There's an article on CBS stating the question....Who is the best team in Ohio? At the beginning of the season I wouldnt have thought twice about saying the Buckeyes. But come to think of it Cinci has been playing really well. I would say through 3 games they have been as impressive as anyone in the country. 2 road victories by double digits. One against a ranked team too. OSU squeaked by Navy and looked less then impressive against the Trojans and finally dominated a neutral game with Toledo. But still Tony Pike has really put together a real nice year... as for Terrelle Pryor....pretty good but nothing great and hes leading the team in rushing...So wheres the OSU running game?

I would say there isnt much difference between these two teams. It would be a fun match up to see.
Cincinnati has a better O and OSU has a better D.
I'll take Cincinnati in a head to head battle though.

Oregon State was never ranked in the AP Poll. Cal, USC and Oregon were the only Pac-10 teams that were ever ranked in both the AP and coaches. When Oregon State was ranked they were ranked 24th by the coaches.

I'm not sure there is such a thing as a "neutral game" anywhere in the state of Ohio when Ohio State plays. On every single solitary one of the "other" schools in Ohio, on any given day you will find a 3-1 ratio of Buckeye t-shirts, jerseys, etc, to the other school.

I have to respond to this. Ohio State has not lost to an in-state opponent in over 80 years. I know that Cincinnati has looked good the past two years, but they have only played two teams with an overall talent level similar to the Buckeyes, Oklahoma and Virginia Tech. They were beaten by two touchdowns in each of those games. I think an OSU-Cincy game would generate a lot of hype in the state of Ohio, but I think OSU would win the game, probably by a convincing score.

Tony Pike is the best QB in Ohio
