The first game of the B1G season is still over three months away, but the odds for the conference championship have already been released.
FanDuel recently released the odds for the 2021 B1G title. To nobody’s surprise, Ohio State is the favorite to win the conference championship next season, which would mark the Buckeyes’ fifth-straight league crown.
At the bottom is Illinois, which was given +17000 odds to win the league title. The Fighting Illini finished last season 2-6 but have undergone a coaching change, parting ways with Lovie Smith and bringing in Bret Bielema.
Here’s a look at the odds for all 14 teams entering the 2021 season. Note that Rutgers did not have odds.
Ohio State Buckeyes: -200
Wisconsin Badgers: +900
Michigan Wolverines: +900
