Opening Line for tOSU

[Hayseed]

I would like to bet the Exacta.

 

[Branno]

Whatever the line is, even at 24.5, it should be higher.

To quote Jon McClane:  "We're getting butt-f**ked on national television."

Lincoln Riley really has things rolling.

Oklahoma spanked Ohio State and Oklahoma just got beat by Iowa State.....you don't think we can beat Iowa State?

Oklahoma beats Ohio St

Ohio St beats Maryland

Maryland beats Texas

Texas beats Iowa St

Iowa St beats Oklahoma 

You don't think Iowa St can beat Iowa St?

 

[Hayseed]

Ohio St beats Maryland

Maryland beats Texas

Texas beats Iowa St

You don't think Iowa St can beat Iowa St?

Exactly....what are we worried about?

A Hypseman candidate and you still can't beat Iowa State?

Is it sad I'm strongly considering taking tOSU to cover?

Not at all. Interested to see how this thing moves during the week. Really think it could get closer to 30. Hell A&M / Bama was 27.5

 

[BIG ERN]

We lost to them by 59 points last year. 24 points. Hell, Mike Riley is turning this program around you guise!!!  :cheers

I would strongly consider it also.  If this game was later in the season, absolutely.  OSU needs style points if they want to get back into CFP discussion after OK loss.

He shattered two last night sooo!

Only thing left to break for Mike is a hip.

And this is one of those "there is zero way we should win this game" moments that Riley seems to be famous for throughout his career. You watch we'll beat either OSU or Penn State and we'll all be like "WTH?!" 

This isn't the Pac10/12... what you are describing occurred there, where teams are quite frankly pretty flakey and usually have just godawful defenses.  There is far less probability of this occurring in the B1G.  I don't see this team beating tOSU or Penn State.  Just not happening.  If nothing else, tOSU's O-line (and almost all of their athletes) are even better than Wisconsin's.  Thanks to this last game Urban will know that all he has to do is let his big boys pound us on the ground and in the 4th quarter there will be giant, giant holes to run through.  Not that it will go that far.
