OU was getting 10. I remember getting them earlier that week at +11 for one of the biggest bets of my life.

The whole thing sucks. Sorry to say, but the Fiesta Bowl is in for a huge letdown. From all early accounts, both the Texas fans and Ohio State fans are not planning on traveling well. Who the hell wants to go watch a Texas team that should be playing in the National Championship? And the Ohio State fans have been to that bowl like 4 outta 5 years I think? I've got a few Buckeye buddies who say that NO Buckeye fans are planning on going (slight exageration). Maybe all the bowls will be going through this though w/ our current economic situation?

ohio st has a better shot of beating texas than bama..

the matchups look good to me. their are tie-ins so it's not as if they have much of a choice for these games.

Since there was no arguement against it, I bet it. USC -3/Bama -3 1/2/Tex -3/Okla +10 $6 to win $12
