Ohio State opened Friday morning as 7-point favorites over USC in the Cotton Bowl. With a little over two hours remaining to kickoff, that number is now (-10) at major books like Bovada, Westgate, and Caesars. The line opened at (-6).
According to thespread.com, Cotton Bowl betting is split 50/50, which means a surge of big money bets on the Buckeyes has ballooned the line to (-10).
This kind of movement is not atypical before games. Still, those precious points could swing some fortunes later tonight.
