Miami Ohio at Ohio State

Ohio State has had one of the top programs in the country over the last several years. They were hurt by infractions a year ago that sent them down, but they now have one of the most successful coaches in college football at the helm in Urban Meyer, so the excitement is high for the season to get underway. Meyer has a career record of 104-23. Ohio State has a storied history with coaches in their first game as they have posted a 21-1-1 career mark, and they have beaten 57 straight unranked, non-conference opponents. Miami, Ohio was just 4-8 a year ago. They were pretty good on the defensive side, but they lost two of their top three tacklers from a year ago. The Red Hawks play a lot of out-of-conference games early, and they are just 3-9 ATS in their last 12 September tilts. The Buckeyes are 55-27-1 ATS in their last 83, and Urban Meyer isn't afraid to run it up. Play on Ohio State.
