Kentucky vs Ohio State thoughts... Herman check in.

[Archie]

I'm hoping that this drubbing that Ohio State is laying on George Mason, makes everyone jump on ohio state when the line comes out.

have no idea what the opener will be..... any guesses?

Ohio State -5.5? game is in Newark I believe.....

 

[Herman]

Ohio State names the score.

 

[RayRay]

better athletes and better coaching...no problems with uk... oh.st. rolls easily...imo of course

 

[MrMonkey]

Archie -5 sounds about right! If Ohio St tries to run up and down the floor IMO UK has a chance to win the game. GMason a 5 man team all year that was missing a key part today. No way OST shoots that well again.

Ohio State -7 is my guess

OSU covers and wins by double digits

 

[CASPERWAIT$]

OSU wins by at least 10. Kentucky is not a smart team. Brains win later rounds.

 

[wal66]

Ohio St will open -5.5 to -6.

oh snap.

Some of you guys are giving up UK for dead.

I'm not. If they hang something fishy like OState -4 I will be all over UK

You'll probably see something around Ohio St. -7.5 to -8 for the opener.

What am I missing?

Yeah. I figured they'd shade the line toward Kentucky. OSU actually has value here.

line opened at -4.5 last night at pinny

 

[wal66]

My numbers indicate the line at 5.5 is correct. My actual line computed out at Ohio St -5.87. So far in this tourney when the fav and the calculated line jive the fav has been the correct play for the most part. All things considered though I personally like Kentucky's chances even though I won't touch the game.

No doubt Ohio St is a very good basketball team I keep coming back to the game in Gainesville earlier this season. Florida dominated the Buckeyes in the first half of that game and while Ohio St took over and won the game going away in the 2nd half they did expose a weakness to relentless pressure inside. Florida's downfall was they chose to go away from that in the 2nd half and attempted to control the game from the outside which they failed in doing.

If Kentucky focuses on inside physical play they can win this game outright. Like I said though I'm staying away so it's easy to have a differing opinion when you don't have to back it with a wager.

How do you determine 'correct'?
