OSB for countertop base?

The formica for my new countertops just came in, and I need to come up with some 5/8" plywood to glue it on to. When repairing the rotted bathroom floor, I used 5/8" oriented strand board.

Now I'm wondering how well OSB would work as a foundation for the new countertops. It is easier to come by, and a bit cheaper. I figured on gluing the formica to the "shiny" side of the OSB.

Anyone have any thoughts on the suitability of OSB as a countertop substrate?
