Who you got?: #2 Ohio State vs. #10 Miami

It's Miami week, and already we are to Tuesday! Here are the writers picks and why.

Ian: 28-17 Ohio State - The Bucks come out firing, then stutter in the second quarter. Pryor looks good. Harris rattled in the first, but calms down in the second. Defense wins the game in the second half.

SBB: 31-24 Ohio State - Is not as close as the score appears, as Miami gets a TD with about 2 minutes left in the game. Terrelle Pryor will step up in this game, but Jacory Harris will as well. The defensive line will be lead by Heyward, but Moeller will be the defensive star once more.

Brady: 31-21 Ohio State - The Buckeyes will have their hands full with Jacory Harris.   Hankerson and the other speedsters on the outside will be a challenge for the secondary but I expect the D to tighten up and shut down the Canes by the second half.  After all, they see a better version of Jacory everyday in practice.  On the offensive side, Saine and the other backs have to come out strong to ensure the success of the passing game.  This will be a huge early test but I believe the Bucks will be up for the challenge.

Danny: 24-10 Ohio StateJacory Harris home stats last season: 65% completion percentage, 14 TD's 9 picks, and 11 sacks taken.  Away stats: 55% completion percentage with only 10 touchdowns, 8 picks, and 23 sacks taken.  Buckeyes defense and home crowd rattle Harris early and often en route to a 24-10 victory.
