Wisconsin at Ohio State

Everyone knew Ohio State would have an explosive offense, but the defense needed to improve after the Buckeyes gave up 87 points their last two games in 2021. That question appears to have been answered as the Buckeyes have allowed only 14.3 points per game and their first two games went UNDER by an average of nearly 20 points before soaring OVER against the hapless Toledo defense last week. C.J. Stroud was 22 of 27 passing for 367 yards and five TDs and the Buckeyes scored on all six of their first-half possessions. They'll face a much tougher opponent this week as Wisconsin has allowed only 24 points in three games although it lost against the only competitive opponent and that was 17-14 versus Washington State. That doesn't bode well against the Buckeyes, who have beaten the Badgers eight times in a row with a 5-2-1 ATS record. The last three meetings have gone UNDER, including 34-21 in 2021 and Wisconsin is 3-10 ATS its past 13 games versus teams with winning records and the Badgers are 0-5-1 ATS at Columbus. Wisconsin has gone UNDER five of its last seven road games and five of the last seven meetings have stayed UNDER. Take Ohio State and the UNDER.
