Don't worry, Kansas won't be winning out. Just go ahead and assume they have one loss even if it comes in the title game.

@Oklahoma St. - They beat Texas, they could beat KU.
Missouri - Has a good shot at beating KU.
Title game...

[/ QUOTE ]

Uh... no they didn't. In any case, I give Kansas about a 10% chance of going undefeated.

[/ QUOTE ]

10% is pretty close, probably a tad low.

70% to beat OSU
100% to beat ISU
50% to beat MU

That's 35% to be undefeated going into the game against OU. I would think at that point they're better than 28% against OU on a neutral field.

But 10% is pretty close.

[/ QUOTE ]

100% to beat ISU? The team that just beat KSU and almost beat Oklahoma? 90% is more likely. You will be about 17 point favorites in that game according to Sagarin.

You are only 5 point favorites @ Okie State- probably closer to 60 or 65% there. I haven't seen the money lines, so check there.

50% to beat MU is probably about right. That would mean you need 37% or better to beat Oklahoma to reach 10%.

I think its pretty close to 8-10%.

suppose OSU was playing Michigan this week instead of next (it's at Michigan) -- what is the point spread?

-4.5 OSU sound about right?

[/ QUOTE ]

I think it'd be higher given Henne and Hart injuries. I'd say -6.5, maybe even across the 7.

[/ QUOTE ]

Aren't they pretty much healthy at this point? Hart ran for 110 yards against Michigan State and Henne was 18/33 for 211 with 4 TDs. Even if they aren't at 100% now, I'd think they would be by a week from Saturday.

Neither is anywhere near 100%. They're just that good.

tOSU has to be second only to Notre Dame for best teams to bet against vs. the spread. Tressel never runs it up and tOSU fans are delusional, degenerate bettors.

Really? tOSU is 6-3 ATS this year, 9-3 last year. Both of those get them in the top 10 of all teams. In their 2002 NC run, they were 8-6 because they beat half their opponents by like 3 points. Now they are about even money on the O/U this year, 3-9 last year. My source for exact numbers was covers.com.

Don't worry about the facts or anything, Riverman.

Uhh they still won despite being way more injured than they or Carr or anyone is probably letting on? It was still a rivalry game on the road against a team with a good pass rush. Henne came up huge.

Oh, and our playcalling blew so hard for all of the 3rd and half the 4th quarters. But that's standard.

MSU always plays out of their minds against Michigan and Michigan has no respect for them.
