How many points would you need to "bet against" Ohio State in Blacksburg on September 7th? I would need at least 30.
Online casino 5Dimes, however, pegs Ohio State as a 20.5-point favorite. That's two points higher than Bovada's opening line of the same game from back in February.
To play Devil's advocate (read: to be a dick), there is a case for taking Virginia Tech and the points. It's a nationally-televised home night game against the defending world champions, and they're 20.5-point underdogs. That's disrespect.
It also still employs Bud Foster.
