I still wouldn't be surprised to see it 55-45, or even close to 50-50. Buckeye nation travels better than anyone in the country (Sorry Notre Dame).

Man, not much longer to go.

The game is in the heart of LSU country. Any tickets sold outside of the two athletic departments went like 90% to LSU fans. C'mon, LSU is only 70-80 miles from NOLA. It'll be 60/40, which is better than any other LSU involved Sugar Bowl/MNC game in NOLA.

Oh and that makes me sick. The Bourbon Street sign shouldn't be defaced like that! Damn Yankee bastards.

The Buckeyes are defacing New Orleans? And you're proud!?

[Sportsbuck]

Could care less DB.

[detroitbasketball]

Sportsbuck is going to be so very disappointed tonight....

[JacktheRipper]

He'll be surprised by the bias of the Superdome. I don't care how many OSU fans are down there, it'll still be at least 60/40. The game is still in Louisiana, you know home to Louisiana State University. It's like if the game was in Columbus, Ohio. I'm sure LSU would bring a lot of fans up, but it'd still be a very pro-tOSU crowd.

It will be a close game though, I just don't think Ohio State will have the offense to deal with LSU. Something like 20-10 is my final prediction.

[Sportsbuck]

Not really going to be that surprised. I expected around a 60-40 split of the crowd, in LSU's favor, since this bowl was announced.

It wouldn't shock me though for it to be around 55-45, or 50-50.

I'll give my position by position breakdown..

Here is just the edges, too lazy to go in-depth..

QB: LSU
RB: OSU
WR: Even
TE's: LSU
OL: OSU
DL: LSU
LB: OSU (Not by much)
DB: Even
K: LSU
P: OSU
Coach: OSU

Key in this game is the matchup of whoever is on Dorsey. Most likely it'll be 6'8, 330 pound Steve Rehring. Fortunately for us, Rehring is the only member of our offensive line who didn't struggle with the "SEC Speed" that Florida had last year (Nearly all 60 of Pittman's rushing yards last year - to the tune of 6.2 YPC - came right over Rehring).

I knew you were kidding but it was still a very stupid comment

and LSU WRs and LBs > than OSU

[Chief Bstn]

It was a very good comment. I didn't know Canadians had football, let a lone American football until 10 minutes ago.

[cooljayhu]

we dont have american football we have canadian football

the CFL is 3X more exciting than the NFL and 3X less expensive

[Chief Bstn]

I meant on TV, but what ev.

They even have their own professional leagues? WOW!

[cooljayhu]

yeah and we're all cooler than you

Oh for sure, it's the other ones that aren't as good. Highsmith is the best player besides Dorsey on that defense and it'll show tonight.
