The Tide have cruised to a perfect 4-0 start to the year, while Ohio State has won two straight after dropping an early game to Texas A&M.
Give me the Buckeyes here. This line seems slightly inflated due to Alabama’s early season success, however they have yet to be tested. Ohio State brought in some solid transfers this offseason. Guys like Jamison Battle and Dale Bonner have helped stretch the floor for Ohio State. The Buckeyes give the Tide all they can handle in this one.
