The Tulsa Golden Hurricane are going to have a difficult task when they travel to Columbus to take on the Ohio State Buckeyes, but they could be worth a look against the spread. Tulsa has covered in their past seven true road games while Ohio State is just 2-8 ATS in their past 10 at The Shoe.
J.T. Barrett solidified himself as a potential Heisman candidate after accounting for seven touchdowns in Week 1 – the most by any player in Ohio State history. Barrett led the offense to 776 yards, which was yet another school record. The defense also held Bowling Green to 2.5 yards per rush while registering three interceptions.
Tulsa’s D’Angelo Brewer continued where he left off last season by rushing for 164 yards and three touchdowns in Week 1. The Golden Hurricane’s defense was particularly stout against the rush, as they allowed just 53 yards on 32 carries.
