Penn St. cannot win this game. However, the Buckeyes can lose it.

As someone who went to Penn State for the last four years let me say this...

Michael Robinson has all the athletic talent in the world but has the history of making absolutely terrible decisions and throws at random times. However, this has been better the last two games.

I've seen major games at Beaver Stadium and the place will be shaking...remember it seats 108,000 fans and will be packed.

PSU is looking to prove something, and this has upset city written all over it.

Overall, OSU is the better team and "should" win, but I wouldn't touch this game either way. If PSU's D comes out like it did against Northwestern they don't have a chance.

Perfect analysis. I think the line of -3 is right where it should be.

If you are trying to make money betting sports, this is not the game to do it on. Ohio State is a much better team, but they have not played a road game yet, much less at a tough place to play like Penn State. There are too many variables to make any kind of reasonable prediction imo. I think this is a no bet.

Haha, Penn States stadium rocking when visitors are on the field isnt even as loud as OSU fans are when Ohio State is at home on offense.

Easy win for the Buckeyes, a 10 point line would be tempting for this absurdly overrated Penn State team. Apparently if you beat patsy Northwestern in a nail biter and then beat an overrated Minnesota team you should only get 3 against a top teir team.

Well, I feel sure you can get someone on this site to take PSU +7.5 and you would both be happy. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I've been to both PSU games as well as one OSU game. And I can honestly say Beaver Stadium when Penn State is 3-100 is MUCH louder than the Horseshoe when OSU is a top 10 team. And it's not close. PSU is a diehard football school, and not just when we have a good team. I'd love to see other 3-win teams bring in 90K people to see their team play.

(I realize this has nothing to do with sports betting but I felt compelled to back up my school.)
