Now three hours out from kickoff, the folks on staff at Eleven Warriors offer final score predictions and examine a set of prop bets ahead of Ohio State's showdown with Indiana.
With hopefully far better weather in store than what Ohio State had to deal with at Northwestern last weekend, C.J. Stroud and the Buckeye passing attack will look to get back on track against an Indiana squad that comes to town on a six-game slide. In fact, the Hoosiers have yet to win a single road game this season and have no conference wins beyond what has proven to be a season-opening stunner against Illinois back in September.
Now just three hours away from kickoff, the authoritative postulators on Ohio State football at Eleven Warriors gladly offer their scoring predictions and provide a glance at the betting market for the 10th game on the Buckeyes' schedule.I’m not sure fans will be able to take much from the outcome but I do expect Ohio State to play with more piss and vinegar than last Saturday.
While the spread for this contest opened last weekend at 31½ points, that amount has swelled significantly since into a margin of 40½ in favor of the Buckeyes. Ohio State owns a 3-7 record against the spread in their previous 10 games with Indiana, and the Hoosiers have also covered in six straight trips to Columbus. The road team in this matchup also boasts a 6-0 record ATS in the last six meetings between these schools.
Five members of the Eleven Warriors staff believe the Buckeyes will cover today, while eight believe they will fall short of winning by the projected spread. Chase Brown easily has the greatest margin of victory with a forecasted win by nine touchdowns, while Griffin Strom believes Ohio State will miss covering by 12½ points.The over/under point total witnessed a smaller increase since open than the spread, with the initial approximation of 57½ rising to 61 as of Saturday morning.
Quite a divide exists among the 11W staff concerning the final overall tally. Six folks have sided with the over, while five back the under and two expect a push. Brown's estimation of 77 points easily serves as the greatest amount, while Johnny Ginter expects a total of just 52 on the day. Jason Priestas and Josh Poloha both dialed in exactly 61 points.
