Tulsa at Ohio State

The linemakers have posted a huge total for this matchup as they expect an overreaction from last week's results when Ohio State lit up Bowling Green for 77 points, and Tulsa beat San Jose State 45-10. Ohio State has gone UNDER in six of its last seven after a win of 20-plus points and 10 of its last 12 after any win. The Hurricane figures to improve on defense as it returns seven starters, including its two leading tacklers in linebackers Matt Linscott and Trent Martin. Tulsa held San Jose State to 53 net yards rushing on 1.7 yards per carry and the Spartans recorded only 287 yards total offense. Tulsa quarterback Dane Evans was 12-of-23 for 198 yards and a touchdown. Ohio State's defense held the Falcons to 69 net yards rushing and 2.5 yards per rush, and 175 passing yards and 16 first downs. The Buckeyes return only three starters on defense but, as usual, they have no trouble recruiting tremendous talent to replace them. The Buckeyes also return only three on offense and they went UNDER five of their last six regular season games in 2015 and they could be looking ahead to their big game next week at Oklahoma. Look for this matchup to stay UNDER the inflated total.
