I know many of you do not care one way or the other if OSU or TTUN finishes with a higher 2016 class. We have an elite 2016 class and if we get jumped in the 247 team rankings, it's not a huge deal for me. Especially since we beat them by 29 in AA.

However I have seen many wonder what would it take for them to jump us. Bucknuts editor, Dave Biddle even said this, "This will get me in trouble with the Ohio State contingent, but my bold prediction is Michigan will have a great finish and will leap the Buckeyes in the final 247Sports Composite team rankings."

Right now OSU sits 2nd in the 247 Team Rankings at 286.05. TTUN is 6th at 262.72.

Let's just say they land everyone they are targeting: Gary, Hill, Asiasi, Murphy, Tagaloa, Jackson, and Nordin. That would put them at 32, yes 32 commits and give them a team composite ranking of 288.16.

Meanwhile simply adding Malcolm Pridgeon would OSU at 288.70 and only be at 24 recruits.

So OSU would have a higher rated class with having 8 fewer commits.

Maybe Harbaugh can try some more milk and cookies on his sleepovers next year.
