    I think this is a good pick and fair comments. I don't think M is going to get asswailed either......which is why I bet all my remaining coinage from AA's Pick Contest on M to cover the 11.5 spread.

    But, you can't have a good feeling about winning this game. This isn't 1969 and while M fans may see a tantalizingly close game at some point, it won't last.

      • Ohio State's schedule next season is ideal for breaking in a new QB/god-fucking-awful.

          You got me checking and TCU is loaded with seniors. And they'll have a new QB too

          EDIT: I mean seniors this year. Next year will be a ton of new starters

            • 5-2 to get to 51-48-1. Woot! You take that to Vegas and you'd only lose a few bucks!

              My best prediction of the season: the OSU-M game won't be close to the number -- either a blowout or M almost wins. M ends up covering by the hook.

              OSU opens up at 6 vs. Wisky. Underdog has covered 6 straight B10 CGs.

              • osu has been spotty good in 2017. If the Hornibrook that hit three big, well defended passes against M shows up, osu is going to have trouble.

                Haskins remains an unkown to me. He looked like the better QB than jtb v. M but looks deceive.

                I think Wisconsin is better than we all think they are.

                • Wisconsin's defense is pretty good and will give OSU's offense all sorts of problems.

                  Hornibrook may hit a couple throws. That's to be expected. Hell, JOK even had 2 or 3 really good throws. But that's not enough.

                  I'm more concerned about the LB play and their frightening tendency to look absolutely clueless in pass coverage. Hornibrook will hit wide open guys.

                      • I agree with AA's "no" insofar as there is no way OSU is running Wisky off the field. That's sheer fantasy. I disagree with AA's "no" insofar as it suggests Alabama won't make the CFP if OSU wins. OSU needs to beat Wisky by about 90 to have a chance, and, as mentioned, that's poppycock.

                        • Wisconsin's defense is good enough to keep the game close, this won't be a 20+ pt statement win by the Buckeyes to get them in the CFP. They could back in with alot of help but it would take more than a couple upsets.

                          • That's just wrong. The ACC and SEC winners are in. The ACC and SEC losers are out. Alabama is in if Wisconsin loses. Ohio State might get in if TCU upsets Oklahoma. That's it.

                            There are no other games that matter. Ohio State's chances are (a) win and get picked over Alabama (unlikely); or (b) win and get picked over two 2-loss B12 teams, one of which beat you at home (more likely, but not particularly so).

                            The scenarios are really actually very limited: ACC, SEC, Wisky/Alabama, OU/TCU/OSU/Alabama.

                            • There is no scenario where Bama gets in. The SEC is weak this year and the nation has Bama (and to a lesser degree SEC) fatigue. The thought that they would put two SEC teams in is silly. It will never, ever happen. They will find a way to leave Bama out regardless of the CCGs. And that is the right decision.
