We have yet to have a major upset this year, that I can recall, and this won't be it I suspect.
Trying to create some bulletin board material?

starting to feel like that major upset just might be a Brock Bowers-less Georgia to Missouri next Saturday imo...

I picked Florida over UGA on the SEC Board already.

UGA less Bowers is a 9-3 kind of team I think.

I think y'all beat Florida honestly, UGA still just a much better team than UF. Y'all have to go @Tennessee but man, Joe Milton really sucks so I think UGA wins that one as well. Ole Miss doesn't have a defense- so I think UGA should be fine there.

Missouri actually surprisingly looks pretty decent, and Luther Burden is pretty insane- dude looks like a 1st round WR as a true soph. 

UGA still 12-0/11-1 at worst without Bowers imo. Where it might hurt them is in the SECCG, because Bama seems to have turned that thing around a little bit. Their OL is improving after being terrible at the start of the season, and Milroe is what he is at this point and they are embracing that because their other QBs they tried were so god awful- and the defense is very good and it has gotten better week to week.

If Wisconsin's defense plays up to their potential and Allen has a big day, Wisconsin can upset the Buckeyes.

PS. Double team Harrison Jr.

Wisconsin CAN upset the Bucs, it's just rather unlikely, maybe one chance in ten.  What's the spread?  14?

Ohio State can't run the ball and while they do have the best receiver in the world, they no longer have one of the best quarterbacks in the world, so any game against a real opponent can be dicey.

From Badger247:


As much as the media will want to make Saturday about Fickell going against his alma mater, where he played from 1993-96 and coached from 2002-16, he won't allow it. Fickell said he often receives requests from Columbus outlets and the Big Ten Network to discuss this dynamic, but gives the spotlight to his players instead. 


"The first thing to start off with, it's not about me," said Fickell. "I don't want to get too much into it. It's about the players, it's about our team, it's about our program, it's about the journey we're on, not the specifics of, 'Hey you played there.' 


"When the ball is kicked off, that'll have absolutely no effect on anything that happens on that field."





Coach Fickell is the anti-PJ Barnum.

Is he still wearing the vest thing?  That's something PJ wishes he did.

He is - he was asked to wear it by the team, which is something PJ would never wish for.

The Buckeyes seem to have that “ thing” we sometimes see in sports.  

They can have a tendency to play to the level of their opponent.  And as much as we all are not used to it- their defense is what has kept them in games while their offense rotates between sputtering and moving the ball nicely.  ( which comes from being unable to run block consistently)

Throw in the Camp Randall effect, and the “ back to earth” effect for OSU after playing in a huge game, and I see a tight one.   

Like a 28-21 type game. 
Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.

Ya and since the middle of last season the RBs can't stay healthy and Day needs to just hand the rock to Hayden IMHO. Maybe light a fire under the other guys. he must really trip up in practice because on game day he always looks sharp and slashing
