    The Sharp Bettor Is On Arkansas Tonight

    Why??

    Big Ten looks bad
    Ohio St has some turmoil which will hurt
    Ark much better QB
    Ark much tougher Schedule

    Who is the play?

    I like OSU in this game, mainly because of their defense. The under also looks good for this match up.

    Hope you are correct, JJ

    Playing the SEC vs Big Ten angle here...

    Alabama rolling the Spartans
    Miss. State hanging half a hundred on Michigan
    Hopefully, the Hogs can get it done against the Buckeyes...

    After OHIO STATE defeats ARK, the BIG TEN will be 3-5 in bowl games and the SEC 3-4..........meanwhile the BIG TEN is being ousted by the media at a 13-1 clip over the SEC, a conferecne that could finish 3-7 in bowl games very easily or 4-6.

    Of course, the SEC could run the table from here also, and finish at 7-3.

    OSU hasn't beat anyone this year other than a 12 point win at home vs the Canes and a 3 point win at Iowa.......

    Ark lost to bama(#1 team at the time) at home by 4 points, won by 21 at South Carolina, won by a TD a Miss St., and beat LSU by 8 at home..

    Ark +3 looks decent

    I think OSU is one of the biggest overrated teams this year. Arkansas has the better QB in Mallet, played a way tougher schedule I mean who did OSU beat this yr? Miami? They are crap! Iowa is like the previous poster said is their only decent win. With all the controversies surrounding them, even if I liked OSU, I wouldn't touch em with a 10 foot pole.

    Ark should of beat auburn that game they let the game slip away after being up...but then again auburn shouldve been beat about 5 times this year. I don't think usually you can base your betting what happens in the previous bowl games. But I think we have learned everything we need to know. I think Ark rolls and Oregon def the better bet because pac -10 has gotten absoluely no respect this year.

    All I'll say is OSU's pass defense shuts Mallet down. You think Mallet passes for over 300 yards?? Not a chance in hell. Have fun betting on a Michigan QB. Hopefully this thread is a trend of the public view so I can pick up OSU at -2.5

    the only thing that scares me backing Ark tonight is Mallet's ability to lay an egg, which he's done in a big game more than once.

    How the hell can you put Michigan and Michigan State in the same discussion as Ohio State????

    This game tonight has NOTHING to do with SEC vs. Big Ten this bowl season and you cannot compare Arkansas to Alabama (I dont care what the rankings say, Alabama is the better team) or Michigan State to Ohio State (Ohio State is far superior, obviously.

    What happened against Alabama wasn't just a bad day for Michigan State, they had blowout written all over it.

    That being said, I think Ohio State is the play.

    Yes, obviously I'm biased. That's why I didn't offer anything more than the fact that I think OSU's pass defense stops Mallett.

    Before everything that has happened came about I was sold that this game was a lock for Arkansas. I still think they are the better team but you have to admit that between the potential suspensions looming and the up in the air decisions of players leaving early and the absolute pathetic performance of the Big 10 in the bowls thus far you would think this would be a slam dunk for Arkansas.

    You never like to think about it being posible and certainly would hope it doesn't play a factor but sometimes these things I mentioned work to the disadvantage of the team (Arkansas) not affected by it all. Do they become over confident and expect a win rather than staying focused and want a win?

    I still like Arkansas but I'm not as confident as I should be and if I play this game at all it will be for small action and more than likely will be on the UNDER.

    I'm pretty sure Petrino will lose the game for Arkansas. I wouldn't bet on Arkansas not even with free money.

    Huge mismatch in coaching stuff on this game.

    and you don't have to pick a side. this is why so many of these guys are losers, they feel the need to pick a winner on every ******* game. sure I like Arkansas myself, but I doubt it's gonna be enough to make a wager on them. some of these clowns are making 40-50 plays a week trying to pick winners and wondering why they always go bust..it's ok to sit back enjoy the game and keep your money safe in your acct. The safest way to double your money is to fold it in half.
