Tennessee and Ohio State, Saturday night, 8 p.m. in the Horseshoe.
00:07
Cold weather conditions, Tennessee and Knoxville, heads north here, the Orange versus the Red.
00:14
Seven and a half is the number, Joe, it's over a touchdown as a favor towards the Buckeyes
00:17
in a total of 46 and a half.
00:20
I think overall there's more talent on Ohio State, but that doesn't mean they're going
00:23
to win this football game.
00:24
Joe, what are you saying?
00:26
Yeah, well, we've seen a fluctuation in terms of the market, too, Donny.
00:30
Sunday it opened up when they put out these college football playoff odds.
00:34
We had eight and a half, we saw it go down as low as six and a half, and now more money
00:38
coming in and buying back on Ohio State under a key number of seven, it'll be 22 degrees
00:44
in terms of the forecast.
00:45
Ohio State does have two top five wins over Penn State and Indiana.
00:50
They're at home, more dominant at home than potentially they are on the road, but I'm
00:55
still going to take the points with Tennessee.
00:57
I understand the quarterback inconsistency, maybe with Nico, but that tempo with the rushing
01:02
attack, I think could give the Ohio State defense some problems.
01:06
They gave up a ton of yards to the Michigan rushing attack as well.
01:10
When they lose games, I'm talking about Ohio State, they're allowing a lot of yards on
01:14
the ground, and that's the MO of Tennessee.
01:16
I don't think the cold weather bothers them.
01:18
I'm going to strike the upset, give me the points and I'll take them outright, plus 220.
01:24
Let's double down on this.
01:25
If they do strike the upset, the Tennessee Volunteers, Ryan Day fired the next day.
01:28
They said, hey, he's coming back, he can't lose two straight games like that.
01:33
No, that night, I don't even think he makes it past the tunnel.
01:39
They're going to be after him, and that's another factor why, when you think about this
01:43
game, how tight he potentially can be if this is in the fourth quarter.
01:48
That could be a big problem for Ryan Day.
01:51
He has not called a great game plan in critical matchups, so I'll take the points with the
01:55
more loose team, and Josh Heupel, I think in an offensive mind, he'll have his team
01:59
prepared.
