On October 22, the Ohio State Buckeyes (6-0) will kick off their seventh game of the season against the Iowa Hawkeyes (3-3) at 12:00 p.m. ET in Columbus, Ohio. This series has been very interesting with the home team going 5-2 straight-up, but 3-3-1 against the spread during the last seven contests.
Our friends at Tipico, our official odds provider, currently have Ohio State listed as a mighty large 29.5-point favorite with the total points set at 49.5. This seems like a large spread, but Ohio State has done well in this series winning 13 of the last 15 match-ups and going 9-5-1 against the spread during that time.
It should be noted that the last time these two teams met was in 2017 and our beloved Buckeyes lost 55-24 despite being an 18-point favorite at the time.
