Michigan at Ohio State: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Ohio State 76, Michigan 70
Money line (ML)
OHIO STATE (+100) is the STRONGEST PLAY – 1½ times your usual wager. If the line moves above -110, change the focus to the spread and lay the points, no matter how many.
The Buckeyes are the better team. They’re 10-1 straight-up and 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games. Plus, they’re at home.
They’re also more battle-tested, notching wins against the Big Ten’s other top two teams in Illinois and Iowa. Michigan hasn’t played either yet and only has two wins over No. 21 Wisconsin to really brag about.

Against the spread (ATS)
PASS unless Ohio State’s ML moves above -110 as mentioned above.
ATS: Michigan 12-4 Ohio State 14-7-1
Over/Under (O/U)
PASS. My projected score is too close to the O/U line 145.5 (-110) to make a play. However, if you must, the lean is to the OVER.
O/U records: Michigan 7-9 Ohio State 13-8-1

© Provided by The Spun Ohio State and Michigan players during The Game on Saturday.The 2020 college football season has brought a plethora of changes to the schedule, in an effort to safely compete on the field. Thankfully, for fans around the country, one of the honored traditions of the sport will be upheld in just eight days: the annual Ohio State-Michigan game.
Known as “The Game”, the rivalry contest between the Buckeyes and the Wolverines always draws national attention. The two Big Ten East foes often find themselves competing for supremacy in the conference as the regular season wanes. Michigan leads the overall series 58-51-6, but Ohio State has dominated the last two decades.
However, like most events in 2020, this year’s match-up will look a little bit different.
Based on the performance of the two programs this season, Ohio State will enter as gigantic favorites when “The Game” takes place on Dec. 12. Ryan Day’s team is 4-0 and among the nation’s best thanks to Justin Fields and the offense. Meanwhile, Jim Harbaugh’s squad finds themselves among the bottom-feeders of the conference, struggling to stay afloat.
According to Allan Bell of 247Sports, the Buckeyes opened as 27.5 point favorites over the Wolverines at FanDuel Sportsbook.

Yikes.
Unfortunately for Michigan fans, it’s hard to disagree. Harbaugh could very well be on his way out of Ann Arbor as the Wolverines have struggled on both sides of the ball, despite multiple years of strong recruiting classes. Presumptive starting quarterback Joe Milton lost the job a few weeks ago as sophomore gunslinger Cade McNamara took over. Still, the team lacks consistency.
For Day and the Buckeyes on the field, the season has gone according to plan. Fields and a talented wide receiver room look to be one of the most fearsome in the country as the team clawed their way to a Top-4 spot in the College Football Playoff rankings. However, as the Big Ten navigates the worldwide pandemic, Ohio State’s season has been sidelined multiple times.
It will be important for fans to keep an eye on COVID-19’s effect on both programs. The Buckeyes dealt with a fairly severe outbreak this past week that saw a cancellation of their game with Illinois. Michigan recently called off this week’s contest against Maryland due to the spread of the virus within their own locker room.
Hopefully, Ohio State-Michigan will be able to take place on Dec. 12.
