Scott Van Pelt makes pick against the spread in Ohio State vs. Wisconsin game
Published:
Scott Van Pelt made a few betting picks ahead of a full slate of college football games on Saturday.
Van Pelt, the longtime host of SportsCenter, made his prediction for a B1G battle between Ohio State and Nebraska.
The Buckeyes are coming off a win against rival Penn State and are looking to keep their momentum going into November. Wisconsin won a close one last week against Illinois, and the Badgers are hoping for a big game this week to pull off an upset.
Van Pelt has faith that the Badgers can at least cover the spread, picking them to cover a tough line of +14.5.
“Ohio State is not — they’ve found solid footing, but Madison at night on Halloween weekend is extra levels of weird,” Van Pelt said. “Badgers to keep it close.”
While Ohio State has been dominant for much of the season, Wisconsin’s atmosphere should give the Badgers a slight boost.
The game will kickoff at 7:30 p.m. ET Saturday night.
