\"The<\/a>
The Michigan Wolverines have lost three of their last four games<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Ohio State is 11-0 overall and 7-0 in the Big Ten Conference, which has led directly to its No. 3 ranking in the current BCS standings.\u00a0 The Buckeyes are averaging 48.7 points and 530.9 yards per game\u2014something to consider when looking over the college football betting lines in Week 14.\u00a0 Senior running back Carlos Hyde is the first player to rush for 1,000 yards in a season under head coach Urban Meyer, while quarterback Braxton Miller paces the conference with a passer efficiency rating of 165.8.\u00a0 Ohio State is 6-1 SU and 4-3 ATS as road favorites the last two-plus seasons, with the OVER going 6-1 in that situation.<\/p>\n

The Buckeyes will likely prove victorious in this heated rivalry, as Meyer has compiled a dominating 33-3 SU record in November over the course of his career.\u00a0 Ohio State is in the midst of a school-record 23-game winning streak, but its important to point out that Michigan has interrupted undefeated seasons for the program on five occasions.\u00a0 On the defensive side of the football, Ryan Shazier is the player to watch, as he has tallied a Big Ten-leading 19.5 tackles-for-loss.<\/p>\n

Michigan has dropped three of its last four games, as it prepares to honor 17 senior football players that will play their final game at Michigan Stadium, which can\u2019t be ignored when making your college football predictions.\u00a0 The Wolverines own a 58-45-6 advantage in the all-time series, but have lost eight of the last 10 meetings, including a 26-21 setback as four-point road underdogs last year.\u00a0 Michigan is 1-4 SUATS in its last five opportunities as an underdog of 10.5 to 21 points, with the UNDER going 3-2 in that situation.<\/p>\n

The Wolverines are going to need a big game from quarterback Devin Gardner to pull off an upset in this spot, as he\u2019s accounted for at least two touchdowns in 13 of his last 16 games.\u00a0 His main target will be wide receiver Jeremy Gallon, who is the 10th Michigan player to surpass 1,000 receiving yards in a single season.<\/p>\n

Sports bettors will likely back the Wolverines due to their 5-1 ATS mark following a SU loss.<\/p>\n
