The market believes that Ohio State can't lose this game as they are a 5.5, 6-point
00:06
favorite.
00:07
But the total coming down here a little bit, and to me, Zinn, this is all about, A, how
00:13
many points wins this game?
00:15
What is the winning team's score?
00:17
Is it 27?
00:18
Is it 24?
00:19
Is it 30?
00:20
And if it is a big number, well, then some of these props that we got here with Will
00:27
Howard, who has been throwing the ball all over the place, I'm seeing him at, what, 244
00:33
and a half passing yards.
00:35
Are they going to run it?
00:36
If it's a lower-scoring game, should we be looking maybe more at the rushing props with
00:41
Judkins and Henderson here?
00:43
It's interesting, depending on how you think the script rolls here.
00:48
If Texas's defense falls apart in the second half like they've done the last couple of
00:52
games, should we be looking at all of these guys going up and over, especially Will Howard?
00:59
The only ones I would really look at, I think that, you know, if you're in favor of Texas
01:03
and you think Texas has a shot to win this game, and I would say that any of the passing
01:09
or receiving props, if they go over, Texas may be dead in the water, right?
01:13
Like could Quinton Judkins get 60 yards over the course of four quarters in a tight game,
01:19
especially one that's defensive and close?
01:21
Yes.
01:22
Could Quinton Judkins and Henderson do the same?
01:24
Yes.
01:25
But if Smith and Agukma are over their receiving yards props, Texas is getting beaten in secondary,
01:31
they're dead.
01:32
They're dead.
01:33
They just cannot play catch-up against this Ohio State defense.
01:37
They literally can't.
01:38
Again, Michigan beat Ohio State in a low-scoring slugfest.
01:45
Will Howard wasn't able to throw the ball.
01:46
He didn't have time.
01:47
He wasn't comfortable in the pocket.
01:49
All those things are true.
01:51
If Texas wants to beat Ohio State, they have got to do it up front and make Will Howard
01:57
uncomfortable.
01:58
But if he throws for more than 250 yards and both of those receivers are anywhere over
02:02
their receiving yardage prop, I think Texas is dead.
02:06
I just don't, I don't see a game script where Texas wins an over game in a shootout.
02:12
Like I understand we think Quinn Ures in this offense can do that, right?
02:17
We've seen them put up 40 points at will.
02:20
But a lot of that has been on the ground this year.
02:22
A lot of that has been their defense dominating, forcing three and outs, getting the ball back
02:26
quickly and just overpowering people.
02:28
I get it.
02:29
That's not going to happen here against Ohio State.
02:31
You're going to be able to move the ball one first down, you're going to end up punting.
02:35
And that's what you need Ohio State to do here.
02:36
So I don't think the over favors Texas at all.
02:39
If we get even closer to the thing, I don't think Texas can win the game.
02:43
If Ohio State touches 30, Texas may be dead.
