Interesting everyone assumes Michigan will win in Columbus


Nov 12, 2018, 9:27 AM

Michigan could beat them by 40, but....They haven't won in Columbus since 2000. And Michigan has played some terribly inept offenses- but that won't be the case against Ohio State. Say what you want about the Buckeyes (i HATE THEM), but they have more talent at every offensive position than Michigan has faced at every position all year (with maybe the exception of Wisconsin's RBs).

And the X-factor here is pressure. We know its hard to play in Rivalry games when you want to beat your rival THIS bad. This will define Michigan's program. If Michigan loses to Ohio State, the "revenge tour" narrative will be "well you beat 4 loss WISC, beat 4 loss Michigan State, and lost to the only decent team in Ohio State.

Ohio State might win that game.

Michigan has not performed at a high level against a great team yet this year (not sure that anybody in the top 10 has).

On the other hand, Ohio St is not a great team and I have seen nothing from them since early in the season to show they have a pulse. They have looked absolutely terrible since the Purdue game. Don't let the score from their game against Mich St fool you. I watched much of the game and Ohio St was terrible until Mich St literally decided to give them 2 points on an intentional safety.

Beating Ohio St would prove nothing at this point about how good Michigan is. I actually think that if the game is even close in a Michigan win it could mean Michigan is pretty weak compared to what they may want to believe.

Ohio St. has talent and depth, haven't played their best lately, if the Urban "headache" problems goes away, Michigan might be in for a long day.
