Why is the Total Line so Big?

The 1.87 for Under 53.5 points to be scored by the two teams looks like really good value. Our prediction is that Texas and Ohio State might not collectively reach this total.

Each Team Bidding to Secure Another Win

Ohio State Buckeyes have won three road games on the spin, triumphing 41-21 in their previous appearance. This was against Oregon Ducks at Rose Bowl.

Texas Longhorns made it back-to-back wins in their last game. It was a 39-31 (OT) road triumph at Mercedes-Benz Stadium when meeting Arizona State Sun Devils.
