The No. 3 Ohio State Buckeyes will try to strengthen their case to be included in the College Football Playoff when they take on the Michigan State Spartans on Saturday at Spartan Stadium in East Lansing, Mich. The Buckeyes (4-0) are ranked fourth in the latest CFP rankings, but, because of a late start to the Big Ten season and two canceled games, have played just four games this season, well shy of other teams vying for one of the four spots in the playoff.

Ohio State has one of the best players in the country in Fields. The junior from Kennesaw, Ga., leads the country in completion percentage (79.6) and ranks second in points responsible for per game (24.0). He also is fourth in passing efficiency (202.1).
In addition, the Buckeyes have been highly successful on the road for much of the last decade. Since the start of the 2012 season, Ohio State has a 35-3 record in true road games. Its 92.1 road winning percentage leads the country, and the average margin of victory in those games has been 18.4 points.
Quarterback Rocky Lombardi sparked the Michigan State offense last week in the upset of Northwestern. After being benched in favor of Payton Thorne in the Spartans' previous game, Lombardi completed a modest 11-of-27 passes for 167 yards and two touchdowns, but four of his completions moved the chains on third down. He also ran for a career-high 65 yards on 10 carries; five of his runs extended drives, including one that kept the winning field goal drive alive.
In addition, if last week is any indication, the defense is playing its best ball of the season. After making just five sacks and causing five turnovers through the first four games, Michigan State had a season-high four sacks and four turnovers against the Wildcats. Defensive end Drew Beesley made two sacks, and cornerback Shakur Brown added two interceptions to bring his season total to five, which is tied for the most in the Big Ten.
SportsLine's model is leaning under on the total. In fact, it says both teams will combine for just 48 points. It also says one side of the spread hits more than 50 percent of the time. You can only get the pick at SportsLine.
