So Who you got? (Texas vs. OSU - please don't post teaser titles)...

[arthurdawg]

Same thinking for me.

Texas has an edge at QB imo.

Manning had been learning Sarks Offense for a while now and got some experience starting last season.

Sayin has attempted 12 passes in his career and was just named starter.

If the game were later in the year and Sayin pans out then I might pick differently.

But 1st game I think Texas pulls off the Road Win.

This is a tough one... OSU is rebuilding, but has the slight edge in overall roster strength.

I think a bunch of it hinges on turnovers and mistakes and who makes them.

Not sure who will win, but it should be a great game.
Any word on B1GTide? I don't think he has posted since February. Hope he is okay! I know he is ready for football season as we all are.

Texas. If the spread were 10 points I'd be less sure, but it's 3. Texas by a touchdown.

 

[22Musso22]

Where is B1GTide? Would love to know his opinion on this game...

 

[Cruloc]

Texas by 10

 

[teamplayer]

I'll take the home team and say OSU by 10 with a late touchdown to put away a tough contest.

 

[crimsonaudio]

I have a sneaky feeling sexat is going to win fairly handily (14 points or more).

 

[BamaMoon]

I don't really care enough to care who wins except I think a loss for Texas helps our cause a little more come playoff time and the debate about "how many SEC teams should get in."

I'm excited to watch the two young QBs. I figure they'll both be really good in time. There was a reason CNS liked Sayin.

I like Texas for this game. they're more disciplined and more creative on offense than OSU.

OSU has the best offensive player in the country in Jeremiah Smith. OSU by 14

 

[mdb-tpet]

One of these teams can't lose for one weird reason...

 

[spidermayin]

I'll take OSU by 10

Watching SEC This Morning, they gave me some food for thought. Matt Patricia may try to do/expect too much from his guys on D, coming from the NFL. The New OC for OSU has NEVER CALLED PLAYS!!!

I expect procedure, offsides and delays of game galore. Might be the difference. No ability to get momentum if you keep making mistakes.

Agree about Smith. He’s incredible.

If something made the difference for tOSU it would be him doing spectacular things.

He completely took over the playoffs.

Sorry for veering off point, but did we ever get the real story on what happened with the loss of Sayin?

How did a big game like this end up the breakfast game of the week?

I'm going with Texas but not because I'm putting a ton of thought into it.

Basically I trust Arch to be good more than I trust Sayin. And Ohio State is replacing both of their exceptional coordinators and hired less inspiring choices as replacements
