Game Thread tOSU @ Sparty, Nov 8th @ 8pm ET, ABC

[Coqui]

And if that's what we hang our hat on, then OSU is no better than the whores from Ann Arbor and living in the past.

My early prediction is 31-24 OSU. Tough road win and no way we put up 40+ imo but I think we have enough fire power and defensive help to pull it off and get our revenge.

Scout $ - Game Week: Michigan State

A great writeup by Bill Greene. He picks the Bucks (or Urban Meyer rather), 31-24. The Bank has been pretty spot on with his predictions this year.

That Bill Greene sure is a smart guy

11W - Ohio State's Armani Reeves Likely Out For Michigan State

Damn....get well soon, Armani.

What's even more surprising is the 2 players who may fill in. Well, 1 of the 2. One is Cam Burrows who makes sense, but the other is Dame Webb. That's interesting. Would have thought either gareon Conley or erick smith would have been there.

Despite my actual doubts about a positive outcome for the Buckeyes...I think I'm going to dive into some Big Ten Championship tickets.

Eff it, let's roll Bucks!

 

[BUCKYLE]

We're going to win.

Seriously.

Urban Meyer and his staff and teams have failed in every big game they've played in up to this point.

Last time I checked UFM is 2-0 in The Game...I'd say those were "big games".

 

[BUCKYLE]

They're only big games if tOSU loses.

Last time I checked UFM is 2-0 in The Game...I'd say those were "big games".

So were both games against Bucky, the game in East Lansing in 2012, and arguably the game against a ranked Nebraska in 2012.

Michigan State lists nine fifth-year seniors as starters or co-starters. It has only one freshman in that category: co-starter Montae Nicholson at safety.

Ohio State has only one fifth-year senior starter, offensive tackle Darryl Baldwin. The Buckeyes have five starting freshmen, plus kicker Sean Nuernberger.

The experience gap runs even deeper than that. Michigan State has 14 juniors who are at least co-starters. Ohio State has four.

which means next year they're fuckkkkedd....

It's definitely a concern this year though but IMO we got some pretty damn good under classmen. It's not like they're strolling out there big eyed and scared they're use to bigger environments like this and as long as the offensive line holds their own I really don't think it'll matter all that much to be honest.

Experience in Dantonio and Narduzzi's program is a positive for them. No doubt.

There's also something to be said for being young. You don't know how much experience helps, and you don't care.

This team is gonna ball out Saturday. It's a team full of motherfuckers that will choke you over a game of checkers.

Bring it Sparty.

Big to us sure. Nationally? Not so much. Not Ohio State's fault. UM hasn't lived up to their end because they suck. Beating Michigan right now is not a big deal while losing to them is devastating because of THEIR ineptitude.

Last Ohio State regular season win against a top 10 team: TSUN, 2006.

Last Ohio State regular season road win against a top 10 team: Texas, 2006.

Last B1G road win against a top 10 team: Iowa, 1990.

This game is HUGE.
