Ohio State should take care of business;\u00a0There will be upsets aplenty this weekend<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Oklahoma State Cowboys and the Sooners of Oklahoma take the Turkey Day weekend off in preparation for their Big Twelve tussle next Saturday in Norman. The winner takes the conference title for 2016 and a spot in the Sugar Bowl, at least, and keeps hopes alive for a Final Four bid.\u00a0 The kickoff is another roster start at 11:30 am.\u00a0 OU is 9-2 and Oklahoma State at the same with one of those Poke losses to Baylor of the Big Twelve.\u00a0 OU is a perfect 8-0 in conference.<\/p>\n

The biggest game of the weekend will be in Columbus, Ohio where the #2 ranked Buckeyes host the Michigan Wolverines, who are just one spot in the country at #3.\u00a0 Both have one loss and a win would be significant in getting into that Final Four playoff.\u00a0 Ohio State is my pick.\u00a0 Look for a 24-13 Buckeye win as Michigan will suffer at quarterback with their best quarterback out.<\/p>\n
