Will BUCKEYES beat MIchigan?

Question

I believe the Bucks will beat Michigan. Heck, Michigan barely
beat Michigan St. today and every team Michigan did beat, Ohio St. beat them by more points. (example: Penn St.)

Answer 1

Wrong!
Michigan
Sat, Sep 15 Notre Dame W 38-0
Sat, Sep 22 (10) Penn State W 14-9
Sat, Sep 29 at Northwestern W 28-16
Sat, Oct 6 Eastern Michigan W 33-22
Sat, Oct 13 Purdue W 48-21
Sat, Oct 20 at Illinois W 27-17
Sat, Oct 27 Minnesota W 34-10
Sat, Nov 3 at Michigan State W 28-24

Ohio State:
Sat, Sep 1 Youngstown State W 38-6
Sat, Sep 8 Akron W 20-2
Sat, Sep 15 at Washington W 33-14
Sat, Sep 22 Northwestern W 58-7
Sat, Sep 29 at Minnesota W 30-7
Sat, Oct 6 at (23) Purdue W 23-7
Sat, Oct 13 Kent State W 48-3
Sat, Oct 20 Michigan State W 24-17
Sat, Oct 27 at (24) Penn State W 37-17
Sat, Nov 3 Wisconsin W 38-17

Look over your data before stating something like that. Sure they beat Penn State by more but Michigan held PSU to only 9 points! Plus that was with freshman Ryan Mallett in at QB! His first game! So imagine if Henne was playing instead.
Now a game where Henne was playing vs. Purdue, Michigan beat them 48 - 21! OSU only won 23 - 7! Michigan won by more than OSU even scored! Also Minnesota! Michigan won 34 - 10 where OSU won 30 - 7! Michigan beat them by more there too! And that was without Henne or Hart!!
I believe that if Michigan has Henne and Hart playing then Michigan has a good chance to win! It'll be a good game either way.
But seriously.. stating that every team Michigan did beat, Ohio St beat them by more points and not even checking that before hand is plain funny.
Plus being that it's going to be in Michigan at the Big House! I have no doubt that Hart and Henne will play. Manningham is also looking to go out huge! OSU better be prepared!

Answer 2

I believe the Bucks CAN win the Michigan game. But first, we need to get by Illinois. A much improved team this year. Any team that plays the Buckeyes always plays their best game. So, one game at a time and focus. The theme this year is "Remember January 8, 2007!!! One game at a time boys and at the end with the focus and determination the Bucks will prevail. I'm a little concerned with the defense. They haven't looked like a #1 defense the last two games. I know they are better than what they have been playing, I just think they need to turn it up a notch or two. On that note...as a BIG Buckeye fan for life....GO BUCKS!!!!!!

Answer 3

If anything can be said for head coach Jim Tressell-he prepares hard for Michigan. Once again, he will out-coach Carr, same old story. I really can't see Michigan's defense holding the Buckeye offense in check. This team is focused, overlooked and has a chip on their shoulder. These guys are riding the longest, and I MEAN LONGEST regular season win streak in the nation. It's going to take alot ot beat them, and the team up north doesn't have the talent the Buckeyes have. OSU 34 Michigan 20.

Answer 4

I would say the answer will wait until the start of the game. If Hart and Henne are both healthy, it will be a close game. I see people on this answer talking about how UM barely beat PSU, Ill, and MSU. In all three games, the wolverines played significant time without their senior qb and senior rb. If Michigan has to play like they did today ( Henne less than 100% and Hart in and out constantly), then I think OSU wins.
I am a lifelong wolverine fan and hope that if OSU wins that the Michigan alumni are ready to ship Carr out of here. Lloyd Carr is a 80's coach in the 2000's.

Answer 5

enable's wish that Ohio State, like Michigan, proves the experts incorrect. After that little ceremony at mid field on the commencing up of the recreation, i replaced into hoping to work out Florida trounced. even with the undeniable fact that, an effortless defeat made me happy. i like between the solutions that stated "Michigan, the style 3 team interior the great Ten, beat Florida, the style 3 team interior the SEC." what's extra telling is that Michigan beat the #9 ranked college team whilst Michigan wasn't even ranked interior the appropriate 25. throughout the standard season, I root for Michigan. while the bowl video games initiate, I root for the great Ten. If Michigan State hadn't been so inept, that they had have beat Boston college. I only wish that Ohio State would not choke yet another bowl visual attraction, something they are particularly proficient at doing. thank you to circulate Blue!!! go Buckeyes, go enormous Ten.

Answer 6

Jim Tressel really has the Buckeyes focused this year and I do not see anyone beating them the next 2 years. Michigan will give them a game the first half and then Beanie Wells and the offensive line will wear them out just like they have done to everyone this year. There is no better team right now.

Answer 7

The Buckeyes have OWNED Michigan ever since Tressel took the helm.
There's no doubt in my mind that they will win on the 17th. The only reason they won today was b/c Michigan State GAVE them the game (with a cherry on top)....they had them on the ropes and U of M just got lucky.

I look forward to yet another year of having the Big Ten title outright.
;-D

Answer 8

Yep. Buckeyes 28-10 over Michigan.

Answer 9

Jim Tressel has a 5-1 record against Michigan.

He knows how to beat them, it is usually the best game of the season, so let's wait and see.

If Todd Boekman continues to play well, and if Benie Wells stays healthy, then they have a very good chance.

It will be a great battle as it is every year, but the best team will win.

Answer 10

HECK YEA!!! If we beat Illinois this weekend the Buckeyes will have one game left (Michigan). They will NOT let Michigan ruin their undefeated season.
Ohio State - 27 - Michigan - 17
