Mount St. Mary’s Mountaineers vs. Ohio State Buckeyes Prediction

I’m on the Buckeyes here. Mount St. Mary’s has one win over a bad Saint Francis team to their name and covered against Maryland, but I think that game said more about how bad Maryland is this year. Ohio State’s been blowing out inferior competition at home all year long, and I think Ohio State does it here as well. Give me the Buckeyes in this one.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Ohio State -26.5
