Ohio State vs. Michigan

This year's edition of one of College Football's greatest rivalries is shaping up to be one of the most exciting in years. The highlight this season for both teams has been their electric quarterbacks, Denard Robinson and Terrelle Pryor, who both are "dual threats"; they can throw and run the football exceptionally well. Robinson ranks third in the nation in rushing yards per game, while Pryor's specialty is in the passing game, where he is one the country's most efficient. Both teams will put up amazing offensive numbers behind their stars, but the difference comes down to defense. Whichever team can rise to the challenge of the opposing quarterback will win. Michigan and Ohio State both boast solid run defenses, led by Mike Martin and Cameron Heyward, respectively. However, Michigan's porous pass defense hasn't been able to handle anyone this season, and Pryor will be no exception. Prediction: Robinson keeps the wolverines in it early, but Pryor gashes the Michigan defense, leading Ohio State to a 45- 24 win.
