    Nebraska/Ohio State line has already moved 4.5 points

    Started on a dead number at 12.5. Now up to 17. That's a big early money move. OSU coming off back to back shaky performances - a loss at Penn State and an 4 point home win over Northwestern. This after an overtime win at Wisconsin.

    Are the Buckeyes a legitimate contender or are these recent struggles an indicator that they aren't quite as good as previously thought. Can Nebraska hang here at the Horseshoe?

    Not even close. Talk to me on Saturday Morning about what the line is. A whole lot of people are going to learn something about the in's and out's of wagering the hard way.

    Pinnacle. Bookmaker had 12.5 briefly as well.

    Yeah, BookMaker had -13.5 last night when I checked, although it could have been less when it was first released. I liked Ohio State but wasn't ready to pull the trigger... checked again today and it shot to -17.5. I'm not sure there's much meat left on the bone at that price. I do think this game has the potential for a rout, though.

    Wizzle,
    I just confirmed with CS at Bookmaker and their opening line was 13.5, not 12.5...but your point still stands...a big jump of at least 4......the only question is how will Nebraska respond after that heartbreaking loss to Wisky?!...do they come out motivated or dejected?...after all, these are 18 - 20 year old kids we are talking about.

    Both teams are frauds, OSU offense is a joke. They have zero big play capabilities and Nebraska is the same old Nebraska that can't win a game that actually means anything. There will be 20 games on the board that are better plays

    A game with a line move this big means money is coming in on Ohio State. Whether it's dumb money or smart money remains to be seen.

    not smart enough to be emotionally spent but skers will cover 17
    I think they are fighters. And Ohio state doesn't have alot of threat on offense

    Despite receiving just 17% of spread bets, Ohio State has moved from -12.5 to -17 Pinnacle Sports.
