Ohio State vs Tennessee prediction, pick
Can Ohio State rebound after stumbling at the end of the season? They get their chance against the Tennessee Volunteers, who are surprisingly talented on defense.
While they are much better, the Buckeyes can still beat you through the air or on the ground. They have weapons everywhere. The Vols hold up for a while, but eventually, the dam breaks and the Buckeyes survive.
Prediction: Ohio State 24, Tennessee 17
