Apparently people who put their money where their mouth is disagree with you, as evidenced by the line.

Vegas is not in the prediction business. They're in the money-making business. Lines are set to try to draw the most action and maximize income, which is why they move based on wagering.

Working on the passing game pretty much guarantees to make the score closer than it should be.

They need to work on the running game. The passing game will naturally open up.

True. But the running game is fine. We just didn't run the ball much on OK. The passing game is what needs work imo.

Yeah I purposely didn't refer to Vegas.

The passing game will never work that way. Every time they line up in a passing set, the D will just drop eight because they know JT won't beat them with his arm, and he's nowhere near the aggressive runner he used to be. Pound the rock. Keep pounding the rock. When the safeties come up, hit them over the top on play action.

Just like to see something positive come out of this game. I`m sure the players and coaches will be glad to get back on the field. I can`t remember a rougher week for tOSU football in a long time.

We should definitely run the ball as you are saying. No disagreement here my friend. It is the key to winning the game. All I'm saying is that the passing game needs more work than our running game. I think our running game is solid. GO Bucks!

O-H!

How come these games never start on time anymore? When it say 4:30 PM I expect the damn game to start at 4:30PM
