This is normal in close elections because undecided voters make their decision just prior to election day, making the polls closer. It's not due to some nefarious pollsters. 8% undecideds picking a choice will make the polls tighter than when 8% are undecided.
In other words polling data doesn't mean a whole lot until last call. That's the number which counts towards the reputation of polling firms.
First of all, the last person to win the general election by 9 points was Reagan in 1984.
That is simply not possible nowadays.
Secondly, if you ARE winning the national vote by 9 points, YOU ARE GOING TO WIN OHIO.
Period.
You'll see.
Biden will likely win the national vote by about 5% now. He lost Ohio by 8%. That is a 13% spread. He could have easily lost Ohio even if he had won the national vote by 9%.
