Unfortunately, I believe you are correct. OSU just has a limited upside and their ceiling seems to be under the level the top-6 teams play at (aside from maybe Iowa). Kenpom gives OSU a 27% chance to win the game, and that seems overly optimistic ... I don't like OSU's chances unless Maryland is somehow down a few starters.I don't have much hope because se have not been competitive against top B1G teams. In six losses against Maryland, Purdue, TTUN, MSU, and Iowa we have only came within single digits once (a 9 point loss to MSU). It's not like this team has been close to pulling a much needed upset
IDK, man. I bet Maryland in this game. Probably should be more of an 8-point favorite. Just has the feeling of another game where OSU is close at half after a decent performance and then can't find a way to score enough to keep pace in the second half and lose easily.How is the line only 5.5 pts on the road ? I would have expected Maryland to be favored by 9.
Good news: OSU would be highly likely to make the NCAA tournament with a win in this game.good news: osu lost the first game with maryland shooting 65% (11/17) from three and osu shooting 23% (6/26). if both teams regress even a little toward the mean, we'll have a much better shot at keeping the game close if not winning.
bad news: we lost by 14 despite committing only 10 turnovers.
good news: maryland is 351st in forcing turnovers.
bad news: neither jackson nor young may be 100%.
"good" news: we're no worse on the road than we are at home.
bad news: they have cowan and fernando. we don't.
Might as well forfeit.Bad news: per Dan Wallenberg, CJ Jackson is out today.
Ha. I think you are going to be fine this time.Good news: I put a nice sized whammy bet on Maryland to win straight up
Most recent example of my whammy bet powers: I put some coin on Duke the other night just because I hate that rat faced bastard coach and could stand the thought of the suck fest that would follow them destroying UNC. 30 seconds into it Zion blows out his shoe and almost his knee.
I figure OSU needs several shoes to blow out today but stranger shit has happened.
UMD is officially on jinxed upset alert.
bad news: they have cowan and fernando. we don't.
