Penn state ml +170

Stop

**Headsterx** · 10-21-23, 08:34 AM

Noooooooooooo!

**stevenash** · 10-21-23, 08:46 AM

He might be right.

I took the points, outside of a squeaker win over ND Ohio State has been playing nobodies like the Running Rabbi's of Yeshiva.

They've yet to be tested like Penn State yet.

PSU +5
And I despise PSU.

Thanks for the pick Johnny. You do best with pregame bets that you have studied relentessly for hours.

Yeah but the same could be said for PSU. They haven't been tested either. At least the Buckeyes have tasted some adversity and lived to tell about it. Both teams are flawed, but I think OSU wins the game on the strength of their skill positions and home field. Don't really have a strong opinion on the spread though.

This has the feel of a FG game.

**Chi_archie** · 10-21-23, 09:08 AM

no thanks, Tom Hanks

He might be right as I picked them, too, though with the pts. But he’s not going win ml and now I’m nervous even with the pts as L10 in the row is coming up.

**Headsterx** · 10-21-23, 09:35 AM

Just saw stats on ESPN with PSU coach losing records for PSU for various situations including on the road against Top 10. Interesting ones are 1-8 v. OSU but 7-2 ATS. I’ll take that for today. 😂

Holy crap, even Action Labs agrees with JV.

Could it be that maybe, just maybe, Johnny's on to something.

By Mike Calabrese
Ohio State backers can hide behind Kyle McCord’s QBR (87.2, 6th) or the Silver Bullets’ improvement in Year 2 under Jim Knowles, but the fact remains that this is a bad matchup for the Buckeyes.

For starters, they have injury issues to three key starters. Cornerback Denzel Burke and wide receiver Emeka Egbuka will both attempt to go in this game but could be limited. Likewise, running back TreVeyon Henderson is listed as questionable.

But even if the Buckeyes were at full strength, they’re going to struggle to consistently move the ball against this Penn State defense. Manny Diaz’s crew is the top-rated unit in both Success Rate and Havoc generated.

They’re far and away the best pass-rushing team in the country, sacking opposing passers 4.5 times per game.

McCord, protected by the nation’s 48th-rated pass-blocking offensive line (PFF), is sure to make a few dicey throws in this game. After all, he’s already thrown seven turnover-worthy passes this season and lost two fumbles in his last four starts.

And when Penn State has the ball, it’s done a masterful job protecting Drew Allar and the football. The Nittany Lions have just three giveaways in six games, and Allar has yet to throw an interception in his entire career.

The offense is content relying upon its offensive line and elite running back room to move the needle. According to Sports Info Solutions, Allar has attempted just 19 passes with at least 15 air yards out of 181 total attempts. This approach from Allar and offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich is deliberate.

Ohio State has been elite at limiting explosive plays, but Penn State is super comfortable dinking and dunking to move the football.

In a low-scoring affair, I’d prefer to back the better defense, better running game and quarterback who has looked unflappable in terms of protecting the football.

Pick: Penn State +164 (Play to +145)

**Eddy Munny** · 10-21-23, 10:17 AM

Burke and Henderson are officially out.

Big day for Curtis Penis

**Headsterx** · 10-21-23, 11:09 AM

It’s all about streaks today. 7 straight losses to OSU and 10 straight for Johnny.🤣🤣🤣

**Headsterx** · 10-21-23, 11:18 AM

Can this PSU QB throw? 😂

**Headsterx** · 10-21-23, 11:19 AM

McCord show them how it’s done!

**Headsterx** · 10-21-23, 11:26 AM

Damn, marched down the field to the red zone and absolutely go sputtering offensively. Settles for FG. Why is McCord challenging #25 DayDay?

**Headsterx** · 10-21-23, 11:33 AM

FOX announcers are horrible. I get PSU is looking bad right now but they get a first down but FOX still said they went 3 and out. 😂

Gus is unlistenable.
Joel Klatt is pretty good.

**goduke** · 10-21-23, 11:42 AM

You might have a shot at this one. I think Ohio state probably wins by a fg but I would say this is a better bet than some of your horrific bets

**Headsterx** · 10-21-23, 11:43 AM

You run two big plays and then you try to pass and get sack. Is it that hard to firgure out what to do? RUN!

**hehfest** · 10-21-23, 11:52 AM

JV - Your boy is 0-9 vs. T10 on the road and 1-13 vs. T10 opponents. Did you know this before?

**krk1030** · 10-21-23, 12:03 PM

If they would just run the ball they will win but they insist on letting Allard miss throw after throw.

**Headsterx** · 10-21-23, 12:23 PM

Scoop and scores by Penn State! But wait the curse of Johnny strikes again… penalty wiped it out!!

**BradytheK9** · 10-21-23, 12:27 PM

What's best way to wager some betpoints to try & win enough to enter contest?

Ofc he does but streaks and trends don’t mean anything to him. Don’t forget that he broke the Ravens preseason winning streak. 🤣

Check out sports betting Threads for particular sport like NFL, and you should see any available for Week 7

Agree on both counts.

Ryan Day is one miserable SOB...always angry, yelling and salty. I'm not sure I have ever once seen the guy smile.

**The_Mr-B_** · 10-21-23, 12:35 PM

Over FSU

**Headsterx** · 10-21-23, 12:36 PM

Now 0-6 on 3rd down. Buckeyes defense!

**Headsterx** · 10-21-23, 12:49 PM

Another 3rd down for Penn St… 0-7
😂

**Booya711** · 10-21-23, 12:54 PM
