    UCF v Ohio State -17 in Columbus?

    UCF's 56-14 win over Akron is a concern, but given that the game is in the 'shoe and Urban Meyer tends to annihilate inferior opponents, I feel safe that the buckeyes continue their dominance making their second loud statement.

    Wait until the line moves up to 18 and take UCF, since they are banned from postseason this is pretty much their super bowl, so they are going to throw everything at this game, and while they probably won't win they are still the best team in Conference USA and should be able to keep it close for a half, so i'd take UCF first half and the points

    UCF is a good football with good coaching, I would not count them out of this game. I can honestly see UCF pulling the upset but I would not bet on it.

    Ohio st used to have trouble covering huge spreads, but now that they have a new coach this might be a bad game to bet on either way. Too many question marks.

    couldn't have agreed more. I will be in the shoe this saturday and it will be rocking. That first quarter speed bum against Miami will be an afterthought. 52-17 sounds almost spot on.

    Great points on both side of the argument. While this game could be close in the first half, I gotta think Urban Meyer flexes his coaching muscles in the second half en route to a 21-28 point victory.

    For what its worth UCF is appealing their bowl ban so there is still some uncertainty regarding that situation. UCF has a lot of good athletes and I could see them hanging around in this one as long as they take care of the football.

    biggest advantage a bettor has is choosing the games he doesn't bet. This is one of those games. Pass.

    Urban wants to recruit in Florida - he knows he needs Florida speed to do what he wants to do in the tiny 12. UCF, while not a major player, could pull some talent that OSU wants. Urban also trying to instill an attitude at OSU. I think OSU tries to throttle UCF here.

    UCF is an excellent team and are MUCH improved from Last Season. I will not be on this game and there are significantly better opportunities on the board.

    OSU can struggle in their second game of the season, demonstrated the last few years.

    UCF is much better than Miami of Ohio, bucks were 24.5 there and struggled 1st quarter...if they do that here, it wont go as easy the next 3 quarters.

    Braxton looked only OK to me. Honestly, @ 15' I'd like OSU, 18 or more maybeye UCF. Right now its a no play that I am watching. Gut tells me wise guys are going to lower the line to squeeze some more OSU backers out.
