Football Prop Bets for the Notre Dame vs. Ohio State Game Week 1
Another great game is on tap Saturday evening, perhaps the most anticipated of Week 1. 60% of the ticket action is coming in on Ohio State and 60% of the cash on Notre Dame. But this game is going to get a lot of action, so even a 55/45 variance in action will make a difference. The line has dropped from Ohio State -17 to -16 in recent days, this after opening at -14.5 back in May. Ohio State (2) had a power rating of 95.35 and Notre Dame (6) 89.19, giving us a line of -8.5 after the home field advantage has been factored in. Be careful though. These big overlays often result in the favorites winning in a dominant fashion. Will that happen here? We say Ohio State got this.
