neither of my favorite teams lol...

Ohio St:
played at a diff level in 1h of gm vs Tenn, in freezing cold at home (covered)
then did it again v Oregon in Rose Bowl perfect conditions, holding off 2h challenge (covered/over)
then was often out-muscled vs Texas, yet had a 75 yd screen-pass TD last play of 1h, and a 90 yd scoop/score to end the game (and covered/under) (undeservingly)

NDame:
beat an overmatched Indiana team in freezing weather at home, mainly on a 90 yd run, and Indiana turnovers (covered/under)
then beat a Ga team w/o their season-long starting QB, 23-10 (covered/under)
then got by Penn St when their QB ran left and tried to throw bk to the right and got picked for game winning FG (covered/over)

Ohio St opened -9 and has been bet down to -8... total opened 46, came down to 45, now bk to 46 on game day.

I do think Ohio St has the best 2 WRs in the game (egbuka and smith)
Both QBs are decent "power runners" and 'gamers'.. Howard (Oh St) better thrower I think.
NDame's Defense (and Coach) might be better, but both will take advantage if you turn it over

Not a big fan of either team so much, but I think the line is over-priced on Ohio St (recency bias)
Ohio State's WRs probably make a few big plays, ND defense prob gets a cheap TD/turnover... NCAA wants a crowd-pleaser

PLAYED:
Par) NDame +8.5/OVER 45.5 >>> 255/601

Leaning straight play on OVER... ?

that's all for now ~ BoL

danggg that was close lol

a simple 1st down at midfield would've been perfect.. but the long pass to Smith was the dagger, and the easy FG killed my middle.

hit some OSt hedges and props.. lost egbuka prop by .5 yard, and Howard got tackled on the 1 (had ATD @ 3/1)..

overall the 2h made it fun even if I didn't hit it!

Commanders and Bills next Sunday!!!
