Ohio St #2 5-0

Oregon +3.5 O/U 53.5 via ESPN BET

4:30 at Autzen Stadium, TV- NBC

College Gameday in Eugene, one of their favorite locations. Who should be the guest picker ? 

Ty Burrell? 

Joey Harrington? 

Buckeyes coming off a 35-7 victory over Iowa

Oregon DLine will best tested against a quality OLine

Oregon has the 6th best pressure rate in the country 

Secondary will need to play disciplined and aggressive 

Need to force Will Howard to make mistakes with pressure and confusion and keep the ball out of Jeremiah Smith and Emeka Egbukas hands

How much does Will Howard run the ball? 

Cannot allow Ohio St to get the running game going with Quinshon Judkins and Treyveon Henderson 

OLine must keep DG clean and clear holes for JJ

DG needs to play mistake free football, no turnovers 

Feed Jordan early and often to open up the passing game and get some explosives

Evan Stewart, Trasehon Holden and Terrance Ferguson will be key in this game as Ohio St will try and take Tez away. 

Keep the ball away from Caleb Downs 

Oregon wins if…

Ducks win the battle of the trenches and get a few explosive plays on offense.

Autzen must make a difference

Oregon loses if …

Ohio St is able to run the ball, play their style and control the game. 

Autzen noise and Oregon front 7 will be the difference in the game. 

Predictions 

Oregon 34

Ohio St 31

Jessie

Oregon 38

Ohio St 33

Herbert vs Nix on Sunday in the afternoon window

Nix has looked better the last two weeks. Herbert still has no oline or weapons.

Chargers -3

I would take the Broncos and the points

Lynx vs Liberty

Thursday night 5pm

Lynx 3-1 vs Liberty this season

Last Take

Playoff baseball is awesome and I'm a sad Mariners fan.
