The guys did not like what they saw from Ohio State against Oregon. The segment closed on a blunt question: who is Ohio State to lay this big a number with that offense right now?
The guys also noted that Ohio State had just fired its special teams coordinator after giving up bad kick returns and a fake punt. Colby, for his part, admitted the fake punt was a great call.
Colby’s pick comes with a condition. It hinges on one player suiting up. If he plays, Colby thinks Northwestern covers with ease. If he sits, Colby expects to get drilled, with Ohio State winning by 21. Colby thinks he will play, and the guys noted some optimism on that front.
Colby figured Northwestern is all but eliminated with three Big Ten losses, and that did not move him off the points. Picking up on Colby’s point, one of the guys took Northwestern +12.5 as well.
