Despite a close call in Madison Saturday night, Vegas still loves the Buckeyes.
Ohio State opened as a 20-point favorite for Saturday's game against Penn State in State College, with movement at some online books quickly sliding another point in the Buckeyes' favor.
Urban Meyer is undefeated at 4–0 against Penn State (3–2), though the Nittany Lions have played heavily-favored Ohio State teams tight in the Bucks' last two trips to Beaver Stadium. Two years ago, OSU escaped 31–24 in double-overtime, thanks to a walk-off sack from Joey Bosa.
Ohio State has been favored in every game they've played this season, covering the first four games, but failing to do so the last two weeks, including last night's nail-biter against Wisconsin. Like the Badgers, Penn State has the week off before welcoming the Buckeyes.
The Buckeyes and Nittany Lions kick off on ABC at 8 p.m. Saturday.
