The prediction
Ohio State has everything to play for when it takes the field on Saturday against its arch-rival. However, don’t underestimate a Michigan team on the ropes when all they have to play for is to ruin the Buckeye’s season.
Ah… who am I kidding? I don’t think Michigan has a chance in this one. Ohio State is focused and they know what they need to do. They may just hang a hundred on the Wolverines just to prove a point.
At the end of the day, Michigan doesn’t show much fight, Jim Harbaugh moves to 0-6 against his hated rival, and the Buckeyes earn another pair of gold pants.
Final Score
Ohio State 63, Michigan 17
