* Not official championship game, however, conference title will be decided in this game.
The Big 12 needs a Championship game, they do. So in this classic battle its OSU getting 11 points. That’s a lot for two closely ranked teams. I’d go against this line on principle.
SEC

‘Bama is giving 24 points. They have nothing to prov, so they won’t cover. They will win tho.

The mere idea that Penn State should be in the playoffs if they win this game is absurd. PSU is not as good as their record shows. they lost to PITT and were blown off the field by Michigan. PSU has over-preformed this season and that is due to great coaching, but they are not in the same league as the top 4. Don’t tell that to one of the faithful happy valley cult zombies though; they will try to eat your brain. W is a 3 point favorite and should cover. This will be an EXCELLENT game.
