Michigan vs Ohio State College Football Picks: The Wolverines (3-8) are off another home loss as they lost to Northwestern 21-14 last week. What's REALLY funny is the home field advantage that was the big house will never be again under Rich Rodriguez. Sure he's playing freshmen (even though he doesn't have too) and this was suppose to be a "rebuilding year" but hasn't a rebuilding year always meant eight wins at Michigan? Didn't the defense use to play tough? College football's winningest program had already sealed its first losing season since 1967 and snapped a 33-season bowl streak. The sports odds posted by the oddsmakers at Sportsbook.com currently list Ohio State -21 favorites to Michigan heading into this matchup.

"It was tough to stay," coach Rich Rodriguez said. "It's our job to put a team out there that everybody is proud of." "Everybody's going to judge you on your record, and that's fair," Rodriguez said. "I do think we're making some steps that will eventually show up on game days."

The Buckeyes (9-2) are on a two game winning streak after beating Illinois 30-20 last week. You could see some of the talent that Illinois had, but they just couldn't put together a total team effort. OSU is becoming a very good team, and QB Pryor is fun to watch. Just the opposite with Juice Williams though, as it seems like he never could rally the team. You could see the Buckeyes feed off of Pryor's confidence and you also could see the Illinois offense just seem like something was missing. The online sports betting odds at Sportsbook.com has the OVER/UNDER in this Michigan vs Ohio State game is set at 45 points.

College Football Picks: I still don't get why Rich Rodriguouz is trying to run the spread with the players he currently has when he has his own players that can run the spread, these current players won't be playing so what's the point of making them run the spread?  I like the Wolverines, always have, but I don't think they can get the win in this big rivalry this year. But 20 plus points is a lot of points to be laying in a rivalry like this. There is no reason why they are under 7 or 8 wins this year, that's my personal opinion. RR should have kept the old offense until he had the parts to run his. You don't put a Lamborghini engine in Mustang, it doesn't work. The Buckeyes head into the last game of the regular season against Michigan with a chance for at least a share of the Big Ten title and an outside shot at the Rose Bowl. Over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings. Over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings in Ohio State. Wolverines are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 meetings.
