Top teams are usually a choice by books to squeeze a few extra points into the line, as they anticipate the public looking on that side of the line, thus is the case here. Jared Sullinger is back after being out with a cranky back, so I don't think he logs major minutes here with bigger games ahead. He returned vs. Lamar and had a good game, but the Buckeyes won by just 20, and should face even more resistance here vs. Miami, Ohio. The Redhawks beat a very good Belmont team already this season, and despite the 3-6 record on the season have been quite competitive. The Redhawks own a win vs. Dayton, and lost to Cincinnati by just 9 and Xavier by 6, and are 13-5 TS in their last 18 as a dog of +13.5 or more. The Buckeyes are not showing their "A" game vs. losing teams, at just 5-11 ATS in their last 16. Take the points and play on Miami, Ohio.
