Ohio State has been on a roll and easily covered in both games this season. The Bobcats are struggling, especially on offense, which doesn’t bode well to cover in this game. We think Ohio State will cover, but the real question will be on the over/under. We think a shutout is possible, but look for the Bobcats to manage a few while Ohio State could possibly score the 46 on its own.
