Mac guys?? Am I missing something here? Is this not a must win game for Ohio and a "lets hurry up n get to the party" game for Kent?
Seems to easy....

OHIO -3' @ KENT
- Thread starter AceRagzz
- Start date
Wow.... I have to agree with you...... I can't play it because it's too generous of a line... seems fishy
If it was -6 or -7 I would be all over it.
I took Ohio -3 with the buy. Kent can't go bowling with a win. I know Ohio's QB is banged up, but he was last week and they still clobbered Temple.
Ohio has to win to play Northern Illinois... it's not like they're looking ahead because Miami, Ohio would win the division with an Ohio loss.

This is a total let down game for Ohio coming off a big win. Kent hasn't covered last three and are due. Looking to close out year and be spoilers. Line begging for ohio $. Line should be atleast 6.
lets not over think this people. if that were the case everyone would have took a horrible texas team tonight against a&m, and i know that didnt happen did it? lol.......atleast not to me. lesson is TAKE THE BETTER TEAM AND HAVE A GOOD NIGHTS REST, LOSE AND REGRET U DIDNT. :0008
I did Texas was the right side. Can't account for 17pts off of turnovers. I do believe you are right that the bobcats are the better team but the better team doesn't always cash the ticket Mark my words Kent will cover in a sloppy poor played game. Bank it!!!
sometimes I think they just make to lines small to fk with our heads, if this was -6 I think you guys are right, there would be more confidence in betting Ohio, this same trick put me off the Falcons -3 last sunday in the NFL but whatever, I'm still rolling the dice here with Ohio:SIB :SIB

I agree, Kent is due to cover, line is too low. I think the books are done giving away money for the Holiday week.

It would seem that any reasonable discussion of this contest would include a word about the Kent State coaching situation, the return to good health of Eugene Jarvis and the high sustained winds of 18 mph gusting to around 25 mph that are projected today. Skies clear, wind chill around 22 degrees.
I would expect that OU takes the Golden Flushes very, very best shot today. What more motivating fators could you ask for? Kent's Martin will be coaching his last game. Local word has it that Martin only agreed to resign only if he were allowed to coach this one last game. It's senior day in Kent ( hard to beileve but some of the Flashes are actually on cource to graduate) but that is motivation as well.The black friday crowd should be small and OU fans travel well so home field advantage will be small at best. I expect to see as much green as blue and gold in the crowd. Ticket sales were so low for this one that Kent announced that a football ticket stub will get you in free for the hoops game later.
Kent RB Eugene Jarvis is a major talent who just got his feet back under him last week after missing almost the entire season. His return makes the Kent rushing attack a viable threat today, especially when considering that the winds should limit QB Keith's tosses downfield. I really think that OU loads the box and will try to force Keith to make some plays which will probably be needed for Kent to win this game.
The Flushes do have some studs on defense and are awesome against the run (2.8 ypc). This is key because Solich wants to control this game on the ground. OU QB Boo Jackson can be a turnover machine and must avoid mistakes while making plays with both his arm and legs himself. A healthy Bates also is a big plus for the Bobcats on offense since they lost their best receiver, Brazzil awhile back.
I am holding OU -3 which I got earlier in the week and the under at 47'. I must admit that I am nervous about the side one but do feel the total is solid. I really think that this is a classic case of the team taking the best care of the ball emerging as the victors. TO's will be a huge factor.
Perhaps the best option for those not down on this yet would be to try to actually watch a first half of football to see how all these factors are playing out.
But I do expect a lot of emotion out of Kent today. I think that they keep it close for a long time with OU prevailing in the end. No doubt about it, the Bobcats are the better total package, but we all know that the best team does not always win.
Good luck however you decide to attack this one.

The winds are mighty strong, forecast was right on the money. Probably won't be quite as windy for the Akron game.
Nice fumble in your end zone. Thats the kind of stupid shit that you just can't handicap :facepalm:
smart play u fkin idiot QB! How long u wanna hold the ball in ur endzone??? Ohio looked descent on their opening drive then the retarded shit started with the fg block and this crapola:facepalm:
To whomever said Kent was the right play, congratulations! Squares and public will get crushed on this game and books and sharps will win.
I thought Ohio should have gone for the 4th and 2 when they got their FG blocked. I also can't believe you allow a TD by fumbling deep in your own end. I know it's only 7-0, but points will be a premium in this freezing cold weather.

wow destructor.... already paying out the Kent St tickets? Kent does not look good, if Ohio can put a couple good drives together i can see the flashes getting discouraged easily
Not sure if the Ohio players are on the fix, but that fake punt was beyond terrible as well. Oh well, this game is a loss. Kent came ready to play and Ohio didn't which is shocking considering a weak Miami, Ohio team will be playing in the MAC title game.
