Carlos Hyde is feeling it; His Buckeyes are early 6-point favs over Michigan
Date Opponent Fav Source
8/31 Buffalo OSU (-33) 5Dimes
9/28 Wisconsin OSU (-11) Golden Nugget
11/30 Michigan OSU (-6) Golden Nugget

The Golden Nugget sports book was kind enough to release lines for 10 big games from the upcoming college football season and Ohio State is featured – and favored – in two of the games.

The Buckeyes are favored by 11, with an over/under of 45 for their Sept. 28 home game against the Wisconsin Badgers, and again by 6 points, with an o/u of 50.5 for their regular season finale against the Michigan Wolverines.

In other notable games, Alabama is favored by 17 over Virginia Tech, 6 over Texas A&M on the road, and 11.5 in their home clash with LSU in November.

The Nugget is the first book to publish lines for these games, so expect them to move slightly when other books, and bettors, enter the scene. Until then, we now have lines for three Ohio State games, thanks to 5Dimes publishing week one odds that saw the Buckeyes favored by 33 over visiting Buffalo.
