Buckeyes vs. Wolverines Betting Odds and Preview

Michigan (9-2) is fired up and ready for what it can be considered their biggest game of the current season: a visit from the Buckeyes (11-0) on Saturday afternoon. Ohio State is undefeated, and so they are considered road favorites for this particular match. The Buckeyes are 6-0 SU, but only 2-4 ATS in those games.

This team defeated Penn State 28-17, and that result allowed the Buckeyes to remain in the hunt for the first seed in the NCAA football playoffs.

 

But they failed to cover the spread, and a second non-cover might prevent voters from positioning Ohio State above LSU, a team that was also able to remain unbeaten in what ended up being a 56-20 home win over Arkansas.

 

Yes, indeed, the Buckeyes haven’t been defeated yet, but their only real test so far was that game versus the Nittany Lions. Thus, their real challenge of the season is likely the Wolverines and their well-oiled machinery, who have everything it takes to handle their storied foes a significant loss.

After suffering a narrow loss to the Nittany Lions, Michigan has turned into one of the best college teams in the country, obtaining four straight wins, and covering the spread in each of those by an average of 18 points. 

 

If they manage to defeat the Buckeyes, one of their longtime rivals, the Wolverines will be locked in for a premier bowl game, although that result might not be enough for a CFP berth.

 

What’s excellent for Michigan is that they have momentum, they believe in themselves, and they want payback against the Buckeyes, so everything’s set for a big performance from the Wolverines.

 

 

 

 

The Wolverines fell 62-39 last season to the Buckeyes at Ohio Stadium, and as Shea Patterson was leaving the field, he received all kinds of insults from OSU fans.

 

But the starting quarterback for Michigan remained resilient and shouted, “We’ve got you next year at our place,” back at the roaring rival crowd.

 

This meant the fourth straight defeat for the Wolverines to Michigan State. And so this Saturday match is the real chance for Patterson to prove his worthiness and his NFL-caliber quarterbacking skills.

 

Patterson is in his second year with the Wolverines after getting transferred from Ole Miss. He spent his childhood as a Wolverines fan, and so this adds to the importance and overall significance of this match for him.

 

But, to get this victory, he’ll need to overplay another start quarterback in Justin Fields, who’s been a critical piece of the Ohio State undefeated puzzle. Both of these quarterbacks are playing at an elite level; the result of this game can go either way.
