haha
The crowd will be interesting.....
I (think) I'm going against you on the crowd - EVERY Texas fan hates OSU fans - because they were abused the last game in Columbus. Many still talk about it.
>> plus many skipped the ASU game (getting expensive) - gearing up for this one
How many OSU fans think Texas has a shot to win? - a ton of flights were delayed - I know several that are gonna miss it (early morning flights delayed till tonite late) < pisser there ..... are some OSU fans 'waiting' for the title game - figuring this one is a gimme?
BIG PICTURE: will Ohio State continue to play like they have been (ie like LSU 2019)? or will the moment be too big for Howard/Day? ......will Texas rise up and play to the level of their opponent yet again?
*one thing is an extreme probability - Texas should not be able to run here - AT ALL - so most likely this will be the Quinn Ewers show
If live betting - can OSU get pressure rushing only FOUR? - if so game over ...... if not, and they have to blitz - Ewers destroys blitzing teams
* problem? - OSU's DL is playing at a historically good level - vs the Ducks they disrupted 90% of rushing attempts - two DE's are ridiculous
GTTH - Horns/Sark figure out a few things early - stay close for awhile, and/or get out to an early lead. OSU pulls way 2H - I don't see how Texas keeps pace here. Probably a late arriving crowd (6:30p start) - which team can get a strong start will be huge. IF it's OSU, Texas could be in serious trouble.
$$ - I'll probably wait to see if I can get Texas at a juiced 7 - bet it small - play OSU live/2H
