Saturday Blitz Vegas Big Ten Prediction: Ohio State Wins 38-21
With the fact that this is likely Brady Hoke’s last game and a win could spoil Ohio State’s season and get your team to a bowl game at the same time, the Michigan Wolverines players would appear to have a lot to play for on Saturday.
It won’t matter.
Ohio State and Urban Meyer are going to cruise to an easy, dominating victory over the Wolverines on Saturday as they get set to play in the Big Ten Championship. The Buckeyes will start out strong, looking to make a statement to the College Football Playoff Selection Committee, but the desperation to win style points will cause this team to taper off somewhat as the game goes along.
When it’s all said and done, the Buckeyes will have an easy blowout victory that wasn’t what it could have been. Still, a win is a win, and a blowout is certainly a blowout. This rivalry doesn’t look like it will be much of a game this year compared to last year.
And Ohio State will not slip up in the final regular season game of the year.
