Wow, what is going on here? I know Houston's offense is really good but I don't see this game being as tough as people are making it seem.

First of all, last year's game wasn't that close. A 19 point victory that really should have been 26 points but Gundy elected to kneel on the ball on the one yard line and close the game out instead of scoring.

Second, Houston beat up on a really bad team last Saturday while OSU played a beast of a defense. Houston's O-Line averages 26 less pounds per player than Georgia's. Their D-Line is also nowhere near as strong or deep. On top of that, Zac didn't get much practice before the Georgia game due to the injury concern. I expect OSU's offense to have a field day come this Saturday.

OSU's defense has improved but this game will tell us how much. The depth will be tested and I think the players will take it as a challenge. Houston may keep it relatively close in the first half, but OSU will dominate the second half much like last year.
