38-7 at the horseshoe. Can you take Wisconsin at less than +28
Same-season rematch.
I lean to the well-disciplined 'dog.
OSU should be about a two-touchdown favorite.
The only thing I would say is....................THE Ohio State knows all they need to do is WIN. Score is meaningless. If they and LSU win, LSU will jump to #1 and OSU #2. If LSU loses then OSU will go to #1
Having said that I might wait and not bet the game but see about LIVE betting. If Wisky scores first you can less than 16.5/17 and if OSU scores first the rout might be on and laying a bigger number might make more sense since the game could quickly get out of hand
If both Win Out, I would ask, Why LSU would jump Ohio St. ?
Still believe Committee Looks at Margin of Victory, the Level of Domination of your opponent, Style Points, Eye Test, etc.
If LSU showed all those Factors, and Ohio St. won in a unconvincing Fashion, LSU may jump them in that scenario.
When you say score is meaningless, that may not necessarily be the case. Ohio St. may want to try to blow out Wisconsin, if #1 Seed matters to them.
shut own
Also, if Oklahoma and Utah both win out, I think those Factors I mentioned, will determine the #4 Seed.
If Utah beats Oregon in Overtime, and Oklahoma beats Baylor by 40, who's #4 ?
I disagree with FW on if both OU and Utah win out. Utah had the "better loss" although I know that doesn't have a huge impact. If Utah and OU met on a Neutral field Utah would win. I am 100% sure of it because Utah's D could shut down OU's Offense but OU's D ain't shutting down Utah's O. On a neutral field who would be favored - and win - between Baylor/Oregon? Oregon would and Oregon would win rather easily. Utah's win will be much better than OU's would.
As for BM's question: I believe LSU should - and probably would - be #1 because beating #4 UGA would be far more impressive than THE Ohio State beating a Wisky team that is good - not great. Even if THE Ohio State wins 59-0 and LSU only beats UGA by 3 I'd still put LSU #1 for a more impressive body of work over the entire season
OU should be ahead of Utah if both win.
Two wins over Baylor.What would be your reasoning for that.
Two wins over Baylor.
If you get in the final four just win out, I think other than for seeding who's #1 or #2 is overrated.
I don't think anyone is going to beat Ohio State this year regardless where they seed them or who they play.
It’s still an 11-win team in a power 5 conference they beat twice. Utah doesn’t have a win on their resume that good.One that was very lucky and one........???
2 wins over a mediocre Baylor side doesn't win many arguments
It’s still an 11-win team in a power 5 conference they beat twice. Utah doesn’t have a win on their resume that good.
Actual play, I would make OU -1. Perception of programs, OU -2. Utah has been one of the best kept secrets for years.Neutral Field - whatcha making for a OU/Utah game? Just know if you make OU the fave I will be placing a rather large ML bet on Utah
If Wisky wins, they are more deserving than one loss UTAH/OREGON/OKLA clubs
I think Clemson is better.
Neutral Field Line on LSU/ OHIO ST. Matchup ?
I'm an SEC guy but still make Buckeyes easily solid TD + chalk...... total would be up there.
Others better at this than me but my guess:
Ohio State 8
Over/Under 63
Patrick, I agree but if we think this way then how do we play it out? Game by game or place the future bet now? Well say between +160 and +180 futures wise...
I think you're high on this one, 8 seems like a lot
Where are you at in it Kane?
FG or so?
I think you're high on this one, 8 seems like a lot
3 weeks to recover before playoffs.
Harbaugh pretty much answered a reporter's question about what happened but the reporter asked something in a slick way.
"I'll answer your questions not insults" they were better......
They are. Theres nothing to digest and break down. Ohio State is a championship caliber team and us as gamblers have to find a way to capitalize..
I'd agree they're the 2nd best team but overall the Buckeyes easily the better team (IMO).
Clemson hasn't played anyone, one top 30 team all year.
