I didn't think the spread would be that high against NW.

Would you even consider taking the points? Giving them 7 for the home field advantage and another 3 for a night game, we still ought to beat them by 2 TDs - especially with their QB dinged up and OSU coming off a bye week.
It's time we took somebody apart.

Home field is usually 3 points, not 7. Plus, we play "lights out" at night (pun intended), so I'd think that would at least negate the 3 points they get for home field. And after the way the just got their asses handed to them by Minnesota, there's no reason why we shouldn't beat them by 20+.

11.5 seems right. We won by 20 last year, and by 11 two years ago in that night game there. I think the game will resemble the Cincy game this year, and the NW game 2 years ago. It will be interesting seeing a top 10 passing offense go against a top 10 passing defense. NWs passing defense is so horrible...I wonder how much we will throw the ball. I think will score between 25-35 and they'll score between 6-16. So worst case 25-16...best case 35-6. Right now I lean towards 31-9 because I think the offense should be hungry enough to score 30 points.

We should win handily. Of course for OSU, winning handily means not kicking a last-second FG or the other team having the ball with a chance to score and win....

11.5? Heck that's only 4 field goals for Nuge ... easy money!
