00:00Yeah, another fantastic matchup away Saturday afternoon. It's the Volunteers, Tennessee

00:10taking on Ohio State. Both teams sitting at 10 and 2 for the season. The number sits at

00:16seven and a half. Ohio State at home. Gonna have to cover a touchdown. Early thoughts

00:21on this one, Rich.

00:23Yeah, listen, I have money already on Ohio State to win the national championship. I

00:29think they've been seething since November 30th, that loss to Michigan. I can't look

00:35past all of the talent that they have. I still think this is the best roster in college football.

00:42With all due respect to Oregon, I think they're going to get a rematch in the Rose Bowl against

00:46the Ducks. I don't want to get too ahead of myself, but I think this will be a low-scoring

00:52game. Thinking about, I wanted to get in the under at 47 and a half. I see it's slipped

00:57to 46 and a half. I might still put something on that under 46 and a half. Two terrific

01:04defenses. My big concern, Dubs, for Tennessee is one-dimensional offense is not going to

01:11work against this Ohio State defense. Dylan Sampson's one of the best running backs in

01:17the country. I admit that. But Nico E. Amalieva, I know he was strong down the stretch, back-to-back

01:24four touchdown games, but that was against UTEP and Vanderbilt. I think he's going to

01:29have problems in the passing game. I expect Ohio State and Jim Knowles, their defensive

01:34coordinator, to just throw everything into the box to stop the legs of Nico and the legs

01:40of Dylan Sampson. I think Tennessee struggles to score. Low-scoring game, Ohio State wins.

01:47I could see something on the order of 24-13, 27-13 Ohio State. I think they're going to

01:55build ahead of steam. And that Rose Bowl, which really should not be a second-round

02:00game, that is unfair for Oregon as the top seed, that Rose Bowl could be the national

02:06championship a week later.
