The Line: Betting Odds: Washington +8.5 — Over/Under: +52.5
The Ohio State Buckeyes and Washington Huskies meet Saturday in college football action at Husky Stadium. Here’s a Ohio State vs Washington Prediction. This article will include a Ohio State vs Washington Pick.
The Ohio State Buckeyes beat Grambling and Ohio, and they play Minnesota next. The Ohio State Buckeyes have won 7 straight games. Julian Sayin is completing 78.9 percent of his passes for 779 yards, 8 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions. Jeremiah Smith and Carnell Tate have combined for 534 receiving yards and 6 touchdowns, while Will Kacmarek has 4 receptions.
The Ohio State Buckeyes ground game is averaging 192 yards per contest, and Bo Jackson leads the way with 217 yards and 1 touchdown. Defensively, Ohio State is allowing 5.3 points and 227.7 yards per game. Arvell Reese leads the Ohio State Buckeyes with 20 tackles, Caden Curry has 2 sacks and Jermaine Mathews Jr. has 1 interception.
The Washington Huskies beat UC Davis and Washington State, and they play Maryland next. The Washington Huskies have split their last 12 games. Demond Williams Jr. is completing 73.5 percent of his passes for 778 yards, 6 touchdowns, and 0 interceptions. Denzel Boston and Jonah Coleman have combined for 399 receiving yards and 4 touchdowns, while Dezman Roebuck has 6 receptions.
The Washington Huskies ground game is averaging 260 yards per contest, and Jonah Coleman leads the way with 347 yards and 9 touchdowns. Defensively, Washington is allowing 18.3 points and 262.3 yards per game. Deven Bryant leads the Washington Huskies with 17 tackles, Isaiah Ward has 1.5 sacks and Alex McLaughlin has 2 interceptions.
Washington is off to a fine start with an underrated defense and an offense that’s top-10 in both total offense and scoring offense. The problem is Washington hasn’t played anybody up to this point, so the jury is still out on what’s real and what isn’t. Washington has failed to cover 6 of its last 7 games as an underdog. Ohio State is 7-3-1 ATS in its last 11 games when favorites of 7 or more points. Also, Ohio State has had an extra week to prepare for this game. It’s hard to turn down the better team that also has the rest advantage. I expect Ohio State to make a statement and get a big road win by double digits.
