Ohio State at Michigan Preview & Picks

Ohio State are backed to win as underdogs at Michigan.

This is likely to be a low-scoring clash dominated by two good defenses, so adjustments will be key.

And in that situation, we have to go with the team who will have their head coach on the sideline.

  • Ohio State are 7-2-0 ATS in their last 9 games
  • Ohio State are 3-0-0 ATS in their last 3 games as a road betting underdog
  • The Under has cashed in 9 of Ohio State’s 11 games so far
  • The Under has hit in 5 of Michigan’s 6 home games

Head To Head

  • Ohio State lead the all-time series 52-49-4
  • Michigan won 45-23 when the two teams last met in November 2022

Ohio State Form

Ohio State go into this rivalry game boasting a perfect record, having won all 11 of their games so far.

That nearly wasn’t the case though, as they Buckeyes trailed #9 Notre Dame on the road in late September.

It took a touchdown with just one second remaining to snatch a 17-14 victory over the Fighting Irish in South Bend.

Ohio State have not looked back since though, reeling off a string of wins including a 20-12 victory over #7 Penn State.

And over the last couple of weeks the defense has allowed just two field goals as the Buckeyes beat Michigan State 38-3 and Minnesota 37-3.

Michigan Form

Michigan continue to boast a flawless record despite the suspension of head coach Jim Harbaugh.

The Wolverines have been on a roll all season long, stacking up commanding wins while performing well on both sides of the football.

Their first real challenge came on November 9 when they visited #9 Penn State, and that task was made harder 24 hours before kick-off when it was announced that Harbaugh was suspended.

Michigan rose to the occasion though, as they were able to beat the Nittany Lions 24-15 on the road.

The Wolverines then backed that up last weekend, improving to 11-0 with a 31-24 victory in Maryland.

Verdict

Michigan have survived without Jim Harbaugh so far, but this may be the game where his absence is finally felt.

Points are likely to be at a premium, and the Buckeyes are expected to make the better adjustments given that their head coach is not watching on TV.
