Once the season progresses to the last regular season game on the road vs Michigan.....If Ohio State is in a must win game at that point to get into the CFP I'd highly recommend a play on them in that game, at the very least.

Home advantage is too important. Odds are Michigan wins. Smart move would be a hedge of some sort. JMO of course. I see nothing so great about Ohio St that makes up for having to win on the road,. Teams are too close in ability

The hedging already occured for me with games played thus far. If the odds are Michigan wins than I'll be more than happy to accept those odds and I'll be on Ohio State again, as I was today.

Not worth it

It’s wide open, I would just roll with Ohio State. It’s likely gonna be them/Michigan or Georgia who wins it all

Ohio State may have the best defense in the country. They have the best WR in the country without question.

Months ago when I made my initial Ohio State futures wager, Georgia was the first team that missed my cutoff point to win it all and it wasn't by much. Michigan too far down the list percentage wise to be even considered.

No offense but when I made my first CFP thread while also commenting on other posts regarding them you were one of the first who didn't disagree but rather stated several reasons they wouldn't be the last team standing.

There's several ways for me to hedge, even if Ohio State gets eliminated, such of course, I don't think we'll happen

Agree. Ohio State isn't beating this Michigan team in Ann Arbor.

Everyone has opinions and i respect that. Ohio State to win the CFP is what I've been focused on, months before the season started. We'll see what happens before that game and then I'll go from there and I'm sure you will also.

Most likely I'll be on Michigan. This is the best Michigan that I can recall in the last 25 years. It's at home and Harbaugh seems to have Day's number. Also, the OSU QB is not impressive. Michigan has a huge advantage at the QB position.

You let me know when they have a win against a top 10 team and then we'll talk about Michigan. Not worried about Michigan at all to be honest fwiw. I'm actually not worried about any team getting in the way. Best of luck to you and I'll be back when this thread is buried on page 11 again in the forum.

There will always be critics. Is what it is. "CFP Champion" is my focus and has been since last summer. I'll see you back here on Jan 8th.

I had reservations about their offensive line and quarterback (still do frankly)

But their defense has outperformed expectations

I am a Buckeye fan so I am very much pulling for you

They may not have to when it comes to winning the CFP. Ohio State may get in even if they lose @ Michigan

Michigan may win, but it's verrrry far from a lock. Ohio State matches up well with them

Big House is a very overrated environment.

It's possible if either OSU or Michigan loses that they could get into the CFP. The SEC will not have two teams in the CFP. I don't have a dog in the fight, but looking at both teams, Michigan is the better team and they're playing at home. As I mentioned previously, I think Harbaugh is in Day's head and he has his number. The QB situation at OSU is going to cost them. He's very average.

The gap isn't as big as you think, and Ohio State has a better defense and better overall skill position talent

Should be a good, tough game. Think you can make good arguments for both sides if it's like a FG line

Day's number, as in it's 2-1? With the covid game getting canceled (which would have made it 2-2, as Ohio State was about a 35-point favorite in that game)

In Michigan world, that's having someone's number I guess. It's been a rough couple of decades in Ann Arbor, so I get it.

Harbaugh is 2-5 against Ohio State. He's finally started to turn a corner, but there is basically no separation between these teams

Ohio State may very well have the best defense in the country, and it is MUCH better than last year. They get after you while still being able to limit the big play. Zero plays given up of 40+ yards this year, a far cry from the past couple years.

McCord isn't exactly Stroud, but he's shown that he's good enough and at least is good at avoiding stupid mistakes.

If Buckeyes have a healthy RB/WR room, McCord manages the game well, and O-Line holds up, they're gonna have a great chance to win

Playing in Ann Arbor won't be much of a factor. Seen a few OSU/Michigan games there....very overrated environment
