My Gut is telling me that Ohio St. Isnt as good as people think

I just dont have much faith in their wins. I would not be surprised to see Clemson beat them by 21+.
I firmly believe they might be a glass house.

My gut tells me that any team that can go 13-0 is good. And my gut also tells me they have a few wins that are just as good as ours, if not better if you look at the rankings/records. Make no bones about it, this game will be closer than you think.

We'll beat them by 14-28 pts . That's almost a certainty . I expect a good first half , but BV and that defense will clamp ...like they always do , after a little learning on the fly . If we win the turnover battle and our offense is as sharp as it's been for 7 consecutive games , this will not be a close game . Ohio State's defense hasn't seen a team with 1/16th the talent they'll see that night . Akin to what UF did to them in 2006 , they're just not as good as the slanted media hopes that they are .

Your gut is full of crap

No offense. But this will be the best team we've faced since 2015/2016 Alabama. And they might be more complete then either of those teams due to the QB.
This will be a war and if the victor comes out healthy, they'll embarrass LSU (if OU doesn't do it first).

They may or may not be as good as people think... But they are better than they were in 2016. I doubt you are going to see a 31-0 or anything close to it. I would expect a 4 quarter game.

My gut tells me if Justin Fields' mobility is back to 100%, it will be extremely difficult to get their offense off the field.
It is time to let go of 30-3 and 44-16 (and esp. 31-0). Nothing like that is going to happen. Ohio State is a great team that will hang with us for 4 quarters and might even win. Having to face adversity against Wisconsin actually helps them.
They are really really good. Definitely beatable though.

They are every bit as good as people think, we are better than people think.... anyone who thinks this game is going to be a cakewalk is clearly not in touch with reality. That team is good, very good. They have home team advantage in Phx and they have revenue motive on their side. Airline ticket prices to Phoenix are nuts right now... 3 days after Christmas? I really have bone to pick with the CFP for their bone headed scheduling practices.

I'm not in touch with reality, so I'm going to go with my gut too. CLEMSON will jump all over OSU early, and unlike the Wisky collapse, CLEMSON is SKRONG and wins going away. CLEMSON hangs 50 on them and I doubt OSU scores more than 24.
The Big 10 is just plain bad every year, and until I see differently in the post-season, then my opinion will not change. They usually suck when they play OOC competition in the post-season.
