The Ohio State football team has its hardest game of the season tonight against the Oregon Ducks. The Buckeyes are ready to show that their good start isn't due to a light schedule. This is a top-five matchup that will have Big Ten Championship and national championship implications.

Tonight will be the first time that Autzen Stadium has hosted a top-five matchup. It's going to be an extremely loud atmosphere that the Buckeyes haven't seen this year. Are they going to be prepared to play in such a hostile environment? They should, considering how many veterans they have on the team.

But this is college football. The Ohio State Buckeyes are not promised a win just because they have a lot of veterans. They need to execute and be the best version of themselves in order to do that. The oddsmakers think it's going to be close but that the Buckeyes will prevail.

The final odds for the Ohio State football team vs. Oregon and a prediction

According to DraftKings, the Buckeyes are a three-point favorite. It's kind of surprising considering the fact that the Buckeyes are on the road. Still, that tells you how great they think this Ohio State football team is. The over/under for this game is 54. That's a pretty good number for this game.

Final prediction: Ohio State football 28 Oregon 24

Initially, I thought the Buckeyes would win by double-digits. They just look so dominant on both sides of the ball. I'm not sure how Oregon is going to be able to throw the ball effectively enough to win this game. But I do think the Ducks are extremely talented, so I don't think they'll be blown out.

I think Ohio State's running game is going to be too much for the Ducks to deal with. Quinshon Judkins and TreVeyon Henderson are too talented to be contained. The offensive line is playing the best it has in over three years. It's going to overwhelm Oregon.

It's going to be a great game to watch.
