Michigan winning at the horseshoe last year is proof that this is one of those games where you can throw logic out the window. They had a walk on QB and the worst passing offense among major teams in the nation, yet they went in there and beat the top team in the country. The talent gap is not nearly as wide this year as it was last year, and the underdog is now at home. 9.5 is not a number I’d be willing to lay, personally.

Agreed. Ohio state was a 20 point favorite last year at home against Michigan in that game. Let's not forget they had both Judkins (Browns), and Henderson (Patriots) in the backfield. Not to mention Jermiah Smith, and Carnell Tate both played last year ALONG with Egbuka. Come on OP, the Buckeyes were loaded last year. Without using ChapGPT you cant even name Michigan's starting QB last year. On paper that game was an utter mismatch, and Ohio State managed to score 10 points at home.
If you like OSU that's fine but some of these points are ridiculous.
