We already looked at who the ever-expanding crew of College GameDay picked to win the game, and now it’s time to see how former Buckeye head coach Urban Meyer and his colleagues predicted the game.

Here is who each member of the Fox Big Noon Kickoff show picked to win the collision between Ohio State and Penn State Saturday afternoon.
