If Oregon gets to +2, they will win, period.. I am a huge Ohio State fan, but with Oregon's pace and explosiveness, if Jones, in his 3rd start, on this big of stage, finds himself/team down by 14 going into the forth quarter, its going to be tough to catch up to Oregon.. Ohio States defense needs to come up with a few stops, in key drives; opening drive, right before halftime, obviously down the stretch.. If Ohio State doesn't panic if/when they find themselves down by 14 early (like they did against Alabama), and they just stick to the game plan and trust the system, they will be in the game down the stretch. This game may be like an Arena Football game, or tennis match if you will, it may not come down to who scores to gain momentum, but which defense can make a stop and break serve. Holding a team like Oregon to a field goal instead of a TD, is huge!! They will get 500+ yards and most likely 35+ points, but 2 or 3 field goals instead of TDs, takes a score of 49, down to 37.. That will make all the difference in this game for Ohio State.. Go Bucks!!!!!

Ohio States last title was 2002, not 2005....
And yes, they have 7 titles.... Hopefully they will be winning their 8th later today!!! Go Bucks!!!!!

I'm with you on Bama, Penn St, Florida St and Northwestern.. One of my biggest plays wk 1 is Nebraska(-28) -vs- Wyoming.. I think Nebraska wins by 40+.. Have you looked at this game at all? If you have, what are your thoughts?

I would be cautious with buffalo +36.5.. I agree that the Buckeyes have a tendency to play down to their opponents, but typically not in week 1.. week 1 2012: 56-10 over Miami OH week 1 2011: 42-0 over Akron week 1 2010: 45-7 over Marshall These games are usually somewhat close at half, 24-10 type game, but will probably end up being a 45+ point victory for OSU.. Last year week 1 Braxton went: - 14/24 for 207 yds and 2 TD - 17 carries for 161 yds and 1 TD Urban probably doesnt want him to have 27 carries in this game, like he had in week 2 last year against UCF, but I dont think that Braxton will be held back.. There's no question that Hyde will be missed week one in the Buckeyes offense and Rod Smith for that matter (#2 rb also suspended week 1), but Urban knows that with a very easy schedule he cant afford to just win games, these games need to be won by as many points as possible and in a flashy and dominate manor. If three teams go unbeaten, with OSU's strength of schedule, there's a chance that an undefeated Oregon could easily jump OSU in the polls. So I dont think that Urban will hold anything back. I have the game being 52-10.. Just my opinion.. Best of luck to you!!! |

Im with you on Michigan and ASU... I have my doubts with Seahawks.. Think Wilson has a bit of a sophmore slump.. Think they still make the playoffs but I dont have them winning the NFC.. BOL!! |

I agree with dytide... They will show up, but put him in a tough close game in the 4th quarter and they wont give it everything they have... That being said, Im probably still betting on them... |

Solid picks.. Im with you on all 3.. I think Oregon dominates and ND has a chance to win the game late.. Oklahoma better figure a few things out if they dont want to get embarrassed in yet another bowl game... Good Luck!!!

I will be keeping an eye on the Rose Bowl line.. Not that Wisc had much of a shot against Stanford with Beilema, this cant help... And I agree with hiring the Pitt coach!!! |
