It's early, no higher than 7, it will come down.

OSU homers are huge


The game went to -7.5 briefly in Vegas...............

It appears we will see resistance at that number.

This game is not going lower than -6.5, are you drunk Bigbet or just tired???

You make a good point with the bettors in Ohio, but past history will even keep many of them off this game...........or in fact, taking the other side.

Nah, Fish, neither......I think it will drop below 6.5.

Of course Vegas will inflate their number, their Vegas

for what it is worth a sharp group took +7 yesterday at all shops.......public money may overrun them though and it could close where fish says

I just can't see that happening, sorry.

As stated, I'm calling for -7/-7.5 as the settling numbers at the vast majority of shops.

im a huge ohio state supporter and fan, i typically always fade them in out of conference big games, they always just find ways to choke in the past 10 yrs.

we have a weak offensive line this yr, new wrs and rb, and a qb while mobile is not very accurate. If they can contain pryor, osu is done. im looking for a 41-17 type of game

I respect the opinions of Bigbet and yourself.........thus at this time will change my thoughts on the game settling in at -7/-7.5 to just settling in at a solid -7.

However, at this time, there is no way you can convince me that this game will go lower than 6.5 pts and if one likes the USC side it is my belief you would be foolish to not bet this right now.

Man after reading this board it looks like there is no reason to even play the game. I should just jump on USC - the points because ppl are making it sound like its free money. May load up on this one lol no one is picking buckeyes

My posts do and should not imply who I like in the contest as much as what I believe which way the line will be moving.

However, make no mistake about it, my lean would definetly be towards USC at the -6.5 number and I'm a huge Big Ten supporter.

i was agreeing with you.........i think the game will close 7 -115 and at weak shops(sia) 7 1/2.......if you like OSU + 61/2 is foolish

What's funny is it seems we have gone through this same scenario every year for the past 30 years and the results are usually the same, USC ROLLS.

By the way, Matchbook just said "LET'S MAKE USC -7".

I am a big USC fan but I think this is a sucker bet. I am just going to sit back and enjoy.

cool. public pounding a highly ranked team with a true freshman at qb vs another highly ranked team. team one playing on the road against team 2, who failed to cover a 3 td spread at home.

ohio st plus the points. look it up.

I just caution dont put to much emphasis on either teams 1st game. San Jose is horrible and OSt. was for sure looking ahead against a Navy team that can give anybody problems....I dont Cap either of these teams so i have no opinion but im not sure their is enough known yet about either team to be making a big play on this game..

I honestly dont think they should even play. The way USC beat OSU last year and how OSU has been getting killed everytime they play someone good. USC only has to win by a touchdown and they cover. Ohio State barely beat Navy last week!

!~~~!


By the way, the line has been silent all day in terms of movement.

Currently USC -6.5 to the high side or -7 to the low side.
