Ohio State is just days away from playing its first College Football Playoff game this season, as the Buckeyes were granted a first-round bye this year. This time, the Buckeyes will face the 10-seed Miami Hurricanes in their first matchup. Miami was able to beat Texas A&M in the first round, but it certainly was a game some fans wish they could forget.
Quickly after the Hurricanes won their matchup and knew they would face the Buckeyes in the Goodyear Cotton Bowl, the betting odds for the game were released. Ohio State has been a steady favorite for the last week and a half, right now sitting at 9.
