Ohio State will win The Game. That's what Lee Corso thinks, at least.
Ahead of the Buckeyes battle with the Wolverines, the ESPN College GameDay co-host donned the Brutus headgear for the 37th time since the college football pregame started in 1996.
Corso is going with the Buckeyes!

Ohio State is favored to beat Michigan in The Game by more than a touchdown on Saturday. The Buckeyes will welcome their rivals to Columbus and into the Horseshoe for the first time since 2018 when they beat the Wolverines in blowout fashion, 62-39. The programs will both be undefeated for the first time since the 2006 season when Ohio State defeated Michigan, 42-39, in "The Game of the Century."
How have the Buckeyes done when Corso picks Ohio State?
- He’s picked the Buckeyes in 17 visits and is 14-7 in headgear picks. Of the previous visits to The Game, Corso has a split selection of 4-4 between Ohio State and Michigan and is 5-3 with those picks.
- Corso has correctly picked all eight games this season, and, dating back to last season, the team represented by the headgear he picks has won 12 consecutive times.
- Before today, Corso donned the Brutus headgear 36 times – the most of any team. Ohio State is 25-11 with those picks. His very first headgear pick in 1996 was also Brutus in Columbus.
