re: Seems a given for many that Ohio St is going to win

OSU by double digits, sparty scores late to make it look closer than it was. I'm thinking something like 31-20.

OSU got a reality check last saturday. I don't think Cook is nearly the playmaker that Gardner is and I don't think they have a TE that can hurt us. Their rushing attack is based on physicality and not speed. Michigan got their yards on the edges last week, MSU won't get that. Teams really dont run up the middle on OSU, interior line is too good. I am worried about screens and fake punts/FGs.

On the other side of the ball i think it's going to be a hell of a smash mouth rushing contest. They have a great corner and a very good one, I don't see many (if any) passes over 20 yards. I think Hyde wears them down in the end and reels off 8 yards a carry when it's all over. Braxton getting injured is a concern because they hit hard, need to limit his designed runs I think...we have the backs to do it. Braxton 200 yards passing 1 TD 100 yards rushing 1td, Hyde 175 yards 2TDs and a FG to hit 31.

Boom roasted
