3. TreVeyon Henderson will run for 120+ yards against Michigan

TreVeyon Henderson has been one of the senior leaders on this Ohio State football team all year. He's done a really good job of being someone that the team can lean on. He hasn't fumbled all year long and has been the better running back recently, including against Indiana.

While Quinshon Judkins has been excellent all year, this game was built for Henderson to break out. Henderson has been the guy who has been through the losses against Michigan. Ryan Day is going to want him to get a lot of carries and be a big impact player.

Henderson is going to have at least 120 rushing yards in this game. I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up breaking off a couple of big runs. The offensive line, while reshuffled, played well against the Hoosiers. I expect them to maintain that level of play in this game as well.

Ohio State wants to win this game for Henderson so badly. He isn't the only senior who hasn't gotten a pair of gold pants yet. Jack Sawyer, J.T. Tuimoloau, Emeka Egbuka, and Denzel Burke are just some of the other guys who came back in order to win this game.

Henderson should be a big part of winning this game. If all of these bold predictions happen, those guys will be getting their first pair of gold pants.
