Ohio State prediction thread

[Pennsyhusker]

Ok, I have not seen one of these started yet so here goes:

Ohio State 55
Nebraska 6

Hate to predict a blowout, but that is how it looks to me. Sorry

 

[TwinsRRUs]

I guess you do live closer to them than Lincoln so you might be a closet Buckeye fan...

I am guessing you are not alone this week in a prediction like that! I am predicting the same!

OSU 48
NU 17

Not sure how we score, but hopefully we can. We will lose this game bad because our offense will not be able to do much vs their defense.

 

[TruHusker]

I may be in the minority but I want to see how our D holds up after the thrashing last week. With their front seven on D you.might see Tanner get killed.

I have read that their DB's are their weakness. Well, IF you have 6'5" receivers and IF you can throw to the outside and IF you have a quick release O and IF you can hold them out from killing your QB consistently for four quarters - Maybe.

Well, my father IS from Ohio.

I predict 10 minutes into the first quarter there's going to be a lot of people bitching on this board.

I predict 10 minutes into the first quarter there's going to be a lot of people bitching on this board.

And that's if we are winning. Five minutes if we are losing

The comments will just blend in with everything else on this board.

So what is your prediction?

Sounds about right. I don't see us scoring that many points without a turnover or punt return

 

[WHCSC]

Gross

 

[Husker-NJ]

59-3

 

[CatColumbia]

63-10 Ohio State

Our offense will give up 2 pick six's and our D will give up 3 touchdowns on big plays.

I thought on this board it is called " loosing."

 

[tro80]

news this morning says possible wind gusts to 40 mph during the game. I predict 49-6 with a couple of wind aided FGs, and Diaco says he is pleased with the progress on defense. NCAA in an emergency session adopts a running clock in the second half if the score differential is greater than 35.

 

[rrthusker]

Bucks 66 Huskers 13

Yes. I should of used loosing. I seen that alott on here. Their is alott of bad gramor on here

 

[Pennsyhusker]

Bucks 66 Huskers 13

Yes, I was tempted to put OSU in the sixty or above point range as well. But the weather is going to be sketchy

Ya but whose counting there mistakes?

Since we are a power running team and can run the ball on anyone...we could use the weather to our advantage in this game against a top 10 opponent!!!

Oh wait...

Where do you live? Can I come over and get some of what you are smoking? I could use an optimism boost

That will happen the first time Tanner goes back to pass.

I hoping the enact the mercy rule after the 1st quarter

I like the positive thought.

 

[CFBfan70]

OSU 36
Neb 27

Neb jumps out to a 14-3 lead to get your hopes up then OSU comes back.

 

[swissticuffs]

52 -21 Bucks

 

[Hoosker Du]

Since 2003, teams that were 24-point underdogs in Vegas are 3-135.

OSU - 44
NU - 17

 

[Pennsyhusker]

52 -21 Bucks

You see us scoring 21? Optimism!

 

[schuele]

I'll say Buckeyes 28, Huskers 13.

Not a nail-biter, but close enough that we will get treated to the usual crackerjack analysis noting that IF those 4 or 5 catastrophically bad plays just hadn't happened, this was basically a dead even game.

Ha. Good post. But I don't see it being close. I guess you think our defense will play pretty well

It’s happened. I like Nebraska keeping it within the number. 38-17, 38-21 type game

So similar to Wisconsin?

 

[Cloud@Heart]

31-27 Bad guys...... Beat on a gut wrenching drive in the last two minutes.

New York. So I don't see the doom and gloom that all the locals feel. It's still just a game between college kids that were all pretty talented in high school.

It’s hard to say what Ohio St is. They were beat at home by Oklahoma then won games, decisively, against “weaker” opponents Army, UNLV, Rutgers and Maryland. Don’t get me wrong they are good, but when you put a chick who is an 8 next to a 4, the 8 can look like a 10. It wouldn’t surprise me if Nebraska kept it within the 10-14. I think Wisconsin’s defense, overall, is better than tOSU’s. Nebraska moves the ball on Wisconsin but couldn’t score. Even if we only score on half the possessions we had inside the 40 in the first half, it’s a different game.

I believe this is a different type of game than Wisconsin. I don’t think it’s a game where they wear us down by pounding it. They just have better athletes up and down the roster.

I hope you are right. I just have seen too many times over the past ten years or so what happens when Nebraska plays against a team with speedy and talented athletes. We usually get boat raced
