00:00Let's take a look at some of these prime-time props in here.
00:02We'll start with the quarterbacks because I look at the passing numbers here at the
00:05Fandula Sportsbook.
00:06Will Howard, 245.5 makes sense, got elite wide receivers.
00:09Riley Leonard listed at 178.5.
00:12To throw a touchdown pass is minus 180 for Leonard and Will Howard over 1.5 is due set
00:17a minus 148 price.
00:19But also, the legs of the quarterback might determine who's going to win this game.
00:22Riley Leonard sitting at 36.5 rushing yards.
00:25If you're playing these two quarterbacks, Mark, which way are you playing them?
00:30I mean, you have to lean with the Will Howard passing over.
00:35I just, from a game script perspective, if he's not getting to that 240-yard mark, do
00:41we really feel like the Buckeyes are dominating this game?
00:45I mean, they have to have some measure of success in the passing game.
00:49If Smith and Egbuka, as I have to redeem myself, Egbuka, are having success in the passing
00:56game, that means Ohio State is moving the ball and they're scoring.
01:00At this point, we've learned you're not really going to have much success running on Notre
01:02Dame's defense.
01:03So, why even try?
01:04I mean, when I say why even try, it's like you're obviously going to have to run the
01:07football, but that shouldn't be what your game plan is designed around, to go right
01:11into the teeth of the Notre Dame defense.
01:13Take advantage of corners that haven't really been matched up and look at how well Texas
01:17did for the most part with the big playability they had against Ohio State's corners.
01:21So, I think they can be had in the passing game as well, but still, I look around and
01:25I go, if the Ohio State receivers are not getting fed the ball, then Notre Dame is controlling
01:32the tempo of this thing, Will Howard is under a lot of pressure, and Ohio State's in trouble.
