After today’s results, I was wondering what the spread next week will be

Be honest. if it's O'Korn playing are you taking Michigan and anything less than 20 points?
The answer to that question is what will drive the line.

I can see the spread being at least 20 with osu covering. The defense is is good but it has carried the load far too long now. I pains me to say it but IMO the game will probably be decided early 3rd qtr. This offense will need some divine intervention to make this a competitve game.

I am guessing it will be about 12, or somewhere close to that.

is more or less rating the teams about the same way. As frustated as Michigan fans are right now the Wolverines have actually been extremely consistent this year playing to a certain level in relationship to their opponent which makes them easier to grade overall.
With that said OSU will be around -14-ish. No less than 10.5 and no more than 16.5. They were -21 at Iowa and -20 at Indiana and Michigan would be about -5-ish on a neutral field versus those teams right now. Not sure how the market will react to Peters value if at all.
My numbers make the game Ohio State -13 making Michigan +17 or up a bet and OSU -10 or belwo a play both which I'd be shocked if we ever see.

My guess is Ohio by seven.

in reality if JOK is the planned starter, it should be at least 23.5 to keep an even amount of action on both sides. That is how the lines work, Legas wants an even amount of action on both sides to protect the house.
If Peters is healthy (very doubtful) then maybe 13.5 or 14.5. If JOK is the named QB, at least 24 to start and to be honest I could be persuaded that OSU could cover that because O'Korn is incapable of moving the offense. I have always been a huge UM fan, but reality says we're pretty doomed in this one.
In watching yesterday's game, one JOK came in, no one could catch the ball, no one was open and the entire offense seemed to give up.
OSU will try to do what they did yesterday, run up the score to try to get back in the playoff.
My guess is they will win on Saturday (barring some miracle) and probably destroy Wisconsin and be the fourth team in the playoff. The media and committee seem to really like OSU.

The Game opens at OSU as a -13.5 favorite. If I was a betting man on Michigan football, I would have to lay down some cash on that based on what we currently know (admittedly, it's not much)
