Premium Pick

Ohio State hasn't played since its hard-fought 42-35 win over Indiana due to last week's canceled game against Illinois, and the Buckeyes won't hold anything back this week in their quest for a playoff spot. The Buckeyes are #7 in the country in yards gained (535 per game) and average 45.3 points and they're up against Michigan State, which is #44 in yards allowed while giving up 31.0 points per game. The Spartans did get a win over Northwestern last week to improve to 2-3 on the season, but that followed two blowout losses to Iowa and Indiana. The Spartans' only other victory was against Michigan, which is only 2-4 this year. Michigan State blew a 17-0 lead against the Wildcats, who had three fourth-quarter turnovers. Ohio State is led by Justin Fields, who has thrown for 1,208 yards and 13 touchdown passes with only three interceptions and a 79.6 completion rate. The Buckeyes have covered five of their last seven road games and 11 of their last 16 conference games. Also, OSU is 6-2 ATS the last eight meetings with Michigan State. The Spartans are 6-16 ATS their last 22 games overall. Take Ohio State as a Max Play.
