The Ohio State football team is the favorite to win the National Championship

According to FanDuel, the Buckeyes have the best odds of winning the national title. They sit at +190, just ahead of Georgia and Alabama who sit at +200 and +220 respectively. While there’s not a ton of value in picking the Buckeyes, you still do get some.

This might be the best number you get them at the rest of the season. Unless they slip up against Penn State, their odds are just going to keep getting better in terms of winning it all. That’s worse value for you as a bettor. +190 might be the best you can do.

Do I think Ohio State is going to win the national title? I’m not entirely sure yet. I’d like to think that they would, but I haven’t seen them play a good team yet. We’ll learn a lot more about their title chances after that Penn State game in Happy Valley. That will tell me just how improved this defense is.

I absolutely think the Ohio State Buckeyes have the talent to do so, especially on offense. I don’t think there’s a single team that can stop that offense. It’s whether or not the defense can hold up against the likes of an actual good offense, which they haven’t seen yet.

The final bet that could be a good one has to deal with how Ohio State does in each individual game the rest of the way.
