When: Noon today
TV: ABC
Records: No. 9 Ohio State 9-2, 6-1 Big Ten; Michigan 5-6, 1-6
Line: Ohio State by 12
Series: Michigan leads 57-42-6
Ohio State has already accepted a Rose Bowl bid and earned at least a share of a fifth straight Big Ten title. It can win an outright championship with a sixth straight win over rival Michigan. The Wolverines need a victory to become bowl eligible, take some heat off coach Rich Rodriguez and avoid consecutive losing years for the first time since 1962-63.
Ohio State QB Terrelle Pryor vs. Michigan DE Brandon Graham. Pryor, who considered attending Michigan after it hired Rodriguez, has thrown three TDs and run for two scores without throwing an interception in his last three games. Graham, who leads the nation with 21 tackles for losses, is Michigan’s best hope to force Pryor into mistakes.
Ohio State: G Justin Boren will be play in the Big House for the first time since earning Michigan letters in 2006 and ’07. He transferred to Ohio State, parting with a shot that “family values have eroded” in the transition from Lloyd Carr to Rodriguez.
Michigan: WR Roy Roundtree has 21 catches for 274 yards and two TDs in the last three games.
