Well here we go Ohio State vs anyone from the SEC in a bowl game. We all know how that has worked out in the past. Ohio State is currently 0-9 versus the SEC. Here are the results of those games:1978 Sugar Bowl - Alabama 35, Buckeyes 6
1990 Hall of Fame Bowl - Auburn 31, Buckeyes 14
1993 Citrus Bowl - Georgia 21, Buckeyes 14
1995 Citrus Bowl - Alabama 24, Buckeyes 17
1996 Citrus Bowl - Tennessee 20, Buckeyes 14
2001 Outback Bowl - South Carolina 24, Buckeyes 7
2002 Outback Bowl - South Carolina 31, Buckeyes 28
2007 BCS Championship - Florida 41, Buckeyes 14
2008 BCS Championship - LSU 38, Buckeyes 24
So how do they beat Arkansas?
1. Pressure, pressure, pressure. They can not allow Ryan Mallett to sit in the pocket and pick them apart.
2. Pryor being Pryor. He must create on offense. He must take the game over like he did in the Rose Bowl win over Oregon.
3. "O" Line. They must win the battle up front. Mike Adams can not be his usual sluggish self out there.
4. Special Teams. No mistakes. Kick coverage must be better than it has all year.
Predictions
Mallett throws for over 300 yards and three TD's.
Pryor throws for 225 and rushes for over 100
Defense comes up with 4 turn overs
Bucks finally beat a SEC team 38 - 21
Go Bucks!!
