It was another disappointing year for the Ohio State Buckeyes in 2023, as Ryan Day's men went undefeated before falling to Michigan for the third consecutive season.
Ohio State missed out on the College Football Playoff because of it and are retooling across the board after quarterback Kyle McCord was kindly asked to leave and leading receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. was drafted.
If you're looking to bet on the Ohio State Buckeyes in 2024, read on to see the types of wagers you can make, including point spreads, totals, moneylines, props and more.
How to Bet on Ohio State
As noted above, as one of the biggest teams in college football, there are a variety of ways to bet on Ohio State, whether you're looking at a game by game basis or the futures market.
Ohio State is one of the favorites to win the College Football Playoff in 2024,s a bettors are all over the Buckeyes with new quarterback Will Howard leading the offense.
Betting on Ohio State Point Spread
Betting point spreads are wagers based on the expectation that a team will win or lose by a certain number of points. The Buckeyes went 7-5-1 overall against the spread in 2023. Here’s an example of how this wager type works:
- Ohio State -2.5 (-110)
- Indiana +2.5 ( -110)
In this situation, Ohio State is favored by 2.5 points against Indiana. If the Buckeyes win the game by three or more points, a $100 wager on Ohio State would come with a payout of $90.91. If the Hoosiers won the game outright or lost by two points or less, the same $100 wager would net $110 plus the original $100 for a total of $210.
Ohio State Over/Unders
The Over/under, also known as totals, is a wager placed on the combined scoring of a single game. Bookmakers come up with a number and you can either bet the over or — you guessed it — the under. Here’s how it works:
Let's say Ohio State plays Wisconsin and the over/under is set at 60 points. A wager on the over would require the Buckeyes and Badgers to score 61 total points or more to win. Betting the under is an expectation that the two teams would score 59 or fewer points. It's also possible for the bet to push, which would happen if the game finished with exactly 60 points scored.
In 2023, the Buckeyes hit the over in just three of their games.
Betting on Ohio State Moneylines
Ohio State’s only two losses last season came against Michigan in the regular season finale and a meaningless bowl game against Missouri, making the Buckeyes one of the best picks in college football on the moneyline, which is as straightforward as it gets when it comes to betting. The only thing to do here is pick the winner. Check out this example:
- Ohio State -160
- Michigan +180
The minus (-) and plus (+) signs distinguish the favorite from the underdog, making Ohio State the favorite in this scenario. Odds can be understood more clearly if you think in terms of $10 or $100 increments. A wager on the Buckeyes odds would mean every $160 bet nets $100. And it's the opposite for underdogs: Here the Michigan moneyline was set at +180, meaning a $100 wager would profit $180.
Moneylines are also commonly used when making parlays, which are multiple bets tied into one. Let’s say you bet on Ohio State’s moneyline and a -2.5 point spread, Ohio State would need to win by three points for that bet to be successful. The risk may be greater, but so is the reward with increased odds.
Betting on Ohio State Props
Player props are wagers on a single player, and they’re tied to a single stat found in the box score for a game or even the whole season.
However, it is important to note that rules differ from state to state regarding college football player prop rules, so be sure to check the rules of the state that you are in.
