Big Noon Kickoff was live from Columbus for Week 14 with Ohio State and Michigan gearing up for The Game. FOX’s Saturday morning pre-game show has made a regular habit of visiting the Buckeyes, and Ohio State is looking to end the year on a high note.

If Ohio State wins on Saturday, the Buckeyes will be undefeated when featured in FOX’s prime time slot this season. A win would also send Ryan Day’s program back to the Big Ten Championship Game for the first time since 2020.

On the other hand, a win by Sherrone Moore and the Wolverines would be a devastating blow for the Buckeyes and a thrilling win for Michigan. The Game has been dominated by Michigan for 3 straight seasons, and another win would be an upset of massive proportions in 2024.

With that in mind, here is how the Big Noon Kickoff crew picked The Game:

  • Brady Quinn — 30-10, Ohio State
  • Mark Ingram — 32-14, Ohio State
  • Matt Leinart — 35-10, Ohio State
  • Charles Woodson — 30-27, Michigan
  • Urban Meyer — 35-14, Ohio State

Most of the picks fall right in line with the betting odds. Ohio State was -19.5 for much of the week of preparation, and only Michigan legend Charles Woodson was willing to pick the Wolverines coming out with a win.

Fans can check out all the live action on FOX, and be sure to use Tradition’s Ohio sports betting promos to get into the live odds throughout Rivalry Week.
