Through 11 weeks both Ohio State and Michigan are 10-1. 

Ohio State has had 854 offensive plays and ran the ball 60% of those plays vs. 40% passing.

Michigan has had 791 offensive plays and ran the ball 63% of those plays vs 37% passing.

Ohio State has beaten it's opponents by an average of 27.7 points per game; Michigan has beaten it's opponents by an average of 31.4 points per game.

Opponents:

Ohio State's opponents have had 718 offensive plays and have run the ball 54% of those plays vs. 46% passing.

Michigan's opponents have had 665 offensive plays and have run the ball 60% of those plays vs 40% passing.

Offense:

Based on yardage, OSU's offensive yardage has been 53% rushing, 47% passing. Michigan's offensive yardage has been 55% rushing, 45% passing.

Pretty even offenses.  The big question marks are O'Korn vs Speight, and JT's regression / predictable play calling that forgets Samuel end arounds, jet sweeps, etc.

Defense:

Again, defensive comparison is pretty equal.

Turnovers, both teams' QBs have thrown 4 interceptions this season. Both teams have given up 4 fumbles.  OSU opponents had 22 turnovers this season, while Michigan opponents had 16 turnovers, so hopefully the OSU ball hawks keep it up!

Should be a good game!
