Final Score: Ohio State football team 34, Michigan 23

This is going to be a tight game for most of the contest. I’m expecting Michigan’s running backs to be available but probably not at full strength. Given the fact that this is most certainly the best offensive line that the Buckeyes have seen all season, the Wolverines will still be able to rush the ball a bit and put together a few drives.

But Jim Knowles and this Buckeye defense will be ready for Michigan’s passing game. Disguising coverages and forcing McCarthy into some bad throws, I believe the Silver Bullets will hold Michigan to under 24 points in this game and that should be plenty for Ryan Day, C.J. Stroud, and Marvin Harrison Jr. to handle.

Dallan Hayden will help Ohio State control the clock for most of the game and when the rubber meets the road, C.J. Stroud will be able to make enough big plays for the Buckeyes to keep its perfect record intact and guarantee a trip to Indianapolis for next week’s Big Ten Championship.

Buckeyes 34, Michigan 23.
