Non-gamblers can steer clear of this ...

OSU, in most places, is a 6.5 or 7 point fav.
Are you putting money on the game?

Has Bo's death altered how you'll bet on this game?
 
What's the line on how many threads started about the game this week? I'm taking the over, whatever that is.
 
We had a single Mich-Ohio St thread but 21 insisted on breaking it up into individual threads.

Speaking of 21 - where's my cocoa? Matlock is almost on!
 
The latest line at USA today says the over/under is 40 ...

have you guys forgotten this is Big 10 football?
I'm thinking like a 17-14 game, or something along the lines. Hate over/under betting ... but I'm not sure I can put money on OSU to win by 7 or more.

Of possible interest:
Under is 7-1 in Michigan's last 8.
Under is 10-2 in OSU's last 12.
 
As I said elsewhere, because I am a dope and didn't see this thread, I am loving the under.

Tease the spread to 13 points, take Michigan
Tease the over under to 46 and take the under.

Don't you ever get tired of being wrong?

You loved John Kerry too - how did that work out for you?

Of course I'm sure we'll get some excuse from about how **** Cheney and Haliburton somehow bought off the defensive coordinators and that's why the score was so high.

Which is why I don't bet with a bookie any more.
 
Was with a group, and announced the 4th down interference call before the pass was thrown.

It was the perfect spot for the interference-bait pattern, and jesus, did it work.

Bo's death pushed me toward taking Michigan and 6.5 points (for $50). I figured Ohio St. would win, but fail to cover.

I was right for a change.

Congrats, Birdscribe. In the rematch, at a neutral field, I think I may go Michigan, though. The hangup is that Tressel seems to have his way with the Wolverines. Didn't think Carr called a great game yesterday.

Plan was solid, execution needed help
