Both have strong red-zone defenses, which is probably why both groups qualified for this game. deskgameThe Wolverines will be missing their top three rushers and their top two pass catchers. The top running back on the depth chart will be Benjamin Hall, who had 44 yards on 13 carries this season. The top two pass catches will be WR Semaj Morgan and TE Marlin Klein, who combined for 35 receptions, 235 receiving yards and one touchdown this season. deskgameMake a deposit of $5 or more ($10 in WV and MI). deskgameOne bet to consider is Ohio State WR Jeremiah Smith to record 125+ receiving yards (+290 odds).
