00:00I'm also excited to talk a little bit about Iowa and Ohio State.
00:04I feel like we've kind of slowly been getting to some of these ranked,
00:08ranked Big Ten games.
00:10We had it last week when we think about the USC-Oregon results.
00:14Super scary situation with Dante Moore,
00:17but Dylan Raiola stepped in and was great for Oregon.
00:22Now you've got, you know, Ohio State, who, 14.5-point favorites.
00:28They do have a loss on them already.
00:30You know, if Iowa, who pulled off a magic win last week in Ann Arbor, Dave,
00:35could do the same, Ohio State's season starts to look very, very shaky,
00:40though certainly oddsmakers and bettors are not really expecting that.
00:45Yeah, and looking at the board, we're going to talk a lot of games today,
00:48but this, to me, Kevin, was the hardest one to handicap of them all
00:51because obviously we think Ohio State's the better team.
00:54We saw Iowa pull one out of the Rabbids' hat last week in Ann Arbor
00:57and beat Michigan.
00:58This is a step up.
00:59This is a major step up.
01:00We all know Ohio State is much better than Michigan, but you are at home.
01:03Tough delay, the 14.5, but at the same time,
01:07Iowa plays that style of defense to keep it close,
01:09and I do want to point out that, you know, to emphasize your point,
01:14Ohio State has that loss already,
01:15and you don't want to go down the road of having two losses
01:19before you even play some of the other big boys in the Big Ten
01:23because then you're talking about your playoffs are up in the air.
01:26Of course, you know, the answer is to go to 24.
01:28It's what everybody thinks that's the answer, but this game does matter,
01:31and this is a point where you shouldn't go to 24 teams
01:34because this game wouldn't matter, and I do think Ohio State gets it done.
01:39We've seen this before, but we've also seen Iowa win this game at home,
01:44throwing up 50-some-odd points against Ohio State,
01:47but I think the fact that Ohio State knows they can't lose this game
01:51has them coming into a different mantra today, and I do think they win.
01:55I'm not in the position, and neither are you,
01:57neither one of us likes to lay 14.5 on the road in a tough location.
02:01It would not surprise me if they won somewhere of 24-10,
02:05which is right on that line, so it's going to be a tough one.
02:08I do think it's low scoring, but I do think Ohio State wins it.
02:11You know, the thing for Ohio State-Iowa,
02:13they will be fighting for, you know, the big screen in a lot of homes
02:18with the new darling of the college football world.
02:23The baton keeps getting past LSU week one.
02:28Annihilate.
02:30Annihilate Clemson.
02:31And then they go to Ole Miss, and what do you know?
02:35Trinidad Chambliss is the new Heisman Trophy favorite.
02:40And then Ole Miss go to the Swamp,
02:43and the Gators are the best offense in college football.
