Missouri heads to the Cotton Bowl with a mixed bag when stepping up. They lost 30-21 to Georgia and got thumped by No. 23 LSU, 49-39, surrendering 527 yards. Mizzou's defense ranks 80th on third down (40.52%) and 63rd versus the pass. The Tigers are 4-16 ATS in December games. No. 7 Ohio State has great balance on offense, along with a defense that finished third in yards allowed, second in points (11.4 per game), No. 1 against the pass, and second on third down (26.88%). Ohio State is 190-150 ATS as a favorite, 72-45 ATS versus offenses that average 31+ points, and 20-8 ATS away from home after a defeat. Play Ohio State.
