*10* ANNIHILATOR on Ohio State.

The Ohio State Buckeyes will be a significant underdog at home tonight against a Michigan State team that is behind them in the BIG10 standings. The Spartans are 5-3 on the road, and they won their last road game at Purdue. I think Michigan State comes into this game a little overrated.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Previous History - The Buckeyes have won three straight home games against Michigan State, and four of the last five games between the two teams have been decided by four points or fewer. Ohio State is 4-1 ATS in it's last five home games.

2. Ohio State Defense - The Buckeyes have been dominant defensively on their home floor, holding opponents to just 61.2 points per game. The Spartans have scored an average of 61.6 points in their last three road games at Ohio State.

3. X-Factor - The home team is 5-2-1 ATS in the last 8 meetings.

Selection: This is a play on the Ohio State Buckeyes (10*)
