about a 10 degree difference on average

not a big deal

unless you've got a bunch of Florida kids on the roster

Ohio State probably should win and be favored on paper- it's a home game and they have more skill talent everywhere except...QB. But it should be a very close hard fought game. Tennessee will have a very real shot at the upset.

2024 Ohio State was a LEGIT QB- think CJ Stroud, Dwayne Haskins (RIP), Justin Fields (Will Howard is the very definition of the slang term mid) and a top tier OL away from truly being in that convo for "GrEaTesT tEaM eVuRrr" on paper like Urbs said.

It feels like Tennessee has only a couple of paths to win this one. They will either need to turn it into a mud fight and make a couple of plays, or maybe have that young quarterback suddenly come into his own and match his talent.

it feels like Ohio State has more paths, but I feel like their quarterback is just not excellent enough to make me feel truly comfortable.
this is my thought exactly. Will Howard ain't it. Never been it. He lost his job at Kansas State and had to hit the portal for a reason. He's a guy you can win with if you don't ask him to do much. But with the OL injuries and lack of depth at OL that OSU has and their inability to run the ball consistently- they have had to ask Howard to do more as of recent and simply put he ain't that guy. He's a future UDFA. Dude ain't a top 10 nfl draft pick like CJ Stroud, Justin Fields, or Dwayne Haskins (RIP).

Glad we're playing in Austin.  Sunny and high of 62 is the current forecast for 12/21.

Heck yeah. Of course for me anything above 50 and sunny is shorts weather on the golf course.

I *might* go to long pants if the day is expected to be <60 and overcast all day, but often won't even do that unless we're expecting a fair amount of wind or light rain on top of the temp/clouds.

Yeah, 50 degrees in direct sunlight with no wind can heat you up in a hurry, if you are out being active in it. 

As soon as the sun goes down though, you need to change into warmer clothing post haste.
