This is an 8* play on Ohio State.

We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we almost always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics. Sometimes these stats can be overrated and other times they help foreshadow the outcome of a contest.

This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant ATS trends and common sense:

As note that Ohio State is 14-8 ATS in its last 22 off a loss against a conference rival, while Michigan is just 4-10 ATS as a favorit this year, just 1-3 ATS off a loss against a conference rival and just 4-7 ATS at home.

The bottom line: Michigan comes in off a poor performance against in-state rival Michigan State. Ohio State has lost two straight, unable to hang with Maryland at home last night. We think the desperate Buckeyes take advantage of a Wolverines team which continues to get too much respect. Play on OHIO STATE.
