OSU Counterintelligence: 11W film study; Urban Meyer analysis
For those who want to see how OSU football wonks view the matchups, here's Eleven Warriors' film study article, which downplays the role of sign-stealing and calls attention to the strength of Michigan's defensive interior.
Meanwhile, Urban Meyer outlines how, in his view, Michigan can be "dominated."

Urban meyer: "Ohio state WILL stop the run"

Meyer has really become more extreme on his bias for OSU.

Urban is obviously brilliant at college football coaching.
Harbaugh no doubt gets tips from his brother, who’s also a great coach in a tougher league to succeed in (NFL), as was Jim.
We’re well aware of a few questions re: the O-line this year. But what we haven’t seen is how the current personnel match up, or what Michigan’s strategy will be.
McCarthy will be the difference-maker if he has the game he’s capable of. If his passing opens up the run game, it’s over for OSU no matter what their plan is.
For some reason I’m pretty confident and usually I’m not.

The same Urban Meyer who went 2-11 with the Jaguars, was fired mid-season, and became the laughingstock of the NFL? That Urban Meyer? Yeah he doesn’t know anything.

Inside of the Michigan football program they 100% believe Ryan Day has a lot to do with the PI into Michigan. If you truly want to stick it to Day and even Meyer, then go out there and kick their ass tomorrow. The only way Michigan can fight back against Ryan Day right now is to beat OSU again and push them to get rid of him, because the B1G and NCAA don't care if he is involved with the PI or not.

The 11W article is a joke. It dismisses Michigan as a team that is falling apart heading into The Game and a team that relied a lot on sign stealing. It's all wishful thinking disguised as analysis.
Once again, Ohio State is not taking Michigan seriously.
Bet.

Yes, the fans down here are smug now that they know the last two years didn't really happen.
I assume the players and staff aren't that stupid but who knows....

I've a friend that says UM is a team in crisis.
"The entire Michigan program is hinging on them winning"
"If they lose, it could be a complete rebuild"
And, taking about it being so rare that both teams being undefeated...
"It's hard when Michigan has been so mediocre for the last 50 years"
I want Michigan to win just so I can hear the excuses. Again.

I'm not watching any of this. We know what we have to do.

Just run it 60 times if their only shot is the pass rush. They really can't stop it.

I really hope it’s that simple. But I think JJ has to play well for us to win. And I think he can.

That article is the first reasonable take from the other side I’ve seen this year

Kirk Barton slurs more than Gary Busey or young RDJ
