Army at Ohio State

September 16, 2017
img4:30 PM Eastern

Army has the unenviable task of catching of Ohio State off an upset loss. J.T. Barrett was 19 of 35 for 183 yards with no touchdowns and an interception for the Buckeyes, who managed 350 total offense yards.  It's well known Army will keep the ball on the ground and try to use up as much clock as possible and the Black Knights come off a 21-17 win over Buffalo by racking up 322 yards on a whopping 66 carries. Army attempted only eight passes and completed two and opposing quarterback Tyree Jackson was held to 9-of-16 for 193 yards. Army has stayed UNDER in five of its last seven road contests and five of its last seven after an ATS loss. Ohio State has gone UNDER in five of its last seven home games and five of its last seven September games. The Buckeye defense will want to redeem itself after last week's debacle, so take the UNDER.
