Comparisons for pt spread

[buckeyeabroad]

Location = -5 pts scUM
Olines (worth 7 max) = even. Long is awesome. Bucks better all around and faster.
QB (7 max) = even. Henne 100% would be at least -2.
RBs (5 max) = +1 OSU. Hart 100% prob. -1 or -2. We're much deeper. Beanie capable of an 'even' with Hart too.
Receivers (5 max) = +1 OSU. Before you blow a gasket scUM fans, the only heart on your O besides Michael is Chad. MM just doesn't show up every play. He's too easily discouraged. His behavior hurts your team too. Arrington and other support are good. That is all. The OSU WRs are fast, run good routes, and hang onto the ball. Like RBs, we're very deep here. But +1 is really pretty close.
D-lines (7 max) = even. Would have been +1-2 before Illinois.
Backers (7 max) = +2 OSU
Corners (5 max) = +1 OSU
Safeties (5 max) = +1 OSU
Punting (worth 3 max) = +1 OSU
Punt returns (worth 3 max) = even
Kickoffs (worth 3 max) = -1 scUM. We cover for sh!t. Actually so do you.
Kick returns (worth 3 max) = even. we both suck at this. Watch for some tricks.
Coaching, gameplanning/prep. (worth 10 max) = +2 OSU. Historical evidence.
Coaching, game adjustments (worth 10 max) = +1 OSU. Would have been more before Illinois.
Intangibles (7 max) =-1 scUM. Lllloyd leaves, H&H&Long, last chance

Total -7 to scUM / +10 OSU.
OSU to win by 3 pts

I'll take the Buckeyes and give you them +3.

I never bet on The Game. Actually, I never bet on OSU (period!)

I bet on O$U whenever Michigan is favored. Today not so much.

I never bet on the Buckeyes either. True story. A buddy tells me Maurice Clarett will rush for one hundred yards against Texas Tech. This kid Maurice Clarett had never even played a down of college ball plus I had read that the O-line was a weakness. I say "No way." He says bet me. I say "Ok, one dollar," and the bet is made. Needless to say, I lost and had to pay up. I paid him $1.75, one penny for every yard Mo gained. Never even had the thought of betting anything Buckeye since.

I bet on Buckeye games all the time(except the bowl games). Not always for them either. It's pretty much a rule of mine is someone is a 40 point or more dog, I'm taking them.
