The Buckeyes enter with the #1 pass-efficiency defense in the nation, allowing 16 points or fewer in every game but one, and Miami doesn’t possess the explosive passing attack needed to break that trend. The Hurricanes rely on a physical run game to set the table, but Ohio State is #5 nationally vs the run and has held nine opponents under 100 yards. If Miami can’t stay ahead of the chains, this becomes a long night for Carson Beck against a defense allowing just 5.3 YPA.
On the other side, OSU’s balanced offense, 78% completion QB Julian Sayin, the best WR duo in America, and a quietly emerging RB1 should be able to move the ball enough even against a top-tier defensive line. Miami’s pass rush may keep things competitive early, but Ohio State’s protection (11 sacks allowed all season) eventually takes control. Projecting methodical separation.
OSU can cover without needing a shootout and if Miami struggles to score, Ohio State cashes in almost every realistic script.
