Indiana +21

[PaperTrail07]

...its how quickly the horse gets moving...its going out the gate LOOK OUT....stud rook getting some carries

Greaser - I like Indy first half. I'm not sure they can sustain over the course of a game. Meyer's teams are notorious slow starters but might pick it up in the 2nd half.

[lonegambler23]

is their QB decent?

I regularly bet huge favorites moneyline but I don't care road or home.

Just this last week I had $100 on USF to beat SJSU moneyline (I posted it was Stanford a few days ago but I was mistaken, it was USF. Bet $100 to win $4. And no I wasn't sweating cuz I never check the score until around the time I think it should be over.

i generally do moneyline parlays with college but never parlay 2 NFL moneyline favorites. I bet those individually.

And I love monster teasers (14 points plus). Great way to build the roll up.

As for the OSU line, I think it's a pretty solid line, right where it needs to be. Those 3 touchdowns will be covered with pick sixes alone. :-)

Ohio State's new OC is the Indiana coach that got fired. He's going to run the score up on those pusssies. Ohio State with an easy cover.

You think Meyer will go along with that with Oklahoma coming up the next week?

[jjgold]

Indiana a top play for many

you are talking like OSU 2nd stringers couldn't beat IU 1st stringers. Which I believe they can. OSU recruits way better talent. Most of OSU 2nd stringers could be 4 year starters at IU.

LOL!!!! Rookie. That's a good one.

And don't worry, I will. Been doing it a long time and it's worked quite well for me thank you.

No worries. And I will be here to congratulate you if it hits.

Certainly can't lay the points. OSU can't help but look a little past IU to the following week with Oklahoma. Plus opening on the road. I would not expect OSU to be crisp. Final 34-17 OSU.

[PaperTrail07]

There is no reason for them not to be with many of the same players returning....new RB getting snaps tho...maybe a fumble? Also the D line for OSU is ocean deep....IND will not be able to run the ball....I expect WR screens and slants...that can only last so long...

Yep. Kevin Wilson has a very good offensive mind. He always had Indiana scoring lot of points. Now he has better athletes to work with at Ohio State.

Ohio State scores at least 50+ points. I don't think IU's offense will be near as good without Wilson there.

I say Ohio State wins 55-24

Papertrail you're good peeps! GL to you too!

[maggiethebestdog]

Leaning OSU here. Opening Thurs night game on ESPN. I don't buy the saving up for Oklahoma theory. Stanford had the same situation against Rice. OSU doesn't have to show a lot to pummel Indiana. Just the basics are good enough to blow them out. I think the 2nd unit will still be able to blow them out IF IT COMES TO THAT. Looking ahead to Oklahoma in week 2 is a good way to lose on the road in Indiana in week 1. Will make my final decision Thurs but that is what I am thinking right now.

[Eddy Munny]

I dunno if I trust Indy's offense. Their defense has been saltier than usual the past couple of years but they lost another RB to the NFL and the offensive line needs a rebuild with the loss of three starters including Dan Feeney who might be starting for the Chargers this year. They also will be missing the continuity of Kevin Wilson's offensive production and will be breaking in a new coordinator.

I wouldn't be shocked if Indiana covers but I don't see that much of an edge. Even if their defense plays respectable, if the offense sputters it's just going to provide Ohio State with too many opportunities to pull away and eventually they'll do just that with their edge in talent alone.

[Ralphie Halves]

Indiana's new OC likes to play much slower than Kevin Wilson did. Factor that in.

[PaperTrail07]

OSU's Running game works.....BLOWOUT avg 6'6 on the line...LETS GO

What an ass. Hope Zeke gets hit by a bus you old prick

Full disclaimer men.....this "football guru" took Jay Ajayi with the 4th pick in our fantasy draft

follow with caution

[BigdaddyQH]

Meyer may take starters out in 2nd half....not to risk injury,for their biggest game of the year vs Oklahoma ,the following week.

The problem with that is that it simply never happens until midway into the 4th quarter with a team up by 21 or more points. By that time, it will be too late for Indiana. I like Indiana + 13 1/2 in the first half at the Southpoint. If I decide to wager on the game, that will be my wager.

You put that in quotes as if I said it. I did not.

If Pouncey stays healthy, Ajayi will be booming

In a year when high producing RB's are really thin, you picked a WR first round who only scored 12 ppg last year. Good move Einstein.

its a PPR League.....if I could pick ALL WR I would

Greens ADP was 9....he slips to 11 and I don't take him

Ajayi ADP 15----you take him 4th and you call me Einstein

BTW.....who was my 2nd pick

I don't care what his ADP is. Look at his numbers when Pouncey was in the game and get back to me.

Was it risky? Yeah. But I go big or go home. Why play the safe in a league for points???

If you wanted a WR, you could have got a much better pick than that. You will be disappointed

No holds barred when you're trolling me in my thread.

Yes,you are right, it may be too late,but one never knows....and when one is trying to beat Vegas,every little angle helps!! Best of luck on your bets.

IU +21 for me! Indiana's QB Lagow had alot of ups-n-down last year, but now its his 2nd year and he looked pretty good at the Manning Passing Academy according to reports. They're pretty deep at WR and OSU's whole secondary from last year went early in the NFL draft. The Indiana defense is experienced and returns 9 of 11 starters

Main thing is...Indiana is hyping this up as their biggest game in school history. I think they'll ride on emotion for a little while atleast. I think BigDaddy might be right about the first half bet...but I took +21. I cashed Clemson big last yr on Ohio State in the playoffs. They're a little overrated imo. 5 road games last year and 3 were within a TD.

Ohio State 34 Indiana 23
