Texas +9.5 at Nebraska (ov/un 46.5) 3:30 ET ESPN/ABC

Gotta root for Texas here, as much as I don't like it.

Any team that's ahead of the Buckeyes in the computers that loses helps negate the Buckeyes' woeful SOS. Any undefeated team losing helps the Buckeyes pick up perhaps a handful of points where individual voters may have that team ahead of Ohio State on their ballot.

I want Nebraska to win personally. I would much rather tOSU play them than boise state or Oregon.

I'd rather them lose and make sure we get in the top 5 of the BCS rankings. Pretty sure we would be anyways at the end of the season, but I'd rather be sure..

I root for the teams playing the teams ranked above us until we're #1 in the BCS standings.

Agreed, I'd rather make sure the Buckeyes get in, then worry about who they might face. Besides, any team with designs on a National Championship should be able to beat whatever team falls to them.

Yep same here..One less scenario. I'd rather not give a shit who OSU plays and them make it to the dance for certain. Lots of games left to be played though

Well it's better then what I have. I have freaking EspnNews...

Check out your non-HD version of ESPN. I have ESPN News on ESPN HD but I'm getting the game in standard def. They've been doing that this season, for reasons unknown.

We're #1 in both polls. If we take care of our own business and stay there the computers will take care of themselves by seasons end. We don't need any help. We need to kick some ass.

I agree, but I'd rather there not be any doubt about it.

If we get into the top 5, the human votes should put us where we need to be. But I'd rather just know for sure.
