Re: Michigan Ohio State Ticket Price
 

When Hockey was really hot back in 1998-2000 I remember Dallas Stars playoff tickets being insane.

My boss at the company I worked for paid 3K a piece for crappy seats to game 6 of the Stanley Cup finals.

tOSU will not lose before the Michigan game....99% certainty

Michigan is unlikely to lose, but will be challenged....I give them 60% chance of being undefeated to that point

It seems I haven't watched as much football as you have this year, but it seems to me that Michigan is as good if not better than Ohio State.

FWIW, even if both teams were had a 94% chance in each game the rest of the way, one team would have a loss more often than not.

Re: Michigan Ohio State Ticket Price
 

other than the Michigan State game, tOSU will be favored by 24+ points in every game most likely

teams favored by that much have won over 99% of their games in the past 5 years

I'm not sure Michigan is as good, but that is somewhat beside the point. The main idea is Michigan still as at Penn State and Iowa left on the schedule. While Michigan is better than both teams, there is a significant chance to lose in either of those contests.

Michigan simply has more losable games along the way.

Okay, give me 98-1 odds on that(bargin). How much shall we bet?

Re: Michigan Ohio State Ticket Price
 

It is interesting that you post this, as I am going to this game regardless of the cost (well up to $1k prolly.) I was wondering what the masses here think is the better idea. If I buy the ticket now, it will be less expensive than later if both teams are undefeated. Conversely, if one of the teams suffers a loss, it will be less expensive later on. What to do, what to do?

Re: Michigan Ohio State Ticket Price
 

the risk/reward just isn't worth it, but I understand your point


Instead, you can expect me to be on tOSU moneylines for each individual game at Pinny where my risk/return will be much more optimal

Re: Michigan Ohio State Ticket Price
 

also, tOSU does have redundancies in their system

They have above adequete depth at nearly all positions including the exposed, key ones like QB and RB

I'm not sure if Michigan has a quality back-up for Henne

Injuries do happen....look at how key depth has been for Louisville

That's a really good point. Although neither team would be close to what it is without the starting QB (naturally), the cupboard behind Henne is currently bare. Michigan may not be heavily reliant on its passing game (seems moreso on D this year and then balance on O), but having Forcier back there is going to be a huge problem, especially against a team like the Buckeyes. The O-line is also quite thin. Michigan does have some decent horses in the backfield, although none of them hold a candle to Hart right now.
