Cranking it up for the first post-pigskin Saturday... Ohio U is laying a few in a huge rivalry game v. Miami. If you can get the Bobcats at home near a pick, you should usually take it. Lean Ohio -2 Penn State has won two tough roads games including at Illinois, and now catches a short number at home vs. Minny. Lean PSU Wazzou catching 7 against UCLA. Wazzou defense should keep this tight, this seems like a gift. Lean Wazzou Watching Iowa get smoked by OSU showed me that Iowa is really pathetic. Now, Michigan STate comes calling at Iowa and they are wayyyyyyy better than the Buckeyes. May swallow the road chalk. Lean Michigan State Hopefully, some of you will be crawling out of your holes to get involved this weekend.

Heavy set: Property taxes are pretty low in the city of Columbus, where I am. Out in the suburbs especially Upper Arlington, Dublin and New Albany you can get hit hard. Housing market has been tanking here, houses and condos that are 200 or 225 just aren't moving.

Got 13 inches in Columbus. Expected to be 15 by 6 PM.

I couldn't even begin to get my car out. I wish I had some snowshoes or skis so I could get to the store.

White out in Columbus Grocery store is only two blocks away though so I'm going to make a run for it.
