Ohio State vs Maryland Preview + Prediction | College Football 2023
from College Football with Sam · host Samuel Recker
An upset win for Maryland results in the College Football world lights itself on fire. A dominant performance by Ohio State results in College Football's 2023 season pursuing business as usual. Over 80% of all public bets are on Maryland to cover a 19.5-point spread that is modest for an Ohio State home game. That implies that many think this game will be competitive. However, Ohio State has several key advantages that make a Maryland win unlikely. In spite of having 5 sacks compared to Maryland's 13, the Buckeyes have a great pass rush and an elite defense, allowing only 9 points per game while Maryland allows 15 points per game. Ohio State also has the superior quarterback according to ESPN, with Kyle McCord having the 8th-best QBR while Taulia Tagovailoa only has the 26th-best. My prediction for this game is Ohio State wins and covers the 19.5-point spread coming off of the bye week. Maryland Football is improving as a program, but Ohio State Football still has superior players and coaches, which is why I think they will dominate this undefeated matchup.
