The Buckeyes come in here as underdogs , but it must be noted that they are a bankroll expanding 14-0 ATS as an underdog of 3 or more points since 2009. Im not amored by Sabsans group this season, especially defensively as was the evident when they allowed the Gators to pop 48 pints on them , making them vulnerable against what I estimate is one of Ohio State strongest football programs in years.
The underdog is 5-1 ATS all-time in College Football Playoff Championship games .
