Didn't expect OSU to even keep it that close.

I did. I expected them to at least cover.

Its speed they have a problem with. Overall team speed, not just at the skill positions. Texas isnt terribly fast. Those last few bowl games that Ohio St lost were against some pretty darn fast teams.

I think this game sewed up which way i will bet on thursday. I dont expect that game to be close at all.

I enjoyed the game...Of course the Horns won, but it was alot closer than anyone predicted and the Buckeyes just needed a little more luck and maybe a better quarterback Was a real nail bitter to the end.

the senior qb came off the bench to help keep them in the game.

I'm likeing the Gators,especially if Harvin is healthy. Gators have a 'get it done' guy at QB. If the Sooners speed on defense can match Gators...it will be a great game to watch.
