even though im an ohioan, im very much anti-buckeyes. actually i hate em. that being said, i think they might get the job done tonight and cover, even sans clarett.
my initial lean was to washington, because the huskies are a damn good offensive team and potentially a live dog.
the one thing that scares me though is that ohio state is extremely physical and could dominate the line of scrimmage here. its always risky going with a pac-10 finesse-type team traveling to play a more physical team who is gonna come right at you on the ground.
kind of reminds me of last years texas tech/ohio state game. tech was explosive on offense and seemed to be a live dog, but ohio state was just way way too physical for them and dominated the line of scrimmage. same went for washington state when they came to columbus.
all in all, i pass. theres gonne be PLENTY of prime spots to go against ohio state. theyre probably gonna lose 3 games this year in my opinion. but this wont be one of them. as much as id like to see em lose this game. i think theyll control the line of scrimmage and the clock. we'll see
