Ohio state -9 to a very fast and very good Miami team.. what does everyone think??

I smell a teaser coming with this game.. This game will be decided by less than a TD, IF OSU wins.. I could see OSU winning a close game, but I could also see Miami actually blowing OSU out..

OSU moneyline

I think Miami's defense will cause problems for pryor, and I think their offense is maybe a little to fast for the defense. It should be a good game though. I'm taking Miami +9

**MendozaLine** · 09-07-10, 11:31 PM

Miami is clearly the play.

**runnershane14** · 09-07-10, 11:39 PM

actually i believe ohio state is the play based on that line

**Buckeyefan** · 09-08-10, 12:52 AM

I went to the game Thursday and Miami's offense won't be to fast for the defense, they can flat out run. As for the line I think it's to many points to give up it will be closer than the line predicts.

If Miami is getting 9 I think I would have to take that all day. I think OSU probably wins but I see it being a very close game. Definitely less than a touchdown either way.

why is miami clearly the play? i am from miami and a big canes fan.. but honestly this line i think is exactly where vegas wants it to be.. the fact that everyone is in here saying Miami clearly the play is what vegas wants you to think.. Public is pounding Miami and it's down to +9 at most places.. i liked the game at +10 but i think it might get down to +7.5 or maybe even 7 if it keeps up like this.. i think ohio wins 30 to 21

but i hope i am wrong.. i will probably make a small play on miami +10 as a fan.. but there are much better games on the board this weekend..

Some early leans everyone should consider
-Miss st +3
-Tenn +13.5
-Army-2
-South Carolina -2
-Oklahoma -8.5
-Iowa St +14
-UCLA +7

I like the Buckeyes here. I agree with Kmarino in that the books want you on Mia +9. People are not giving Pryor his due respect. He is much improved compared to this time last season. What will be interesting is how Harris handle the pressure OSU will bring. He was terrible under pressure last season throwing 17ints. I think it's a close game in the first half with the Buckeyes forcing Harris into mistakes in the second half which will be the difference. I think OSU wins by at least 10 or more here. Mia is getting too much respect here. They're not that good. They're a 8-9 win team this season watch.

miami is making strides and is going in the right direction.. but i agree i think they are a season or two off before the are really the "U" again.. what is nice is MIami will always have Cache and get the recruits they need from the state.. so talent is usually never a factor

Yeah I do think Mia is on the rise but I just don't see them being a serious title contender this season & it's always nice when you have the talent pool of Fla in your backyard.

**Uncle Harv** · 09-08-10, 02:17 PM

If the Canes take care of the football they cover the +9 and possibly win. Simple as that. And dont think for one second that they arent seeking revenge after that phantom pass interference call went against them to give OSU the title 8 yrs ago.

**agharah1** · 09-08-10, 03:12 PM

I for one think Pryor is going to have to make more plays with his arm because Miami has the athleticism on defense to contain him. If they force him to throw more, he could morph back into Jamarcus Pryor.

**bacon22** · 09-08-10, 03:32 PM

I can't wait. This weekend is full of good games.

I can't wait for TP to stiff arm a Miami CB to the turf in the shoe this weekend like in the rose bowl.

It's a close win for the buckeyes or it's a blowout for the buckeyes I can't see Harris coming into the Shoe and not having a few TO in this one with one fast and physical DEF. 100,000+ plus fans can he quiet them I think not.

OSU 31 Miami 17

**mangina11** · 09-08-10, 04:01 PM

Miami will have trouble as soon as they lose momentum. They will be out coached is what it comes down to. They have all the athleticism in the world, but home field for the bukeyes is huggeee in this game. Shannon has showed some questionable decisions, especially in close games on the road...I think OSU wins by 13, but im praying that Im wrong!!! come on canes!!!

**Buckeye** · 09-08-10, 04:10 PM

Although there is sentiment that OSU received a phantom interference call in the national Championship game in 2002, there was also a no call im Miami's favor in the late 4th Qtr that was a pass interference against the same OSU WR Chris Gamble. If the refs make that call the game probably would have never made it to OT.

**Husker36** · 09-08-10, 04:23 PM

Miami was a young talented team last year that struggled on the road. Has Harris and the rest of the Canes matured enough to handle a hostile Ohio State crowd?? I guess we will find out Saturday.....
