ARKANSAS vs. OHIO STATE
Sugar Bowl ... 8:30 Eastern
600% OHIO ST -3 over Arkansas
Everyone's aware of the 0-9 record Ohio St has versus
SEC teams in bowl games. Coach Tressel has 3 of those losses.
The key here is, his Buckeyes are playing an SEC team in a bowl game tonight
in a game that is not for the National Title.
Ohio St brings to the bowls the best all around team on both
offense and defense. They are the best defensive team in the country
as they give up only 94 yds/game on the ground and only
156 yds thru the air.
On offense, they average 220 yds/game on the ground
and 229 yds/game thru the air.
They are the only bowl team to have this type of balance
on both sides of the ball.
The 5 key players that earned suspensions have until next year to
concern themselves with that issue. If anything, it probably served
to keep the rest of the players in check during their final bowl preparation.
The Buckeyes have the chance tonight to give the
Big 10 Conference a well needed victory, and if they
have the opportunity to run it up, they will.
PREDICTION:
OHIO ST 38 - ARKANSAS 20
I know what you are saying...but, i have been following a trend as stupid as it may seem and i know doubt jinxed myself now but when a team plays in all white like VA Tech did last night the all white team will not cover. The one exception this year was Florida which a 80 yard INT with around a min to go gave FLA the cover. Last night when VA Tech came out in all white my money went to Stanford. Like I said I'm sure I just killed myself. Last year it was perfect. I'm just saying
