Here we are yet again .....The Game.

Two storied football programs and one storied academic institution. 75,000 truck drivers and a bandwagon of fans that span Ohio and includes every school in the state not prefacing their Alma Mater with a superfluous THEEEEEEE along with most every Browns and Bengals (lol) fan.

Re-singing our Fight Song - the best in the land - with sophomoric vulgarity and childishness ....won?t buy gas across State lines and act as if Ohio as a state can hold a candle to MICHIGAN. I couldn?t tell you one lyric of their fight song and couldn?t care less.

Controversy and cheating, middle fingers and tattoos, this ?academic institution? seems focused on one and only one thing ...us. And it?s been effective for football ...bomb-sniffing dogs, home bought refs and false 1st Downs, broken feet and going for 2.

There is absolutely no reason the arguably best team in the country wouldn?t be expected to win in Ann Arbor because, fuck Vegas. But Vegas wasn?t built on picking losers, so what the fuck ....playing with House Money!

Best team in the B10 visits the hottest team in the B10, if not the country...

So post your score predictions with analysis if you wish and ...woof and bark as you see fit.

After all, this is The Game and the only bucknut around here is pre-occupied.

Hopefully Michigan can “right the ship” as the best president in fifty years has been doing. Trump with a historical record landslide in 2020. Go Blue!
 
Since there seems to be an exemption on the one post per customer and no wolfing and barking, I have found this.

Don?t know this site but it?s claiming the buckeyes open as an 11 point favorites, which sounds about reasonable.

This is a tough one. Not just because of my love of Michigan and my visceral desire for this win, but also because of my visceral hatered of OSU. If OSU wins the toss they will choose to put Michigan on offense first and force a 3 and out to try to demoralize the team. Michigan has to come out and score early and grab the momentum from the start. Keys will be keeping Young off of Shea to allow him time to pass the ball and containing Fields and Dobbins. Both are big tasks! Getting the running game going is also going to be important. I don't think Michigan can win with just their running game but the running game will be an important part of winning this game. Michigan will also need to take advantage of OSU's mistakes. If they can do all these things then

Michigan 42 OSU 21
GO BLUE! GET IT DONE!
 
OSU just hasn't looked vulnerable at all. I know we're playing very well and all, but this will still be a very tall order.

OSU 38
Michigan 27
 
I watched the entire OSU / PSU game and it was the ugliest 11 point win I think I have seen. If OSU plays like they did on Saturday UM will win easily. I think the weather had something to do with it. The forecast in AA calls for a 50% chance for rain & snow.

UM is due.

Rain? Snow? Woohoo! I'm hoping so! Michigan has shown it can play well in that kind of weather!

1. It's impossible to think Harbaugh won't start winning his share of these games.

2. The 2019 Game is UM's "Super Bowl." Wolverines will be loaded for bear to ruin OSU's season, as it did fifty years ago.

3. OSU has plenty of offensive weapons but it doesn't have the speed that killed Brown's defense last year. Missing are guys like Parris Campbell, Terry McLaurin and Johnnie Dixon. UM will be better prepared and more able to handle this year's set of weapons.

Honestly shocked to see you post this. I don't think I have attempted to pick a score all season and I won't this game either. But if I was a betting man Id take the Over and OSU giving up 9.5. I guess call me a doubting Tom
 
Dadblammit, M-Tinsel town stole my score. So there will be a tie, or award it to him since be beat me to it.

M 24, OSU 12.
 
I refuse to get my hopes up. We are playing much better right now, which means it is the perfect time for the annual dick punch against OSU. Really want to see a win, but the past two decades will not allow me to think that's going to happen.

Michigan - 24
OSU - 38

I would be very happy to split.

Everyone our age should pick that score.

I would be happy to split it with anyone and everyone who picks it.
 
Vegas was built on slots and table games, sports gambling has the lowest revenue per square foot and is basically offered as a courtesy to get people in the casino.

this one will be closer than I thought it would be 2 weeks ago. it wasnt so long ago that a top 3 OSU team came out flat in bad weather and coughed up a home game they probably shouldn't have but it wasnt against uofm. I doubt they'll be taking you guys lightly and in the end i think they are too much for uofm, even on the road.
