USC constantly moved the ball on them, and had wide open receivers all night. Problem for them was, their quarterback cant handle making play changes at the line to counter simple blitz schemes, their running backs don't block, and their offensive line quit. Ohio State actually made USC's defense look great in the second half, that's how bad they are. Yes, I know they were running conservative plays to run clock and minimize mistakes with a lead, but still, they had THREE first downs the whole second half, no points, 109 yards, and gave USC multiple chances to get back into the game. And if butterfingers didn't keep turning over the ball in the OSU red zone, that game would have gone down to the wire. All we saw in the Cotton Bowl was two mediocre and overrated teams showing us that neither deserved to be in the so called CFB "playoff".
If books allowed actual real money bets using your lines, they'd be broke in a month.
