TENN/OHIO ST

Most intriguing matchup of the weekend, two teams fairly evenly matched IMO. They both play good defense, can run the ball and have QBs who can make the necessary throws. SEC teams over the years have been good to me in the big games and while that shouldn't matter it's hard to turn your back on their success. I was surprised to see a 7.5 point spread, thought more like 3.5 - 4. I'll give the "Horseshoe" the 3 points for being home but giving a strong Tennessee team that is similar in style and talent to their opponent 7.5 points seems like too many to me. I also give Josh Heupel the coaching edge over Ryan Day who if he loses could be on the coaching hot seat if not already. Imagine losing to Michigan again and then getting knocked out the first round of playoffs, he probably didn't sleep much last night.

Home teams have looked good early on but Tennessee is a team that deserves to be here whereas the 3 losing teams thus far all had serious questions about them. Besides I was born in a small town in Tennessee right outside Ft. Campbell KY, I'm on the Vols who could pull off the upset tonight. Let's go Vols!

TENN +7.5, -110

Good luck and Happy and safe Holidays to all!

Welcome back bro

@mrusso

On the same side. I can't figure out the total.

I agree with everything you said but my big concern is the young QB! Has been up and down last month of season.

 Mr Usso 

Day has a hard time making in game adjustments and he coaches not to lose.  His game plan vs Michigan should cost him his job. 

This one feels like a 1 possession game. 

Vols 

Good Luck 

I agree.  I think Ohio St. offensive struggles against Michigan will carry over into this game tonight.  Ending the season the way Ohio St did at home against their biggest rival is troubling to me.  Tennessee's front 4 is nasty.  If the Vols can take care of the football, they can win this game.   

@Lucky Luciano

 Agreed. Should be a very competitive game!

@UnderdogKing

 I feel like the Tennessee defense might have a little attitude tonight, have heard more about Ohio State's defense. Whichever defense plays the best, wins the game, I know that sounds simple but have to get a takeaway or two and help your offense. GL

I'm leaning Tennessee plus the 7 & the over ,just hope Tennessee handles the cold ??  weather 

@mrusso

 Nice write up. If a ML play in order or is that too riaky?

If Tennessee handles the cold weather, I think U can put the 7 points  in your pocket, they may win out Right,  let's call for the out Right win Tennessee 38-24 

Mr Russo thanks for the info. I just moved a substantial amount of money out of my 401k to put on Tennesee. If this doesn't hit I'm ruined.

Vols with the SEC player of the year running the ball, 4th ranked Defense, and better coach…weak ass secondary the biggest flaw and a team that’s not built to play from two td’s behind…..Vols keep it close they win in a close one 

@TheSimSource

 I have to know, why did you do that?

You can’t be for real and are desperate for attention?

The 100 bucks you bet is the most you laid and it feels like your 401 is on the line?

Leaning this way too
