Thinking Penn St. here.Both Defenses give up about the same yardage ,overall, home and away ,and in the last 3 games.
 
Using the average scores for ,overall,H/A ,and last 3 games it comes out Penn.St. 41 to 9,and OSU 27 to 10.
 
OSU did get woompt by USC,and USC lost to Oregon St,and Penn St woompt Oregon St.

PSU ---------IF we containe Beanie & Pryor the Lions get out of Columbus with a win. I think they will get into endzone 3 or more times. This game will be won in the trenches, that's where I give PSU the edge. Sorry Hunted not this week my friend.
Penn St.- 24              Ohio St.-17

1st post here.... I think OSU SU is the play.... Penn feel asleep last week and was lucky they was playing Michigan.... Winning by that much after being sluggish the 1st half is going to go to their heads.... OSU has played the harder schedule by far and Prior is starting to come around plus he will be at home.....

Penn. St.- 17        Ohio St.- 21

 Ohio St. +2 at home....give me the buckeyes all day.  I'll let the public pound Penn St and possibly get more pts....but then again....I think Ohio St wins straight up so the pts aren't necessary.
 
 Ohio St +2

I like Penn St. to win and then run the table and play for the national championship.  After all Ohio ST. represented the Big 10 the last two yrs so why not another Big 10 loser!!!  My opinion.

I'm REALLY HOPING that Penn St will win this game, BUT I feel that Ohio St WILL win. I know that Penn St outscored Michigan 39 - 0 to END the game, BUT the way that Ohio State BEAT the SH*T out of Michigan St ( at Michigan St) impresses the hell out of me. That win by Ohio St, the way that they did it, tells me that they are MORE than ready for Penn St & that their offense is back on track !!!
Again, I REALLY HOPE that Penn St wins this game, BUT...............
Final score:  Ohio St  28  Penn State 14

I'm sure it's been awhile since the Buckeyes were home team dogs.  I think they defend their home turf and win straight up.

I'm in need of some help from you guys.  About 3 weeks ago I had a guy call me out for the amounts that I'm wagering and I invited him to Vegas with me in November.  Well, I've booked another trip arriving in Vegas Nov. 14 and I'm trying to remember who that was to see if he's going to meet me there.  If anyone remembers please let me know on this blog or in My Space.  It would be much appreciated.  Sharp

The Big Ten is decided this week.
 
The lights are being brought in for a rare night game at The Shoe and my boys are starting to click on offense. PST hasn't seen anything close to this defense. No need to state my case here. You all know my feelings.
 
Home dog.
 
Okay I'm all-in

Well they could have been looking head but I can't find a reason why. Although Michigan sucks this year it is still a huge rival game that Michigan had won the last 9 years. So personally I don't think they was looking ahead. I think they just slipped up. It may or may not transfer over but there is no way I am giving them points going into the horseshoe.....

Penn State wins... my pick is 27-17.   It will be a tough game, yes, decided in the 2nd half.  OSU woke up last week, but had some help in the form of 5 turnovers, 150 return yds, and an injury to the Mich St QB Hoyer in the 1st qtr.

Wait a minute... Ohio State is catching points at home? In that stadium? WOW! It's early yet. But I have a feeling that I may not be able to stay away from this one. I like the Buckeyes with the short number.

OSU's performance against USC probably isn't the best gauge here, IMO.  Wells and Pryor make this a completely different offensive team. 
The defense will probably still get slapped in the face.  Laurinaitis can still stop the ball if they run it at him, but why would Lions do that? 
I'm gonna take a close look at the over here...

These teams are essentially evenly matched. I'll take the home team getting points in a game like this every time. Especially if it gets up to +3.
