#9 Ohio State (8-1, 10-2) at Michigan (5-4, 8-4) Post Game

It's here...

Boys and girls the biggest game for either team is upon them. OSU has already punched their ticket to Indy, and TTUN gets to play the role of spoiler.

Gut feeling; I'm thinking Hair-ball gets his marquee win they have been looking for.

Sandbagger!   :)



Is there any particular significance to leaving out the vowels, or is it just that you don't want to spell out the word?  Just curious.



I think the game will be pretty tight for the first half, but believe tOSU will pull away a little bit late.  Not a blowout or anything, but enough that Michigan won't be able to mount a threat in the 4th quarter.  Should be fun to watch, though.  This is always one of my favorites every season aside from my own team's games.   Rivalry week is here!

Same here.   Angry team, loaded with talent, nothing to lose, home crowd.  Has all the earmarks of a typical OSU v UM game that goes to the alleged underdog.
If I were a gambler, I would stick about $5000 on UM getting 13.

Michigan is not winning this game.

Sorry sandbaggers.

The Wisconsin Effect will be in force once again.

Only Maryland (beat Indiana at home) and Indiana (beat Illinois away) have wins the week after they played Wisconsin.

I'm hoping Michigan can soften your boys up a little bit this coming weekend. But they ain't gonna win.

If we lose to okorn heaven help me. I'll wear an upside down W to Indianapolis.

I am interested to see how the OSU Rush game fairs against the team up north, if they have success it gives me hope for the following week. UM did a really nice job slowing down the Badgers.

UM is too 1 dimensional on offense to score enough. Unless okorn turns into Kyle Stanley hard to see UM getting much more than 20 points. 

JT can throw 4 picks and still score 24, so I'm gonna take the Bucks 35-13. But, it's a 7 point game at half.

182 yards rushing ain't slowing down anyone.

A well placed pick six, a punt return or punt block...a couple of offensive TDs.  Michigan can EASILY score more than 20.   
Plus, you may recall last year OSU had a hell of a time moving the ball on them.
I expect Michigan to run right at OSU and throw the kitchen sink in there. Screens, reverses, misdirection.
Ohio State better bring there "A" game on defense, and their mistake free offense.  
Don't fall into the trap of one team looking better on paper.   Not in this series.

all depends on if Peters is cleared from concussion protocol and plays. Michigan has no shot with O'Korn. Nobody on that team believes in O'Korn even a fraction of a percent. O'Korn sucks. A lot. I think deep down they all know he's a bum. You saw the defense fall apart after Peters got carted off. Got the life sucked out of them. They were a completely different team after he left the ball game. Michigan was pretty much controlling that game and once he got knocked out they just collapsed.

Michigan will have a shot against Ohio State if Peters is starting. If O'Korn gets the start because Peters can't go- Ohio State by 13 isn't enough. If O'Korn gets named the starter I am betting big on Ohio State. They'll win by at least 21 with O'Korn starting.

84 on 2 carries, one of which was from a WR. 8 tackles for loss and 3 sacks.

I'm not saying UW was completely shut down, Wiscy did what they had to do. but for UW to reach it's goals of winning the BIG and winning in the playoffs, they probably need to rush for 250 yards in their next 3-4 games.

anyways, just my opinion, but I thought the UM defense played a pretty good game, they were hitting Taylor a lot in the backfield, he still had a nice game, but the one thing Ohio State has done this year is get TFL, and seeing UM do that in camp randall gave me more hope about Indy.

Oh I agree, I think the UM defense and special teams can make this a game. but I don't see the UM offense with Okorn scoring 20. the defense, kicking game could get one, Ohio State's special teams have been a mess most of the season.

Ohio State's offense has been sporadic as well, so I wouldn't be surprised to see a 17-10 type game going into the 4th quarter. but I think the Ohio State running attack with even a little bit of a passing game will be enough to score at worst 24. I just can't see UM getting there with Okorn. with Peters, sure, but not with Okorn.

believe me, I haven't forgotten the Cooper years.  I know being the favorite doesn't mean a whole lot in this game, especially if UM can grab an early lead it will most likely be a dog fight. but if UM falls behind early, allowing Ohio State to really pound the run game, I think it'll be enough to get the W.
