Does anybody have an early line or the preseason game of the year line on OSU/Michigan?This one will be fascinating...the entire world has to be lining up to bet on UM...Side note, congrats to Northwestern. Gutty showing and well done.
I was betting Game of the Year Lines at South Point in June. I saved the sheet, but there is no date on it. The lookahead line for Wolverines / Buckeyes was Buckeyes -9.0

Guys be very careful on this one, if Urban Meyer tells his team either on Friday or Saturday before the game he's done at the end of the year due to health reasons, NO WAY IN HELL WILL HE LEAEV OHIO STATE LOSING TO MICHIGAN IN HIS LAST HOME GAME. Be careful

Everything and Everybody seems to point Michigan...I lean that way too...BUT, 4 points at Home for Ohio St. Holy crap. I think I'll be taking that for 1/2 unit just for kicks. Again I just can't get over Ohio St a home dog. Heck close game and Michigan wins by 3, is still a cover. OhSt will score on Michigan, will it be enough? as they can't stop anybody.

Michigan isn’t rated highly for explosive plays, OSU’s biggest weakness (see the Purdue game). OSU will keep it close and can definitely win at home. I would lay off this one.
scal your better than this statement. Michigan isnt rated for explosive plays? Well DA!!!
Michigan is balanced and have plenty of explosion if they need ti!!!
You all wanna look way to into the OSU crap. OSU has a culture of winning and that culture of winning died last week!! They got lucky and Michigan will expose them as a team that is deep and trying to develop its own culture of winning under Harbaugh.
For that bozo that thinks Urban retiring has anything to do with OSU winning saturday is just as dumb as half the comment sI have made on this board over the years being a huge HOMER. Which i am!!!
Michigan defense is superior on all levels. and michigan slow methodical offense will convert tuddies.
This is an easy bet and yes I said easy! who cares who else is on michigan or OSU. Vegas put spread at -4 for a reason!!
Its Michigan or no bet!!!

I'm just not sure there is any reason to overthink things...
1) Total D: Michigan #1, OSU #69
2) Rush D: Michigan #14, 3.28ypc OSU#63 4.55ypc
3) Pass Efficiency D: Michigan#1 OSU#46
4)Red Zone D: Michigan#127 OSU#95
The red zone numbers are as misleading as it gets. OSU allowed 20/31 trips TDs, UM gave up 14/19 TDS. Only 9 rushing TDs all year..considering the amount of garbage time, pretty impressive.
So, how does OSU score 17+ being one dimensional?
This has 31-14 UM written all over it.

One other quick note, and I am not calling out OSU fans whatsoever. The Bucks and Meyer have treated me well over the years, but where is the pride in the trenches? On both sides of the ball?
Also, the fanbase looks frustrated, lots of head shaking going on every single week. If Michigan gets out early, I don't rule out the Bucks packing it in and getting whipped.

Martell is the X-factor...I don't put it past Meyer to play this guy extensively in the wildcat trying to burn clock with a lead. And, unless this guy is a Cam Newton/Vince Young, this will lead to turnovers.
Just not seeing much of a shot for the Bucks...maybe a +3 turnover game wins it.

Means very little in a rivalry game. You’ll be sweating 4 if you lay it. Hats why all Michigan backers only want the ML.

After making the bet, I don't sweat. The sweat is for making the decision, not regretting it.
As for finding value in numbers in a game like this, it is of limited use. Sort of like line shopping during the Superbowl --good luck.
The stats and eye test point to OSU being soft. Physically and mentally. If things don't go their way early, they will likely be exposed in a big way.
Going to be tough to rally against that D, an uneasy stadium, and power running game. It's doable against Nebraska and Maryland--not vs the #1 total defense in the game.

This year, on paper and watching both teams, everything says Michigan. Michigan has the #1 defense and OSU defense is the worst I’ve seen in a long time. Michigan is also a very well rounded team. We all know this.
Unfortunately looking at past history I wouldn’t touch this game. Best of luck if you do...
Since 2000, Michigan has only won 3 times though, and are 1-9 the last 10 times in the Shoe. This might be the first year Harbaugh gets a W. I’m not touching this game though!
Play the game. Don’t let the game play you.

They’ve already been exposed... by Purdue. (And by Maryland in a win)
Been there, done that. If anything this is a game of redemption...(at least ATS), despite it only being a 1 loss season thus far.

Yeah, Purdue took it to them...in a conference road game. This is the game of the year, at home. Losing by 2 scores against UM will lead to Schiano hitting the road. Added pressure on a mediocre D.
To be honest, I can't find a quality win on OSU's schedule...they all have fleas. The only reason OSU isn't +7.5 is the home field and reputation.
By every metric I see, UM has a great shot to win and cover the 4. Like I said...no reason to overthink this one and call for the old "Vegas Trap."
