I wasn't going to bet on any other game but ours. However, when I saw Nebraska getting 11 points, I just had to plop down 1,500 on the shuckers to cover...

didnt seem to bother us last year
The Buckeyes won their way into the Alamo Bowl by beating Michigan soundly. Michigan lost their way into this Bowl.
Here in ACC country, the newly expanded conference is aggressively seeking new Bowl affiliations. The local radio shows were thus on the phone with numerous Bowl Selection Committees this month, chatting up their conference and discussing selection criteria. EVERY BOWL COMMITTEE MEMBER INTERVIEWED, every single one, said that a big part of their criteria is a team that finished on an up beat or on a winning note.
They had a dozen ways to say it, but they all meant the same thing: the team performs better and the fans travel better when you win your way into the game rather than when you lose your way into it.

Adding a little to my bet for Michigan to win, and a little for Nebraska to cover.
My Michigan friend got back from his winter vacation so of course we had to have a big 'ol football game, OSU students vs. Michigan students. My friend got the ball, made a bunch of cuts and ran down the sideline for a long TD (dude ran track in HS, still fast). Of course, couldn't hold back tellin him "Hey, you gotta try out for your team...sure better than any of the starters now..."
He wasn't very fond of that comment.

Cleverly disguised as a responsible adult!
I had to add another $300 on NEB. I have faith in them this year. I would liek to see scUM win for the BigTen but it's only going to be by 10 or less

A lot of good points have been made on the attitudes of the teams/coaches headin into the game. Michigan doesn't want to be there while Nebraska is excited to be there. I got 500 on Nebraska to cover.

Holy Shit! I had forgotten that I had already put 1,500 on Nebraska prior. Oh well, not much difference between 1,500 and 2,000...

Nope, but if you've noticed I never bet on tOSU...I personally take some blame for the 4 losses last season when I was betting on games.
