All I know is the public is betting the Ducks and the line has moved to +4 for the Buckeyes.

goducks09;1626846; said:How about head to head competition? UO beat Purdue and USC. OSU lost to them. That is really the only way you can compare these two teams. Stats are misleading, because teams play different styles of football, injuries and other factors come in to play. Oregon and OSU have stats that are not even relevent, like OOC games. Or if you want a stat how about SOS, Oregon 6th, OSU 61st. Do you think BSU's stats are relevent considering they only beat Oregon and the rest of the WAC is full of cup cake teams? Lets face it, Oregon and Ohio St won their conferences, which are both good conferences, so by all accounts it should be a hard fought close game. This game will come down to QB play and which QB makes the right desicions the most times.

Coqui;1626933; said:Don't take my post as an attack. What I was getting at, was, you were thinking your defense isn't important at all because Oregon will just score more. I was merely pointing out that you have yet to face a defense that is capable of stopping teams as well as we can.
Here's where the stats don't lie though. Our offense found their identity after the Purdue game. Look at the rushing yardage after that game. Our offense has shown up now, and our defense has always been there. Oregon will need to make some stops to win this game.
CalvinistBuck;1626956; said:I suppose that the bookmakers have made tOSU a 4-point underdog because they think the Buckeye offense can't keep pace with Oregon's. However, I think it's the Buck's offense that will be the deciding factor.
kc286496;1626991; said:Gambling 101. Vegas lines are all about public perception. This game opened up at Oregon -4. Currently, 58% of the public has taken Oregon and the points. Yet Vegas dropped the line to 3.5. What does that tell you? Vegas wants to cash in on public perception and get even a higher percentage of betters to lay their money on the Ducks. Vegas usually wants games to be 50/50 so they can cash in on the juice and minimize their risk. For them to drop the line when the public is so heavily betting on Oregon means they know something. At least, I HOPE THEY KNOW SOMETHING!
Yep, I'm an elitist prick.TheRob8801;1626962; said:For the sake of this board, I hope the rest of BP isn't as elitist and short-fused as you. (Just kidding, I know they aren't)
I was not aware that wry humor was disallowed on this board. Next time, Bleed S & G, you should just ban me! [/foot_down]
