Good teams win, great teams cover.

That's exactly what Ohio State did in a 34-16 win over Illinois yesterday, and that result has led to the Buckeyes being favored by over four touchdowns next weekend as OSU opens in the betting market as 28.5-point favorites over Wisconsin.

FanDuel published the opening line on Sunday following Ohio State's win and an embarrassing shutout loss for the Badgers at home to Iowa by a 37-0 final score. The outcome dropped Wisconsin to 2-4 on the season as supporters of the Badger football program grow increasingly frustrated with head coach Luke Fickell.
