Big Ten Futures: Wisconsin, Buckeyes Battle
The Big Ten futures offer bettors a chance to make money as the odds are close and there are some solid underdog choices in the mix.
Ohio State looks like the safe pick. They are the favorites at 5/4 and will see a strong defense returning and J.K Dobbins running the ball. For the last couple seasons Ohio State has owned the Big Ten. However, with Urban Meyer’s future with the team up in the air and a lot of question marks at the QB position gives the underdogs here value.

Wisconsin is just behind the Buckeyes at 5/2. Running back Jonathan Taylor put up 1,977 yards last season and should see similar success this season with a lot of offensive starters coming back.
