Ohio State has to play Michigan at the big house in Ann Arbor this year, and without Troy Smith I think this is the year Carr snaps his buckeye jinx.
Michigan will beat ohio state this year and win the big ten championship providing Wisconson doesn't nail the Wolverines first. In any event ohio state loses in Ann Arbor to close out the regular season.

Observers hardily have maligned the Big Ten largely because of early-season woes in Ann Arbor.
The current USA Today poll however includes five conference teams among its Top 25: Ohio State Wisconsin Purdue Michigan State and Penn State though Michigan State for example has racked up a 4-0 record against teams such as Notre Dame that pack about as much muscle as Spongebob Squarepants!
Five time World Champion Handicapper and Professional Handicappers League Commissioner Brian Gabrielle has four Big Ten teams among the leading 25 and drops Penn State all the way down to 41st.
He has Michigan State 25th and Michigan 52nd in contrast Zukiel still regards UM as a Top 5 team.
They still can win the Big 10 championship still smell the roses Zukiel said.
Gabrielle has Ohio State ranked fifth nationally Wisconsin ninth and Purdue 17th.
This The BGS Power Ratings takes everything into account not just the results of one game i.e. Michigan over Penn St but all games against all opponents Gabrielle said.
I know Michigan fans are frustrated and looking for something to grab on to but it doesnt help Michigan that Penn State is not a Top 25 team in The BGS Power Ratings so the win really loses luster.
East Coast PHL handicapper Bill Fishman still gives the Wolverines a shot at a cherished Big Ten championship.
I feel Michigan is still a very talented team and one that should be reckoned with for the Big Ten title Fishman said.
Michigan was my top play this week as a dog win over Penn State.
Im still not a huge fan of the Big Ten but Ohio State is quick and talented on defense.
Boyd believes uncertainty surrounding the Midwest loop traditionally among the countrys strongest could actually prove to be a boon as each game takes on added significance.
Theres no doubt the Big Ten is down. he said.
Michigan did what it needed to do to stay in the hunt by taking care of business at home against the Lions.
That win gets them believing again without a doubt.
Wisconsin or Ohio State appears to have the inside track.
Right now it looks like its going to be a sloppy ride.
I dont see anyone running the table and home field advantage in big matchups will be crucial.

Ohio State would not survive against either LSU or USC. I think you are dreaming there, or just wishful thinking. Remember don't get too hyped up over a team that got spanked by a team that should have been beaten handedly if you go by popular opinion.
As far as Michigan goes, Ohio State wins that one. Michigan has had one big win this year, and their delusional fans are already calling for the Big Ten title. LOL. The day that a team, who lost to a 1AA school, wins the Big Ten it'll become a joke. Michigan may have beaten Penn St, but don't go reserving tickets to the Rose Bowl just yet. Losses to the Buckeyes and Badgers have them playing in a pre-New Year bowl game. Mark it on your calenders.
Bottom line... OSU over UM

I'll be realistic here just once and say I don't think the Bucks will make it to the championship again this year. However they will win the big 10. There are four games that scare me: @ Purdue (smells like an upset.) @ Penn State. Wisconsin. That team up north. Anyone of those teams can beat the buckeyes. I personally want us to win the big 10 and play in the rose bowl and beat USC.

You're evidently an Ohio man, pushing the Buckeyes and the Bengals. But I have to agree with you. Ohio State will defeat Michigan. From a Cowboy's fan. And an Alabama Crimson Tide SEC fan.

I agree with OSU beating Michigan, and possibly USC, but LSU is where I have to disagree. This comes from an Alabama fan.

Ohio State.

OSU will win.
The worst thing that could happen for the Big Ten this year is if Michigan manages to win the conference title, as that will be the ultimate evidence of how bad the Big Ten sucks, since they got absolutely demolished at home by a team that will be lucky to finish third in the Pac Ten.

I thought that this would be the year that Michigan finally won, but after watching UM lose to App. State and get killed by Oregon, along with OSU playing really well, I think OSU wins again.

i bleed scarlet and grey...
we only have ONE senior starter on offense, and only ONE senior starter on defense...
Boeckman still has to show that he is capable of NOT making stupid decisions as to passing the ball... if Todd would simply play smart at the qb position (like Krenzel did) then the offense would be able to control the game, and therefore tire out the opposing defenses quicker.
The Buckeyes running game still has much room for improvement, and until they can run a smash mouth rushing game to supplement their passing game, my Buckeyes will struggle against better defenses.
on defense, we still have ALOT of room for improvement in the secondary. i am wondering why the coaches don't consider having Maurice Wells try out as a cornerback or safety. It just seems like he does not have the knack for runningback... with his tremendous speed, he may be able to be a more effective playmaker as a wide receiver or, since the secondary struggles from time to time, as a cb or s...
