Once again Ohio State opens as underdogs to Michigan
Joe Maiorana-USA TODAY Sports “The odds-makers just never learn.”
Again? Really?
The game is months away. Football hasn’t even started yet. And yet, the way-too-early odds from the Golden Nugget in Las Vegas have Ohio State as a 3.5-point underdog to Michigan.
Much of the doubt can be attributed simply to the unknown. Without Urban Meyer, how will Ryan Day fare? With Dwayne Haskins moving on to the NFL, what will Justin Fields’ impact be? And with Nick Bosa gone, how will Chase Young function on the defensive line? All these are fair questions, but it is unfair to assume that all aspects of Ohio State’s team will be worse because of the changes.
