Ohio State vs. Michigan Pick
This is going to be one of the best games that we have seen this year, between two teams that can win a national championship.
These defenses are equal in my eyes, as they have similar numbers and possess some outstanding athletes.
The X factor in this game is going to be the quarterback play, and McCarthy is much more reliable than McCord.
Lastly, playing at home in this game is a big advantage, and the Big House will be rocking all game long.
