Ohio State continues to display an excellent level after having played eight games, being one of the few undefeated teams left in the regular season after the first half. The Buckeyes share the honor of having no defeats in the Big Ten Conference with Michigan, but they are the ones who lead the standings.
Additionally, they have the highest number of points for (391) and the second-lowest number of points against, which means that they have achieved a balance in the performance of their lines. Moreover, they have registered more than 40 points in seven of their eight games played.
Betting on the Northwestern Wildcats
- Regular season record: 1-7
- DraftKings Spread: +38
- BetMGM Moneyline: +2500
- Over/Under: 55.5
Northwestern is the weak opponent for this game, and everything they have done is in stark contrast to Ohio State’s achievements. While their next opponent doesn’t know what defeat means so far, Illinois has become familiar with it, and it might be said they have forgotten what it’s like to win.
They arrive in the middle of a negative streak: seven consecutive losses and only one win to their name in eight games. As a result, they rank last in the Big Ten Conference (West) as the team with the fewest wins. The only game they won was against Nebraska by a score of 31-28 in their debut.
JefeBet Prediction
While anything can happen in sports, there is no logical reason to expect Ohio State to fall to an opponent that has gone two months without a win on the season.
Prediction: Ohio State wins and covers the spread.
