  • "The Biggest Game "

    OSU vs Michigan!
    Finally “The Game” is here and this one’s for
    all the marbles! The 11-0 Buckeyes vs that 11-0
    School Up North! It’s the world’s greatest sports rivalry
    and they’ve been playing it since 1897! Kickoff is at High Noon
    in Ann Arbor and the weather forecast is cloudy with a high of 44.

    This will be the 119th time the Buckeyes and Wolverines have
    played each other and Michigan leads the series 60-51-6. Here
    are the scores of the last four games - which were all coached by
    Jim Harbaugh and Ryan Day.

    2019: OSU won 56-27
    2020: Game Cancelled - Covid
    2021: OSU lost 42-27*
    2022: OSU lost 45-23

    *Note: When Michigan beat Ohio State in 2021, Harbaugh
    broke his eight game losing streak against the Buckeyes.

    Both coaches are under a lot of pressure this year. Jim Harbaugh
    from his “Sign Stealing” suspension and Ryan Day because he has
    lost to Michigan the last two times they’ve played.

    This is one of college football’s biggest games, millions of fans
    will be watching, the winner goes on to play for the Big Ten
    Championship and a shot at the National Title.

    The current Vegas Line favors Michigan by 2.5 points but we all know
    Betting Lines don’t count for much in “TheGame”! This one is
    all about pride, competitive stamina and the
    sheer will to win!

    All that said, I predict the Buckeyes win 38-24. And you say?

    🏈😊

    Go Bucks!

    Depends how the refs wanna do it.

    That's why I think they get the upset but the refs will need a police escort to make it out of Michigan alive.

    If Mia is still reading these, I would be suggesting that he mortgage all of his rental properties, because I don't see Ohio State losing, much less not covering, this one.

    So, of course, this means Michigan is a lock...

    So you think, as I do, the Last Resort will be invoked and the referees will take care of it for the conference?

    The Wolverines will win this one outright, no ref assist needed.

    I disagree but what is your prediction for the final score?
