On Saturday, Penn State and Ohio State will face off in one of the most highly anticipated games of the college football season. Ohio is the No. 4 team in the country, and Penn State is No. 3.
Of course, with such a high-ranked matchup, there are a lot of eyes on the game, which means there is very little room for mistakes from the referees.
