We’re getting into the business end of February, so NCAA hoops is becoming serious. The jockeying for premium NCAA Tournament seeds has begun, with some sharp elbows, as is college basketball betting. Sunday afternoon presents an epic clash that, to the delight of fans coast to coast, just might be repeated a few times into early April.
Michigan at Ohio State -1½, Total 148½, Sunday, 1 pm ET
The Michigan State Spartans, who have qualified for 23 straight NCAA Tournaments, host the Ohio State Buckeyes Thursday, Feb. 25 in East Lansing. Tip is set for 9pm ET at the Breslin Center. Chris Hotlmann’s Ohio State club came up just short in its showdown with the Maize and Blue Sunday, going down 92-87 in Columbus.

Michigan State at Ohio State: Odds, lines, predictions and picks Prediction. Ohio State 74, Michigan State 65.

In what could be a matchup of two unbeaten teams playing for a spot in the Big Ten Championship and possibly the CFB Playoff, the Westgate Las Vegas Superbook released a very early betting line of the Buckeyes -10 over the Wolverines. It was recently announced that The Game, which is on November 26th in Columbus, Ohio, will kickoff at noon.
Action: Ohio State -1½
Many believe Baylor vs. Gonzaga is a foregone conclusion as the likely NCAA championship game—too many. Others might favor Virginia vs. Villanova, owners of three of the past four national crowns.
We’re taking a different tack, which is why this game is so significant, the first of a mini-series of heavyweight showdowns. Think Thrilla in Manilla and Rumble in the Jungle. These two won’t meet again in the regular season, but we envision the first rematch occurring in Indianapolis, on Sunday, March 14, in the Big Ten tournament finale.

What’s more, I’ll peg the Buckeyes and Wolverines to meet for the national trophy, back in Lucas Oil Stadium in Indy, on Monday, April 5. This is THE Trilogy. This first one will set the tone for some major flexing by the Big Ten Conference.
The Buckeye State Owns The Wolverine State
Recent history not only does not favor Wolverines football against its rival south of the border, but Michigan hoops has been beaten down by the Buckeyes, too.
Especially in Columbus, where Ohio State has won 13 of the past 14 games. Some of those defeats have come with a particular sting, as in 2012-13, when the Wolverines won their first 16 games before traveling to central Ohio and losing, 56-53.
Twice during our frame of reference, the Buckeyes beat the Wolverines twice in the regular season and then capped the maize-and-blue misery with another defeat in the conference tournament. Two bitter trifectas for Michigan.
In those previous 14 games inside Value City Arena, Michigan hit 70 points only in its sole victory, 70-60, in 2013-14. Those other 13 meetings, all defeats, were by an average margin of 69-56.
Battle-Tested Bucks
Ohio State is tougher. There, we said it. At home Thursday night, the Wolverines cradled a comfortable advantage before wilting in the final minutes and didn’t end up covering against Rutgers.
Betting Line Osu Vs Um
That let-down raises a flag. The élite squads cover. The Wolverines are rated third in the latest NET rankings, 5-1 against Quad 1 foes. The Buckeyes are sixth, 9-3 versus Quad 1 opponents. Ohio State has twice as much exposure battling the toughest teams, which will help it shine, yet again, on its own floor against its most bitter rival.
Defending Their Court
Last season, Ohio State won, 77-63, at Value Center. The Buckeyes established themselves in the final 10 minutes, 28-17. Duane Washington Jr. (20 points) and CJ Walker (15 points, seven assists to a single turnover) were exceptional.
A junior guard, Washington averages 14.9 points, and nearly three rebounds and assists. Senior guard Walker (8.7 ppg, 2.7 rpg) gives out 4.3 assists a game and owns a sterling assists-to-turnovers ratio of better than 2-to-1.
EJ Liddell (15.6 ppg, 6.6 rpg), a 6-7, 240-pound sophomore, will confuse Michigan with his superb inside-outside flexibility. Junior 6-7 swingman Justice Sueing (10.5 ppg, 5.8, rpg), a Honolulu native, and power forward Kyle Young (8.8 ppg, 5.7 rpg), a 6-8 senior from Canton, Ohio, round out the Buckeyes’ formidable attack.
In a game forecasted to be tight, free throws will be imperative. Ohio State (77.4%) is 24th in the land, Michigan (76.5%) 33rd. But in their past three, the Buckeyes have been on the mark, at 85%, the Wolverines have shot 76.8% at the stripe. Another check for the home team.
Seeking Double-Digit Scorers
Should sophomore forward Franz Wagner, senior guard Mike Smith, freshman center Hunter Dickinson and senior swingman Isaiah Livers get on the same page and all tally double-digit points against an opponent, that foe is in trouble.
That has happened four times, all comfortable triumphs—77-54 against Wisconsin, 85-66 against Northwestern, 80-69 at Nebraska and 84-65 against Ball State—for the Wolverines. Don’t expect that to occur in Columbus.
Wagner and Livers combined to score 24 points last season at Value Center, hitting 6 of 16 shots beyond the perimeter; the rest of the no-show Wolverines were 1-for-10 from long range. All five Buckeyes starters scored in double figures in their victory.
House of Horrors
This is a rough spot for the Wolverines, who played for 37 minutes against Rutgers. Michigan might have been hindered by Livers’s first single-digit scoring output in eight games against the Scarlet Knights. The Wolverines now head to their haunted house.
Plus, the teams are drifting in different directions. Michigan’s effective field-goal percentage in its past three games is 0.491, more than 70 points below its season average, and Ohio State is at a top-20 0.582.
The Buckeyes being favored by such a slim margin is a gift.
The 2020 Big Ten Conference will begin in Week 8, in a schedule of eight intraconference games.
2020 Ohio State Win Total Odds
Ohio State 2020 wins: Over 11 (-134) or Under 11 (+110)
Expectations for Ohio State are so high again this year, that bettors looking to cash an 'over' ticket on their regular season win total odds will need them to run the table once again. QB Justin Fields enters the year as a Heisman front-runner, and there is no denying that the Buckeyes are one of the most talented teams in the land.
2020 Ohio State Buckeyes Schedule
- Week 8 - Oct. 24 vs. Nebraska
- Week 9 - Oct. 17 at Penn State
- Week 10 - Oct. 31 vs. Rutgers
- Week 11 - Nov. 7 at Maryland
- Week 12 - Nov. 14 vs. Indiana
- Week 13 - Nov. 21 at Illinois
- Week 14 - Nov. 28 at Michigan State
- Week 15 - Dec. 5 vs. Michigan
However, a road trip to Oregon in Week 2 is never an easy trip for any visiting program, and while they do get to host the hated Michigan Wolverines this year, they've got back-to-back weeks in October where they've got to go to Michigan State and Penn State. Ohio State will still be laying points in all of those games, but needing to run the table on an 'over' play leaves next to nothing in terms of wiggle room for them this year.

2020 Ohio State Game of the Year Odds
- Week 9 - Ohio State (-6.5) at Penn State
- Week 15 - Michigan at Ohio State (-11.5)
Three games for the Buckeyes are already classified in this category and they are the three that you would expect to be here.
Their trip to Happy Valley to face Penn State has a posted line of -6.5. And then there is the annual showdown with Michigan, a rivalry game that the Buckeyes have won eight years in a row. Current odds have Ohio State laying -11.5 points at home for that contest this year, and if they cover double digit spreads in 2020 at the rate they did in 2019, this number will do nothing but go up.
Ohio State Odds to win Big 10 Championship
Yes (-230)
The Buckeyes are a clear cut favorite to claim another Big 10 title in 2020 and rightfully so. With them already listed as favorites -6.5 or more in their perceived three toughest games of the year, the lofty spreads they'll have to cover in the rest of their games are going to be large, meaning that outright wins shouldn't be an issue for this team.
Barring significant injury, Ohio State should end up winning the Big Ten conference again in 2020, as long as they are able to do what they've done for the past eight years and beat Michigan. At home, they likely will, so it's more of a question if bettors want to lay the -230 price on them or not. It may arguably be a better wager then going 'over' their win total of 11.
Ohio State Odds to Make 2020-21 College Football Playoff
Yes (-230) or No (+180)
Same question comes up here in terms of wanting to lay the price or not, as a Big 10 title all but assures the winner of a playoff spot, as long as they've got one or fewer losses to their name. It's one of the deepest conferences from top to bottom in the country, and that has worked against the conference as a whole in both 2017-18 and 2018-19 when the Big 10 was on the outside of the College Football Playoffs, and three of the past four years have seen Big 10 teams ranked 5th or 6th to miss out.
But the 2020 version of Ohio State isn't likely to be involved in those types of questionable selection committee scenarios, as they'll likely either win the conference with ease (one loss or less), or stumble a couple of times and get beat by one of their rivals for the conference crown.
Ohio State Odds to Win 2020-21 College Football Playoff
Yes (+300)
The futures odds on Ohio State winning the National Championship all might be the better betting play to make from a value standpoint, as they'll no doubt be 'live' to go the distance if they do indeed find themselves in the playoff. This way, you don't have to lay a -230 price if you would prefer not to, and should they be one of the final four teams left standing, future hedging opportunities are more readily available to bettors who choose to go this route.
Ohio State Odds for Players to win the 2020 Heisman Trophy
The Buckeyes currently have two players listed in the Heisman Trophy Odds betting market.
(Position, Big 10 Player, School, Odds)- QB Justin Fields, Ohio State 7/2
- RB Trey Sermon, Ohio State 33/1
Ohio State Buckeyes – Postseason Forecast
2020 should be another year where the Ohio State Buckeyes find themselves in another prominent Bowl game regardless of whether or not it's part of the playoff format or not. As a team with a chalk price to simply make the playoffs, that's something that's hard to ignore, although a potential early season slip up – say, in Oregon – could have their year spiral out of control. But bettors should expect this team to be in the playoff conversation all year long.
Ohio State Buckeyes Season Prediction
Buckeyes QB Justin Fields is the Heisman favorite currently (+350), and while the preseason favorites tend to not get there in the end, bettors can't deny his talent at all. He stepped right into the fire in his first year with Ohio State in 2019, and with how the year ended, he and his teammates have to feel like they've got some unfinished business to attend to in 2020.
Road trips to Oregon and Penn State are some big potential land minds to avoid for them though, and while things vs Michigan have been rather easy for the better part of the past decade, chances are it's not going to be like that forever. Finishing 2020 with an 11-1 straight-up (SU) record and Big 10 title is where the Buckeyes season likely lands, which makes that -230 price on the conference crown something that should be worth laying.
Buckeyes 2019 Betting Recap
2019 was a year that saw the Ohio State Buckeyes run the table in the regular season, going 12-0 SU and then winning the Big 10 title and earning a CFB Playoff berth as the #2 team in the country because of it. They won all 13 of those games by double digits, were a point spread darling in the betting markets at 9-4 ATS through the Big 10 title game. A run of eight straight ATS wins where they were -14.5 point favorites or greater in every game from Game 2 through Game 9 will be a run many bettors remember for awhile.

Yet, what Ohio State football players will remember is them coughing up a 16-0 lead in the CFB Semi-final game vs Clemson, not punching enough scoring drives into the end zone early, and paying for it later when Clemson scored with under two minutes left in the game to win. That loss sets the Buckeyes up for a year of redemption in 2020, as they are once again loaded with talent across the board and expected to have a shot to play for the national championship once again.
