and six touchdowns in addition to passing for 1,764 yards and 11 touchdowns with seven interceptions. Running back Terrell Newby has rushed for 588 yards on 120 carries.The Buckeyes opened as a 16 1/2-point favorite over the Cornhuskers (7-1, 4-1) for Saturday nights clash (8 p.m. ABC), but that doesnt mean much lately. Ohio State was a 26-point favorite against Northwestern and eked out a four-point win.Very good team, Meyer said of Nebraska. Really impressed with our conference, with the quality of play, players and teams were playing, and these guys are really good.Saturdays victory was the 161st of Meyers career, setting a record for most wins by a coach in his first 15 seasons. He surpassed Oklahomas Bob Stoops, who had 160. Meyers 161-28 record gives him the highest winning percentage (.852) of any active FBS coach with 10 or more years of experience.Meyer, now a remarkable 57-5 in five seasons with the Buckeyes, has only lost twice at home in the past five years.Thats fine, but youre talking about the past right now, Nebraska wide receiver DeMornay Pierson-El said. Were in the present right now. Weve got to go out there and play our best game. And nothings going to be given. You stated their past history. Were talking about right now.Theyre a good team -- a bunch of good individuals -- but we still have to come out and play. Its still a game to be won. Its still a game to be played. Were going to focus on playing now.The two teams are in a dogfight in their respective Big Ten divisions. Ohio State is tied with Penn State a game behind Michigan in the East and Nebraska has a one-game lead in the West over four teams. The loser likely will fall out of College Football Playoff consideration.Theyre kind of a different animal, Ohio State, Cornhuskers wide receiver Jordan Westerkamp said. Theyve been so good for so long. This is a huge game for us. We know how good they are, but theyre beatable. Fernando Valenzuela Jersey . The Clippers were angry about blowing a big lead; the Kings didnt like being in that kind of hole and nearly digging themselves out only to lose. Hyun-Jin Ryu Jersey . Soukalova missed only one target and completed the 15-kilometre course in 40 minutes, 32.6 seconds for both victories in this seasons individual discipline. Darya Domracheva of Belarus was second, 34. http://www.cheapdodgersjerseyschina.com/kenley-jansen-jersey/ .875,000, avoiding arbitration. Clippards deal Monday means all eight Nationals players who filed for arbitration wound up settling before a hearing. Yasmani Grandal Jersey . Mats Zuccarello and Derek Stepan scored shootout goals, and backup goalie Cam Talbot earned his second win in two nights as the Rangers shook off a late tying tally and beat the Maple Leafs 2-1 Monday night. Joc Pederson Jersey . -- Anaheim Ducks captain and leading scorer Ryan Getzlaf has been scratched from Sunday nights game against the Vancouver Canucks because of an upper-body injury.AB de Villiers celebrated his 200th cap with a series-clinching century as South Africa completed a stunning turnaround by claiming a series-winning, five-wicket victory over England in the fifth one-day international. Captain De Villiers (101no off 97 balls) put on 125 with Hashim Amla to rally his side from 22-3 to 237-5, overhauling the tourists tally of 236 all out in 45 overs with 36 balls to spare.South Africa duly became only the third team in ODI history to win a series of five or more matches after suffering defeat in the opening two games. Watch a pick of the action from the deciding fifth ODI between South Africa and England England, for their part, missed out on becoming the first touring team to claim Test and ODI series wins on South Africa soil since Australia in 2001/02.Eoin Morgans men paid the price for a largely brittle batting display carried by Alex Hales, who struck a career-best 112 but ran out of partners as Kagiso Rabada, Imran Tahir and David Wiese picked up three wickets each.Opener Hales struck his second ODI hundred off 116 balls - eclipsing both the 99 he scored earlier in the series at Port Elizabeth and passing his previous best score of 109, made against Pakistan in Abu Dhabi in 2015.His final tally of 383 is a record for the most runs ever scored by an Englishman in a five-match ODI series.Hales shared stands of 61 and 70 with Joe Root and Ben Stokes (29) respectively but no other batsman made 15. Watch the moment Alex Hales reach his second ODI century Out-of-form skipper Eoin Morgan quickly came and went - flailing wildly at a wide Wiese delivery and snicking through to end the tour on 66 runs from five knocks, leaving England wobbling on 85-3.ddddddddddddIt might have been worse but Hales posted his fifty in rather fortunate fashion by snicking his 56th ball for four past leg stump, becoming the fifth Englishman to score five ODI fifties in a row after Geoffrey Boycott, Graham Gooch, Alec Stewart and Jonathan Trott.Ben Stokes, back at the scene of his historic double-hundred in the Test series, looked unsettled against Tahir initially before growing into the game and striking the spinner for six. De Villiers was the hero of the day as he lead his side to a 3-2 ODI series victory over England He added 70 with Hales in 11 overs before walking across his stumps to be bowled behind his legs by Kagiso Rabada, sparking a slump in which five wickets fell softly for 37 runs.Jos Buttler was bowled for his second golden duck of the series, Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid drove tamely and Chris Woakes flicked to fine leg. England gained the early wickets they desperately needed through Reece Topley, who found Quinton de Kocks inside edge before bowling Faf du Plessis first ball to make it 14-2.Rilee Rossouw, back in the side for JP Duminy, also failed when he drove the left-armer tamely to Hales at short extra cover.At 22-3 the series, let alone the match, was in the balance - Topley taking centre stage with three wickets for four runs in nine balls.It took a composed century stand from De Villiers and Amla to turn the tide before Wiese (41no) sealed victory with successive boundaries off Woakes.Watch the first Twenty20 international between South Africa and England live on Sky Sports 2 from 3.30pm on Friday.
