Ohio State vs. Indiana football picks: What the oddsmakers say
A huge battle between top-five ranked Big Ten teams kicks off as No. 2 Ohio State welcomes No. 5 Indiana on Saturday. Here’s how the oddsmakers are predicting the game right now.
Ohio State moved to 6-1 in Big Ten play but still sits in third place in the standings thanks to that 1-point loss at Oregon earlier this year, and this game will determine second place in the league.
Standing in the Buckeyes’ way is arguably the surprise team in college football this season: undefeated Indiana, playing its first-ever 10-win season behind the nation’s second-ranked scoring offense under first-year head coach Curt Cignetti.
What do the wiseguys expect will happen as the Buckeyes host the Hoosiers this weekend?
Let’s check in with the early predictions for Ohio State vs. Indiana in this Week 12 college football game, according to the oddsmakers.
Ohio State is an 11.5 point favorite against Indiana, according to the lines at FanDuel Sportsbook.
The book lists the total at 52.5 points for the game.
And it set the moneyline odds for Ohio State at -465 and for Indiana at +350 to win outright.
Ohio State: -11.5 (-110)
