See OSU pulling off the upset tonight, I'm sure they are sick of hearing how bad they suck, and have a lot to prove. Maybe UT comes out a little flat like Bama did, expecting to play for a bigger prize.

I don't see this being a close game, either Ohio State blows them out, or UT continues to show why Ohio State does suck by destroying them again.

Yeah, consider me one of the "not surprised" ones if OSU pulls it off. Regardless, I hope it turns into a decent game and it isn't over at halftime.

I think OSU keeps it close. I have said 30-27 Texas. I think Texas comes out deflated after being left out of the BIG PARTY!!!

I hope they win. I feel sorry for them since they got blasted in the last 2 BCS bowls.

OSU will come out strong and completely stun Texas... Then Texas will take control slowly and by at least 3 scores, similar to last year's MNC game.

FWIW, they heard it before LSU and USC, too.

I like the Bucks 24-21, though, tonight. However, I never pick against us.

They were sick of it after 41-14, and got their arse kicked by LSU. They were sick of it after 2 national stage embarassments, and got their arse kicked by USC. Now their confidence is shot, their swagger is gone, and it's proven that they're just not good enough.

I don't really think they can. It's nothing against them, just looking at the teams head-to-head, I don't think they have what it takes to win this one. Props to them if they do though.

They had pride against LSU and USC, look how that turned out.

Pride only goes so far in sports.

They lost against LSU more b/c of their mistakes than getting flat out dominated. They outgained LSU easily even after they sort of lost steam after that blocked FG.
