Guess that's about right. Although I don't know much about OSU. They haven't lost their whole OL, starting a true frosh QB, or something like that, right?
vegas knows their stuff usually
Vegas misses just as often as they get it rightQuote:

I think most of that criteria that they use for the first few games of the season is based a lot on how the team performed the previous season ... I would bet the balance of my V-cash account with 11-1/2 point spot
It all depends on our DL being better and if we make up our mind to run the the damn football like we are supposed to.
I think we will be better running the ball against them, to eat up clock, but I am still scared to death at how fast they score. If we don't match them score for score it could get ugly for us.
I'd say they got it pretty accurate. Picking 9 of 12 games correctly isn't bad.Quote:

Vegas was off by 9 or more points on the spreads of our games in 8 of the 11 they handicapped.Quote:

We just have to make sure they're as good as advertised.
Oh, and we need to pound the rock.........
If we decide to not run the ball down their Big12 defensive throats, they will be 100% correct.Quote:

Vegas is out to make money, not necessarily to be right. The line is 11.5 because Vegas believes that will get equal betting on both sides.Quote:

Newish defensive coordinator. Check
Untested secondary. Check
Anemic offense. Check.
I just hope we don't get blown out on national television.
