Who you got? UT VS OSU

I think if the game was at Tennessee they would win. But the Vols two losses this year were on the road Arkansas and Georgia. Their other two road games Oklahoma and Vanderbilt they were not overly impressive. I think Ohio wins this game because they are at home.
 
Doesn't Oho St have a traditionally poor record vs SEC teams?
I went and looked it up. They have only played three games against the SEC since beating Bama in 2014 CFP. They’re 0-3. Smashed by 2020 Bama during Covid year, 2022 was the choke in the playoff against Georgia/missed FG, and then last year in the bowl game after some opt outs.

They have only played like 8 SEC teams in 24 years. Won two.

None of those were home games though, which has to make a difference (even though I already bet Tennessee)
 
The biggest factor in favor of OSU ans against UT is the 25 degree weather and night game in the Shoe.
 
OSU's first win ever against the SEC was the bowl game after tattoo gate with multiple players being suspended. OSU begged to let them sit the first game the following season and play against Arkansaw in some bowl. NCAA agreed, kids played, beat Arky and promptly declared for the draft. So no punishment n ment for all the free tatts. Not a big deal but they lied to win.

Yeah I don’t put any stock into stuff from 10-20 years ago regarding the current landscape of things. Playing at OSU in December is going to be tough for them.

I don’t believe in Texas so I believe whoever comes out of the Oregon/OSU/Tenn is your final participant against probably Georgia.

I’d prefer Oregon win it all as they haven’t but I think Ohio State could win that rematch.
 
It's almost like having to choose between ISIS and the Taliban.

In all seriousness, I will reluctantly root for the Buckeyes. My allegiance to SEC Teams playing other schools outside the conference doesn't apply to Tennessee.
I'd root for the Chinese National Ping Pong team versus UT-Knoxville.
