Back to business. I have it on good information that the line for this game has changed due to adjustment, not to unequal wagering. I wish everyone luck, but for myself I am pounding on Ohio St. and the money line. I don't see Tressel making the same mistake twice. This time he wins -- outright! Funny you said that. Just tonight, Mark May said the same thing on ESPN tonight. Makes ya think about it. Not sure as how I'll pick this one. Talking about not making the same mistake twice. GL my friend. |

No, just a backup CB is out for the game. The initial media reports erroniously reported Donald Washington was suspended, but OSU has repeatedly said only Eugene Clifford, the backup to Jenkins, is out. |

#87 Posted: 1/4/2008 10:38:28 AM being a usc grad, i dont think they deserve bcs champ game. Are they best team right NOW, probably. But they have no business going to champ-game losing to stanford @their home, period. As for this game, I have learned one thing from reading the posts here: no one can pick, predict, or know garbage about bowl games (not that i can) seems whatever consensus here take opposite (i.e. against nevada, south fla, vtech, etc..) 4 what its worth i think line is set a bit low to deceive betting public to think its "trap game" and layoff/take OSU so LSU should cover, best bet 4 me LSU 1st half |

Good for you CollegeSharp. I really like your position to hit this one. I haven't placed a bet yet, but thinking about a heavy unit play on LSU in this one. I feel the line is going to move toward OSU as ESPN seems to influence some of the public money, so I am waiting. My take so far is looking at LSU's early season performance when Dorsey, Doucett, and Flynn weer healthy is a better indicator of what we will see on Monday. They blew out Miss State and Va Tech, killed might be a better word. Then they struggled through a tough schedule. After a month off, it looks like they are ready to roll again.
Ohio State will play their guts out in this game because of the beatdown they got last year, and because there isn't great respect for their accomplishment this season. You just cannot ignore that OSU hasn't beaten a Top 20 team all year. They may be pretty good, but not likely LSU good.
Tressel is a better coach to me than Miles because Miles takes so many high risk gambles. LSU will be super fast on the artificial turf, and the crowd will be wild for LSU....big factor in a dome. LSU just has better talent when healthy, and they have had to prove it. Good luck to both of us.

#91 Posted: 1/4/2008 1:55:45 PM Aloha All:
I've been following LSU for some time now and feel comfortable with them in this game but, it could go either way IMHO. I like that LSU's "D" will be back to full force and that animal Dorsey will put alot of pressure on Boeckman to force some mistakes. I feel that Boeckman is not as good a scrambler as Matt and Ryan but, he is a pure passer.
I do believe that this will not be a blow out game and that it could/would be a difference of a TD or FG. Either way, I have LSU at the game (-3 with the hook) pretty big as this is my biggest bowl game this season.
Aloha and GL to whichever side you are choosing!  |

Our (U.S.A) democracy is perverted by open bribery on capital hill.
George Bush's brother help the Reps steal not one but TWO election that
have made a select few very wealthy while killing our younger
generation(s), and driving down the greater populace of the world.
BUT Frank Beamer kept the order by suspending Brandon Ore, and thereby
taking the Hokie running game out of the 1st quater oF this game. Why?
'B/c Beamer plays by the rules?' B/c "coach rules w/ an iron first yo"?
B/c if he hadn't have suspended Ore for that quarter, it would've led to anarchy.
No. The fact is Beamer is an a.s.s.hole of the highest magnitude. He
thought, "hey, we're gonna whoop KU anyway. They're No. 8, and *we're*
No. 3". "Sh!t, we should be playing LSU on Monday. This one is in the
bad".
Beamer did what he did to satisfy his own ego. He didn't do it, "b/c
the man is a teacher first" or *any* of the BS. The guy gets paid to
coach football. And the proof as to weather he is a "good" coach, is
that his team wins. Not just win "run of the mill games", but win "the
big game(s)".
VT could've failed to cover in this game and I would've been fine w/
losing my cash, b/c it still would've been uplifting to see Tech win a
big game when the whole country (w/ exceptiong to Kansas) was cheering
for them and wanting to see them succeed.
Alas, I failed to account for Beamer and his idiotic choices. You could
pin that loss on the team, and certainly they played their part.
However, as w/ any sport, it's all about momentum.
By the time VT finally scored (surprise surprise, Ore scored when he was allowed ot play) the game had all but been decided.
Thanks a lot and F_CK YOU Beamer. Hopefully VT comes to it's senses and fires your troglodyte a.s.s. 
Yes, I'm aware I wrote "bad" rather than "bag"

#93 Posted: 1/4/2008 5:14:26 PM Ohio State fans are a lot like their coach. Whiny and arrogant... Although I think the SEC is far more supererior then the Big Ten I am trying to be objective when I discuss  .
I love my favorite teams too. But $$$ is $$$ and I don't bet with my heart, just my head.
I encourage LSU and OSU fans to do the same.   Stop the violence! |

#94 Posted: 1/4/2008 5:18:18 PM Boy I tell you what looking at the OSU schedule I don't see too too many tough teams. Maybe a weaker Penn State team, Wisconsin kinda had a down year, and you never knew which Michigan team would show up. Plus Tressel always had Carr's number anyway.
But Illinois sure surprised them like LSU was surprised twice. So I can see how OSU had the year they did.
So first round: Strength of schedule goes to LSU.  |
