What does Vegas know? Expecting to see anything from "pick 'em" to OSU +3 (purely home field advantage), I was shocked to see this:
Ohio State - 6.5
My initial reaction is "that's too much, I'd take Michigan." But Vegas probably knows that will be the natural reaction and that much of the money will come in on Michigan. That's very bad for Vegas - if it is a close game. But if Ohio State wins by 7 (or more) Vegas makes a lot of money. Last time I checked, Vegas is in the business of making a lot of money. They must think the Buckeyes are going to win by more than a touchdown. I can find no other explanation, especially after looking at the statistics.
