Betting on the Toledo Rockets
- Regular Season Record: 2-0
- Spread: +32
- Moneyline: N/A
- Over/Under: 62 Points
The Toledo Rockets should give Ohio State little more trouble than Arkansas State did last week. Toledo might be one of the best teams in the Mid-American Conference this year, but it’s hard to get an accurate read because the blowout wins in the first two games came against not the most demanding competition: 37-0 to LIU Sharks and 55-10 to Massachusetts.
The Rockets had a solid defense last year and are expected to be among the leaders in that area again this year.
Special attention should be paid to Toledo quarterback Dequan Finn, who rushed for 74 yards and two touchdowns last week. He is fast and slippery enough to take off and make a profit on tricky plays.
Betting on the Ohio State Buckeyes
- Regular Season Record: 2-0
- Spread: -32
- Moneyline: N/A
- Over/Under: 62 Points
First, it was Notre Dame, 25-10; then, a crushing 45-12 win over Arkansas State. That’s how well the Ohio State Buckeyes are coming to the game in which they will host the Toledo Rockets in their stadium -which is expected to be full to capacity- in the third round of the NCAA. The Buckeyes will work to fine-tune their explosive offense before next week’s Big Ten opener against Wisconsin. The offense is their most powerful weapon, and their quarterback, CJ Stroud, is responsible for that.
The big early-season revelation is Marvin Harrison Jr. who stole the spotlight last week after two of the Buckeyes’ starting receivers were benched with injuries. Harrison racked up 184 yards per reception, including three touchdowns.
JefeBet Prediction
This Toledo vs Ohio State really is a very difficult matchup to predict, as both have the weapons to beat their opponents, and they’ve started the NCAA season off with a bang. However, and despite being in a hostile environment, at JefeBet we believe that the Toledo Rockets have a slight advantage over the Buckeyes and will be the ones to prevail at the end of the day.
Prediction: Toledo Rockets Win and Over 62.
