The #2 Ohio State Buckeyes improved to 8-1 on the season with a 45-0 blowout win over Purdue in Week 11 and as a result, their NCAA Championship odds moved from +350 to +300 at BetMGM, where they’ve attracted a sportsbook-high 14.0% of the tickets and 17.7% of the handle to win it all. They’re BetMGM’s second-highest liability in the market.

With their only hiccup coming on a 32-31 loss at #1 Oregon, the Buckeyes have otherwise taken care of business, particularly with their 20-13 road win over #4 Penn State. The Buckeyes will face Northwestern on the road (at Wrigley Field), host undefeated #5 Indiana and then host Michigan to close out the regular season.

Ohio State opened as a 30.5-point favorite over Northwestern for their Week 12 battle. BetQL is giving the Buckeyes a 98.21% chance to win the game outright and projects them to win by 27 points.

Ohio State enters Week 12 leading the entire FBS in average scoring margin at +27.9, averaging 38.6 points per game (7th) and 10.7 points allowed per contest (1st), which highlights their overall dominance.
