PRO Projections and matching expert picks make for one solid Ohio State vs. Texas pick against the spread on Friday.

Our proprietary data and top experts in the Action App are siding with a team to cover the betting line when the Longhorns and Buckeyes meet in the Cotton Bowl. Also, the Big Money tool is active on the moneyline in Friday's CFP Semifinal.

Texas won but didn't cover in a narrow quarterfinal win over Arizona State.

Ohio State, meanwhile, followed up its opening-round rout of Tennessee with a consecutive blowout win vs. Oregon last weekend.

Ohio State is favored to advance to the national title game. Friday's Ohio State vs. Texas line lists Ryan Day and the Buckeyes -6, with an over/under of 53.

PRO data and experts are in step on the spread, while big money's betting on which team will win outright.
