The oddsmakers have spoken.
The Buckeyes have been an underdog ever since the line opened for Monday's showdown with the Crimson Tide. Alabama opened as a 7.5-point favorite, and that number has since grown to eight. Needless to say, Ohio State will need to put up yet another fine showing if the team hopes to take down the Tide.
Vegas also has released some prop bets for Monday's matchup. It's no surprise who's viewed as the favorites for the game MVP, but there are a few interesting props to look out for. All of these are courtesy of Bet Online.

The Buckeyes and Crimson Tide will kick off Monday night after 8 p.m. Ohio State is 7-0 on the season while Nick Saban has Alabama sitting at 12-0. It's pretty clear that Vegas doesn't think much of the Buckeye pass defense. And who's to blame them considering what Alabama has done thus far?
Which props are standing out the most for you?
