    But seems like a lot of split views so maybe the best bet is to just avoid the game.

    OSU has a better offense and defense and it's not even close. NW isnt even on par with Wisconsin. OSU rolls

    # up to -7

    Cats soft on D. Though get back impressive RB and Punt returner Venrik Mark. OSU was able to stack the line against Wisky. Not sure if they can do the same against a team like NW that is more two dimensional.

    Northwestern has been owned by Buckeyes, but I think this is one of the first times in ages they've had a true fighting chance.

    NW on impressive spread run, undefeated and at home getting a TD? NW averages 40 points and they have weapons on O. As mentioned, I think this kid Mark will give NW a spark. Not that they need one against a team that has pretty much kicked their ass of late. Add that you have Two Qbs in case one get's roughed up adds safety. Yes, both teams have that luxury.

    I'm thinking of biting on Cats at anything over 7.

    Wouldn't be that shocked if Cats pulled the upset @ home under the lights. Thinking OSU wins this by only 3-4.

    David vs Goliath type game. David has a better sling shot this year and will be confident. Buckeyes better not take these guys lightly. gl

    Was pretty easy to see it was going to move to a key number - I took NW +7 for half of my bet. Watching the line, if it gets over 7 will make it a full 3% bet.

    If Ohio state wants to be taken seriously they need to beat teams like this by 3 TDs. Not saying they will. With so many teams undefeated and the race for the NCG being so close Ohio state does not need to play a close game here.

    I agree. Ohio State needs style points. That schedule they play is way too easy.

    Disagree completely. First off Northwestern is a legitimate top 15-20 team I don't see how you can expect them to go on the road at night and win by 21. I'm a buckeye fan, obviously the schedule is weaker than the others, so no matter what we aren't getting in over an undefeated PAC team or FSU/Clemson/Miami. Just have to go 13-0 and hope they lose. Style points really aren't going to come into play.

    Think what you want, but an outsider perspective is "who is north western?" Kind of a bad situation for Ohio state.

    You gotta ask yourself WWBD?

    What would Bama do?

    Hard to go against a guy that that hasn't lost a game as Ohio States head coach. 17-0! I'm very confident that Ohio State wins here.....

    What has Bama done? If they weren't perceived as the #1 team before the season they wouldn't be right now. Bama wouldn't beat Northwestern by 21. Why exactly do you think style points will matter? What hope does OSU have of getting by an undefeated Oregon, Stanford, Washington, Clemson, Miami, or Florida State? Pretty much none. But if those teams were to lose a game they have no shot a all of getting past an undefeated OSU. That's my point. And everyone who is actually a decent fan of college football and the voters know that Northwestern is a solid team.

    They have show that its not your record that is the deciding factor in college football. LSU got in with 2 losses.

    Oregon has ran the same high powered offense for years. They have just swapped names on jerseys. We seen them against auburn and against LSU... Not impressed. I'm sure they would blow out northwestern.



    It's about recruiting. I'm not sure where northwestern falls out in recruiting rankings, but they are probably not as high as Ohio state. So if the coaching is equal Ohio state should win by a good margin.

    Recruiting is huge but it doesn't really guarantee success all the time. Anyways to your LSU argument they got in because all the top teams had 2 losses. They didnt pick them over a power team with one loss. That was a crazy year, Ohio State got in after losing to Illinois at home of all teams. http://www.collegefootballpoll.com/2...chive_bcs.html

    There is almost no mathematically way possible that an undefeated OSU gets jumped by a one loss team unless all the voters team up and purpously vote them as the #20 team to offset the computers.

    Urban understands the seriousness of this game even if you don't. U have to curb stomp teams if you have a shitty schedule. When 2 good teams play you may try to run the clock out if you have a slight lead mid way through the 4th. Not this game. It is gonna be all out score fest till the last minute even till the last :30 of the game.

    What was the score of that NCG game in 2007? Ohio state and Oregon have proved time and time again that they are never what they appear to be, but at least they appear to be good. When they stop appearing to be good then it's officially over. Urban gets that.

    What does the score of the game in 2007 have to do with anything? I'm just talking about how they would get into the game and how blowing teams out wouldn't matter. Urban gets it yet he went ultra conservative last week Vs Wisconsin in the 2nd half. He just wants to win the game.

    Weather is supposed to be dreadful, and rumors that Northwestern let their grass grow extremely long to slow down OSU, but they may cut it today. Game is going to be a mudfest most likely.
