Fox ‘Big Noon Kickoff’ crew picks winners of Ohio State vs. Michigan in ‘The Game’

It’s big game day Ohio State fans, and it’s one of the biggest in the history of the Ohio State-Michigan rivalry, not only because of where each team is in the standings and rankings, but because of all of the off-the-field stuff swirling around the Wolverines.

You know it’s a big one when both the ESPN “College GameDay” crew and Fox “Big Noon Kickoff” show is on site in Ann Arbor to take it all in.

Buckeye Nation has one of its own on the set of the Fox crew in former head coach Urban Meyer, and we always like to keep track of the picks he and his colleagues make in the biggest of games.

Here’s how all of the members of the Fox crew picked to win in the 118th edition of “The Game” on Saturday.
