Here's a trend- Ohio State 24-1 last 25 on the moneyline- 96%. They seem to have done pretty well in close games as well.

The luck runs out.As the line drops make sure you increase your wager.When Michigan is up 10-0, you can ask yourself, how is OSU gonna come back with a Arizona Cardinal type of offense?It is not gonna happen.

Get me LSU vs. Oaklahoma for the championship--please.I would love to see this matchup of 2 great coaches and the 2 best teams.Pac 10 schools suck in bowls and have terrible running games for years.

Just a thought. No one and I mean no one hates OSU more than I do, BUT +7 DOES seem to be an overlay. I`m just going to watch this one and hope all Big Blue backers take down the $$!

SCOUTING THE OFFENSE: The Wolverines have been dynamic most of the season, but Ohio State can match Michigan's firepower with their own defensive strength. Execution and game planning will determine which side is successful. After losing two previous games to Ohio State, QB John Navarre has a lot to prove and a ton of pressure on his shoulders. If he plays tight, the Wolverines could be in trouble.
SCOUTING THE DEFENSE
This appears to be a major advantage for Michigan since the Ohio State offense has been largely disappointing this season. Ohio State has gotten to 10-1 at this point of the season with Maurice Clarett, but he was a difference-maker last season in games like this, and the Buckeyes aren't anywhere near as effective this year without him. Michigan should be able to stuff the OSU running game, which would go a long way toward determining the winner of the game.

QUOTE TO NOTE
"By far Michigan. They are a great team. Offensively they are balanced and have so many weapons. Defensively they fly around. By far Michigan. Head and shoulders." -- Northwestern LB Pat Durr, evaluating whether Michigan or Ohio State is better. The Wildcats lost to both teams this season.

As has happened so many times, the Big Ten championship comes down to Ohio State-Michigan,

At worst, the winner would be the first Big Ten team to go to the Rose Bowl since Purdue represented the Big Ten following the 2000 regular season.

Michigan is peaking as it comes into this matchup. The offense is cooking with Chris Perry running the ball, John Navarre throwing it and Braylon Edwards and Jason Avant making spectacular catch after spectacular catch.

Steve Breaston has been a huge threat on special teams all season.

But perhaps most importantly, the defense has been playing its best football of the year. The Wolverines held Purdue to three points on Oct. 25 and has not been threatened since. Head coach Lloyd Carr is counting on a continued sensational effort from that unit.

If he gets it, the Wolverines should have a good chance at stopping Ohio State's two-game winning streak in the series. Michigan has the advantage of playing at home and the Buckeyes simply can't match Michigan's offensive firepower.

While it's true Ohio States offense leaves a lot to be desired, what would happen if Tressel threw in a few razzle dazzle plays do you think Michigan might be caught off guard? What if a couple those two plays yielded 14 points. Then lets speculate that vanilla offense scores a mere 10 points, well we are looking at 24 points. Give me the Buckeyes defense and 30 or 31 points any day.

Nice write ups, i really do think that sp teams will be a HUGE factor in this one. I can see Breaston returning one maybe two to the HOUSE.

LETS START THE PARTY EALRY BUDDY!!!

This is my biggest play of the season. I laid 6 with Michigan and if Kris Kringle and that Punch and Judy offense beat me, then I might as well start handicapping rugby. Michigan is clearly a better team and even if Ohio St brings the Fiesta Bowl officials with them it will take a lot more than a bulls**t pass interference call thirty seconds after a play is over by a zebra fifty yards away from the play to even remotely keep them in this game. Michigan will jump on this team early and often and won't let up.

Columbus Dispatch Report: Football practice in Columbus was delayed on
Monday for nearly two hours. One of the offensive players, while on his way to the
locker room, happened to look down and notice a suspicious looking, unknown, white
powdery substance on the practice field.
The head coach, Jim Tressel immediately suspended practice while the FBI was called
in to investigate. After a complete field analysis, the FBI determined that the white
substance unknown to the players was the goal line. Practice was resumed when the
FBI decided that the team would not be likely to encounter the substance again.

WRs= Michigan not an argument
RBs= Michigan not an argument
QB= Ohio St. Krenzel is smarter and wont make mistakes. Can you say that about Navarre?
Kicker= Ohio St by far
Special teams= Ohio St by far
Defense= toss up.
Coach= Ohio St. you don't think Tressle has something up his sleeve for Michigans stunting and slanting defense??

Ohio State has won 3 games this year without scoring an offensive TD. Their Defense scores TDs and so does Special teams..

This game is going to be a FG battle.

What kicker would you rather have? and you want to lay 2+ FG's ?

Good Luck
