Betting Lines For Ohio State Showdowns vs. Michigan and Notre Dame Released

Opening betting lines for two of Ohio State's biggest matchups of the 2023 season have been released.

After nearly missing out on the College Football Playoff final last season, the Ohio State Buckeyes will have yet another difficult road ahead of them in 2023 and are currently projected to face one of the more difficult schedules in an already tough Big 10.

Chief among those big-time matchups, being showdowns against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, as well as their annual tilt with their arch-rival, Michigan Wolverines

Recently, the opening lines for both of those games have been released by the FanDuel Sportsbook.

And naturally, according to the odds, the Buckeyes are set for a tough test in Ann Arbor, with the Wolverines favored by two points at Michigan Stadium.

Last season, the Buckeyes were favored by 8.5 points against the Wolverines, but ultimately fell in blowout fashion, 45-23.

Against the Fighting Irish, on the other hand, the Buckeyes are favored by 8.5 points.

Ohio State was 16.5 favorites last season in Columbus, ultimately taking down the Irish 21-10 in a defensive battle.

FanDuel also has the Buckeyes also has the third-best odds at +750 behind Alabama and Georgia to win the national championship. 

They'll likely need to secure wins against both Michigan and Notre Dame to accomplish that goal.
