💰 Best Ohio State vs. Michigan parlay picks & SGP bets

🚀 Carnell Tate anytime TD (+125) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

With Carnell Tate set to return to the lineup for Ohio State, the projected first-round pick is poised to be the Buckeyes' X-factor. Michigan has been more susceptible through the air than on the ground this season, allowing 12 passing touchdowns, and Tate's big-play ability should create mismatches.

Tate has the best contested catch rate in the country of any player with at least 10 contested targets (92.3%), and he's top 10 in the country in yards per route run (3.5). The junior has scored a touchdown is six of eight games this season.

🚀 Bryce Underwood Under 154.5 passing yards (-114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

While there's no denying Bryce Underwood's talent as the former No. 1 recruit in the country, the freshman has not seen a defense as loaded as Ohio State's this season. The Buckeyes have several potential first-round picks, including Arvell Reese and Caleb Downs, which is why they're allowing the fewest passing yards per game in the nation (126.6).

Underwood has flashed some impressive ability; however, he's struggled against quality defenses, averaging 123.5 passing yards per game against defenses ranked top 35 by SP+. Matt Patricia's Ohio State defense is ranked No. 1 by SP+. 

 Our Philip Wood is also fading Underwood in his Ohio State vs. Michigan prediction.

🚀 Jeremiah Smith Over 6.5 receptions (+114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

The best wide receiver in the country will need to get fed if Ryan Day hopes to end his losing streak against Michigan. The Wolverines are just No. 44 in EPA per pass on defense, so Smith will likely be the focal point of Ohio State's game plan ... which means plenty of targets for the All-American.

Smith leads the country in reception rate among players with at least 80 targets this season (82.1%) and is averaging 7.5 receptions per game in the eight games he's played at least 40 snaps. This is among my favorite Ohio State vs. Michigan player props, too.
