The spread is 5.5 because Texas had/has the #1 Defense in college football coming into the CFP.  ASU ran all over them in the second half because Texas got worn down (ASU had the ball 13mins in the 3rd quarter) by a generational performance by an exceptional player.  OSU has a good run game, but not compared to ASU.  Howard is going to get beat to hell by Texas' pass rush, but I don't think Texas will shut down the passing game.

Ewers and Howard are both prone to throwing silly INTs and at bad times.  The team that makes the fewest mistakes will likely win (not a revelation).

Should be a very good game.

I agree.

I think the strength of OSU's offense is explosive plays and Texas is good at limiting explosive plays.

I think Ewers could be the difference maker here in the battle of QBs. 

Should be a great game!  

Supposed to snow here starting at noon and lasting until three in the morning, so not sure what I'm going to do for the game. Might just stay here or get an Über down the street to the Tavern since the sidewalks will be covered in snow and ice.
