After thrashing Rutgers 56-0, Ohio State is expected to have another lopsided victory this Saturday.

According to Odds Shark, the Buckeyes are currently a 31.5-point favorite for Saturday’s B1G home opener against Maryland. Ohio State is 4-1 on the year and 2-0 in conference play while the Terrapins are 3-1 and 1-0 in the B1G. Both teams are coming off wins.

The Terrapins knocked off Minnesota on the road last weekend in exciting fashion, as Ty Johnson sprinted to the end zone from 34 yards out to score the game-winning touchdown with just over a minute left in the game. The Buckeyes, obviously, had little trouble with the Scarlet Knights in Piscataway.

Last year, Ohio State clobbered Maryland in College Park, winning 62-3. The Buckeyes have won all three meetings between the two programs.

Saturday’s game is schedule for a 4 p.m. kick and will air on FOX.
