The Game, tOSU at ttun, Nov. 27th,12pm FOX (3654 down to 0)

Anyone here oscillate between confidence and rocking back and forth telling yourself it’s gonna be okay?
Yes oddly...

It goes from "They don't even have 1 corner worth a damn how can they slow down all 3 Wrs? This is a 2019 rehash."

To...

"Well if we play like we did vs Corn or PED we could lose this game and then this offense was wasted etc".

Honestly those two games bother me less as more time passes. Corn is a black hole of suck that’s caught every single team in its orbit before losing grip. Buckeyes being able to stray furthest away from said orbit has to count for something. Penn State looks like the 2001 Hurricanes every time they’ve played us since Franklin has taken over despite looking like shit the week before.

Nah it’s just general anxiety for me. 2019 was arguably the most talented team in my lifetime while SCUM was merely ‘okay’ and I was still sweating bullets before the game.

Just the way it goes.

If you're feeling like the 2019 game (and so am I) I think that bodes well. You add the talent discrepancy and ttun once again saying dumb things and yeah I don't see this being anything but a 56-21 type of game.

I’m predicting 100-21. Day is gonna completely unleash the offense and make a statement. They dodged their ass whopping last year, they get twice the pain this year!

Here is one way to look at it:
View attachment 30748

None of this is predictive but in the past 30 years, other than when our coach's name was Cooper, when OSU goes into AA as a single digit favorite they win and cover. When they go in as a double digit favorite they win but don't cover and when they go in as the underdog they lose (except for '01-Woody bless Tressel).

It means nothing for Saturday but it's interesting.
Win, Cover and Over on the table this week. I try to look last 5 gaxes and then last 10 gaxes overall because longer than that you have no faxiliar faces at all involved. So, for Ohio State to have that kind of percentage going for that length of tixe, it's beyond ixpressive. Hence, xy confidence for it continuing this week.
