It is “The Game” at The Big House and this year’s game has a special feeling. Michigan and Ohio State come into this game with identical 11-0, 8-0 BIG10 records, with the winner heading to the Big 10 title game and a CFP position pretty much locked up. The loser will have to wait and see what happens. Ohio State’s Kyle McCord has thrown for 2899 yards with 22 touchdowns and 4 picks. TreVeyon Henderson has rushed for 794 yards with 10 touchdowns. he Buckeyes for the remainder of the game. The offense is putting up 33.6 points and 429 yards per game. On the defensive side, they rank 3rd in the country, allowing 253 yards per game. They are 1st in the nation allowing a mere 144 yards passing per game. They allow 9.3 points a game. The Michigan Wolverines are 11-0 and 36-1 in the regular season over the past 3 years. J.J. McCarthy leads the offense with 18 Touchdowns while only throwing 4 picks. He has not thrown a TD pass in the last 3 games. Blake Corum has rushed for 888 yards and has scored 20 touchdowns. Donovan Edwards has added 323 yards rushing and has 24 receptions for 225 yards. Michigan is putting up 38 points per game on 400 yards of offense. On the defensive end, they are giving up 91 yards rushing (9th) and 145 yards (2nd) through the air and 9 points a game. Both OSU and Michigan have the number 1 and 2 pass defenses in college football.
Ohio State rushes for 145.5 yards per game while allowing 108 compared to Michigan’s 171 yards per game and allowing 90.7. McCarthy has been struggling the last couple of weeks and Ohio State is very tough to run on. Ohio State has a much better passing game and I see them taking advantage in the air with Marvin Harrison Jr. Ohio State’s defense is better than it has been in the last two years. I am looking for a close game that could come down to the final possession. Take the 3.5 points with the Buckeyes.

Play on Ohio State. This is a 3% play.
