STATE COLLEGE, Pa. – Getting caught up in the pregame hype surrounding Saturday's game at No. 4 Ohio State is one catch Penn State receiver Allen Robinson would prefer not to make.
"I'd say it's one of the bigger games I've played in, but I try not to think too much about that," Robinson said. "I take each practice day and get better and prepare for this game like any other game."
Still, Robinson is well aware that a night game in Columbus against an Urban Meyer-coached Buckeyes team that has won 19 straight is typically a circled game on the schedule. The teams have played under the lights four times since 2005, with each team winning twice.
"We know it's a big game, and it's definitely one of the games we want to win," Robinson said. "I wouldn't say it's the win streak. Even if they had a loss or a couple of losses, it's definitely a game you want to get. I mean, it's Penn State-Ohio State, and it doesn't really get much better than that."
