Ohio State Buckeyes Season Win Total: Over/Under 11.5 Games Betting Analysis
The Ohio State Buckeyes, coming off a Rose Bowl victory, aim to reach the College Football Playoff in the 2022-23 season. Their path includes challenging conference and non-conference matchups that could make or break their playoff hopes.
The betting line for Ohio State's season win total is set at 11.5, with odds of -205 for the over and +165 for the under. This follows their 10-win 2021 season, where they only lost to Oregon and Michigan.
Key Schedule Highlights:
- Season opener vs Notre Dame (primetime College Gameday matchup)
- Non-conference games vs Arkansas State and Toledo
- Conference schedule includes Wisconsin, Rutgers, Michigan State, Iowa, and Penn State
- Season finale against rival Michigan at home
The schedule breaks down into three phases:
- Early Season: Notre Dame, Arkansas State, Toledo, Wisconsin, Rutgers
- Mid-Season: Michigan State, Iowa, Penn State (with a BYE week)
- Final Stretch: Northwestern, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan
Analysis: The Buckeyes should improve on last year's performance with CJ Stroud and TreVeyon Henderson returning for their second year. While Notre Dame, Penn State, and Michigan present serious challenges, Ohio State's offensive firepower and experience should help them exceed the 11.5-win total.
Betting Prediction: Take the OVER on 11.5 wins. The team's talent level, returning starters, and motivation from last year's Michigan loss position them well for a playoff run.
