Who will start at QB for Ohio State?

The Bet Master · 08-03-11, 10:40 AM

Braxton miller 95%. In the VERY slim possibility it's not him I think it would be Kenny Guiton over Bauserman.

Honestly think they'll throw Guiton to the wolves before playing musical QB's between Miller and Bauserman.

what are the chances ohio state is not allowed to play in a bowl game this year?

Ice House · 08-03-11, 02:27 PM

whoever the Buckeyes start is going to look good in the first couple games so I doubt there will be a need to play musical QB's... I just don't think Bauserman has any upside or play making ability.

No. If Bauserman doesn't start the first game he will never start. And there isn't going to be any throwing to the wolves, the first 2 games are going to be easy. Expect Braxton from day #1 no reason to start a sophomore over the #1 QB recruit.

1%. First of all the assumptions are now that they won't get a bowl game ban, secondly the hearing is the 12th, and typically the infractions come out at minimum 4-6 Weeks later (Seeing how this case is big it might be earlier) so If they come out after the season started they'd be for 2012 not 2011. the 1% I give is the chance they don't win 6 games.

that is good news. I just hope the Buckeyes secondary has some good young talent and hopefully another good young WR.

I've heard Bauserman might actually get the job now around the forums, I still doub it though. And for the secondary it should be fine as long as we don't get the injury bug.

We have young depth at WR and we never got to worry about defense. Time to spread tje field like west virginia or nebraska and utilize our backs and young qb miller, I played against him in seventh grade. He playec in my high schools conference gwoc.

I really like the futures bet Ohio State to win the big 10 at 5-1 odds...

Even if they lose to Nebraska on the road , they can still play them again on neutral turf for the Big 10 championship game.

Nebraska is pretty much a one man show right? That QB Martinez just runs for 300 yards a game?

I think that Ohio State has a great shot at the Big Ten Championship this year. I was considering this myself.

Ice House · 08-05-11, 01:18 PM

yeah everyone has written ohio state off b/c of the recent departure of Tressel and Pryor. The Buckeyes are a football powerhouse they don't rebuild they re-load. Their 3rd stringers could go out and win 80% of the games on the schedule.

I wouldnt be looking for much of a year outof the buckeyes. Vegas has them at -190 to win under 9 games. Vegas doesnt think they are going to be very good. I think they may be looking at 8-4

Ice House · 08-09-11, 07:04 AM

I think they will go undefeated. Soft schedule with only game I am concerned about is @Nebraska.

Vegas would not have the over/under at 9 (-190) on the under if OSU was going to go undefeated. I like your pizzaz though!

You don't think Wisconsin will beat them?

That is one of if not the toughest teams in the BIG10. I think it will be an interesting year, but I think Nebraska and Wisconsin are both losses.

HR Paperstacks · 08-13-11, 05:11 PM

Memorial Stadium in Lincoln, Nebraska is not a fun place for Freshman QB's. Especially in against a tough Bo Pelini Blackshirt defense. Cant wait for that game it will be interesting to see how the season unfolds for OSU. Not really sure what to make of them at this point.

Vin_vermillion · 08-13-11, 10:58 PM

Losses to Nebraska, Wisconsin, at miami fla, and maybe to MSU or PSU. They will beat Michigan once again though

TrapperDapper · 08-14-11, 08:54 AM

Miami should find a way to lose they always do. Only losable games are at Nebraska and against Wisconsin but Osu doesn't lose at home.
