The over and under has been good to me this season, but I have no feel for this one.

Actually, I think it was the LaTech/UH game that the 'Mudcapper' was going off on me for preaching restraint.  So, either way, BigDaddyHPD, you're gonna get blamed for my predicitons.

First time posting, but read this all the time...Some times wish i didnt, but  like the in-put. 
 
I like Ohio State A lot...They handled everyone on there schedule and Michigan should have never even covered the spread in the last game they played, the game wasnt as close as score shows...
 
It doesnt look like Florida State covers as a favorite in the past, but they have not been a dog all year.
 
Bigdaddy always seems to do well...What do you think Bigdaddy-----looking at -7.5 now...

ON the EDGE....dont take the -7.5 unless you want fla gators, itll drop to 7 for a while tomorrow but may go back up to -7.5 in the couple hours pregame time. im not God's gift to handicapping but i know most of the time what will happen to the lines because i watch them all the time(just ask wifey)
if you like fla, and theres lots of reasons, get it now or if you dont then wait until game time, if it goes to 7 tomorrow itll prolly go back up to 7.5 near the end  bc theres lots of people waiting for it to get there and Ost money will flood in forcing a back and forth 7/7.5 scenario.
if you like OHst and theres lots of reasons, wait till it gets to 7 and if you cant wait for goodness sake buy it to 7, if it goes to 7 buy it to 6.5(i only do this with 3 and 7)
  Hey Maui Warrior, Uhill started playing sandbox nicely recently. he also went 3/4 on the sides this weekend ,at least prediction wise, so he is worth reading as long as there is a plays well with others check on his report card. Good Luck on your pick tomorrow

Gonna make a bet at least 5 mins. before kickoff.. This one's by far the toughest for me this season (BCS championship game! what do you expect!..heh). Feeling: Florida will have its momentum and its D will be in control for the first half, then 2nd half will/should belong to the Buckeyes, everything will be intact, they'll know Florida's scheme and Buckeyes should get rolling... I don't know if its just my feeling or I just trust Troy Smith too much..heh . Haven't got the line from my bookie yet but if its 6 - 7, I'm rolling w/ Ohio St., but if its 7.5 - 8.5 (unreal!), then I'll make like MC Hammer & not touch this.. . Anyways best of luck to all & enjoy the game!

If you guys can still remember last season when I took the Longhorns to beat USC SU. I did not choose them cause I am a Longhorn fan, but because the Longhorns had less pressure on them to win. A lot of stars on the Ohio St. team has a lot riding on this game and it can take a lot out from a young players standpoint.

Of course you cannot compare the type of players on Texas versus what Florida has to offer Ohio St., but you cannot simply ignore them.

Ohio St made me some this season. Very solid team all around, but I took Michigan to cover against them and won.

Ohio St. vs Florida might be a better matchup than most people think. It is very hard for me to go against Ohio St. but I have a slight feeling that Florida might win.

Aloha and good luck to whatever you guys choose, pending on how I do this bowl game season i may just enjoy the game minus a wager.


Well said...add to that the fact that Florida has faced 7 top 25 defenses this year and Ohio st has not = that Florida will be prepared for the worst. Ohio St's toughest games all year (rank wise) were against Penn St. and Michigan. Although Penn st. won their bowl game (against a horrid Tennessee team) Michigan got blown-out by USC. I just don't think Ohio St. has played enough tough teams or has the all around athletes that Florida has. That being said "the game minus the wager" seems like a good call.

Good luck to those jumping through the fire....FLORIDA is the call.

Let me analyse this year bowl games , Big ten vs SEC ,, Pen St 20 - Tenn 10, Big ten Win
Wisconsin 17-  Arkansas 14..   Big Ten even though struggles this year in bowl games manage to beat the top 2 SEC Teams.. So this tells me one thing about this game.. Ohio St is clearly the best Big Ten Team, They will win and Cover this game OHIO St + Under .. Florida Kicking game Stink..

OK enough said this is a mismatch for the ages all u fans can say what you want but OHIO STATE is better in every facet of the game. Only way Forida wins as  I see it is it in a turn over fest and don't tell me this going to be a Michigan game again only time they did turn it over. They should of covered there in spite. Leak is weak   Meyer is weak and probably  should go with TBOW my man but he is  a year or two away this is a rout as i ever seen in a BCS  champion game don't be fooled       Ginn

OHIO STATE HUGE PLAY


and look my last 11 post u think im a fool  gl DrJ and Big Daddy and where are u Scorpio chime in

A bunch of the online houses have had OSU at -7, all the time.  I've noticed the majority putting up -7.5 numbers the last two days.  I see the number dropping to -8, but I've already punched in at +7.5.
 
Florida wins this year have been all about turn-overs.  You'd think that a top kicker in 2005 would get it together by game time....wouldn't that be a neat trick.

The more posts you make, the higher your rank.  In my case, anyway, it doesn't mean a whole hell of a lot.
