The-Ozone Staff Picks: Cincinnati at Ohio State

Everybody here correctly picked Ohio State to defeat Florida Atlantic last week, and if you know anything about my predicting abilities, I’m gonna make note of every single one that I get right.

The closest pick, however, came from Tom Orr, who went with 45-17, but we don’t have time to continue talking about last week’s game. We have to move on to Cincinnati.

Do you think the Buckeyes or Ryan Day are still talking about Tom’s pick? Of course not. They have moved on and so are we.

Ohio State is currently a 16-point favorite with an over/under of 53, which means Vegas is looking at a score of around 34-18 or 35-17, something like that.

Will our picks mirror that?

I am not in the “freaking out about the Buckeye offense” boat. The offense was amazing early on. With that said, I think the Buckeyes made a business decision on Saturday. You get inexperienced players the repetitions they needed while putting them in situations where they are least likely to get hurt. Especially with Justin Fields, who I do not think is as bad at the read option as he showed on Saturday. I think he was told to keep it…I hope that is the case. The offense will show its true potential on Saturday.

Defensively, the Buckeyes looked more Silver Bullet-y than we have seen them in a while. They played fast, aggressive, and with an attitude. With more depth back at DE, and Cornell moving back inside, the defensive line will be a dominant force and rack up at least 5 sacks on the day. I also predict a Shaun Wade interception and a Demario McCall return touchdown.

Ohio State 41, Northern Kentucky 17

Three reasons Cinci won't win;
1. Can't match the speed of our WR's
2. Can't match our linemen
3. I like Jamison Black Barrel

1. Jameson Black is my favorite whisky among whiskies I can afford.
2. Your previous avatar was better (you know which one)

Over/Under on ABC announcers mention the UC coaching ties to OSU storyline:

15 1/2

Put me down for the over, especially if it stays close into the second half

The only positive aspect of playing in-state schools instead of a solid P5 ooc game is watching the toxic mix of jealousy, anger, butthurt bitterness and delusions of their fanbases leading up to the games

You're forgetting the revenue that some lucky bar is going to get when the in-state school's fans figure out how OMGAMAZING it is to TAKE OVER A COLUMBUS BAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Juggalos are throwing a fit over an ice cream flavor. Amd once again, this isn't some message board warriors. It's the official university account.

This is asinine, but that Bearcat flavor does sound delicious.

What I take from the article if another "professional" non-celebrity tabloid write uses the phrase claps back in a article I'm going to punch them in the throat...

I'm going with the Bucks 38-24, with the halftime score being 24-10, Bucks.

UC fans will never take over a Columbus bar. They can’t afford it. Bars in Columbus don’t serve Faygo.

 

[Telekinesis]

I hate these little punks almost as much as TSUN. They’re down the street and still travel worse than Toronto hockey fans to Columbus, yet somehow talk more trash than all of them combined.

Go Bucks. Crush these juggalos and the axe body spray they rode in on.
