The Game: Ohio State opens as early double-digit favorite vs. Michigan
Published:
One of the greatest rivalries in college football won’t be renewed for another six months, but there are already some early betting lines out for the 2021 showdown between Ohio State and Michigan.
For May, the Buckeyes are a pretty big favorite.
FanDuel recently provided spreads for a handful of college football games this upcoming season. One of those lines was the annual Ohio State-Michigan contest, scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 27 in Ann Arbor.
Right now, the Buckeyes are a 10-point favorite in the game. Ohio State is coming off a 7-1 season in which it won its fourth-straight B1G title and defeated Clemson in the Sugar Bowl to compete in the national championship, but fell in the final contest to Alabama.
Michigan ended the year 2-4 and was forced to cancel last season’s game against Ohio State because of COVID-19 concerns.
Ohio State has won eight-straight games in the head-to-head series against Michigan. Jim Harbaugh has not defeated the Buckeyes in his six seasons at the helm of the Wolverines.
