Ohio State vs. Illinois Best Bet

Illinois is coming off a huge come-from-behind victory over USC to get back on track after a dismal 63-10 loss to Indiana a few weeks ago.

However, despite being at home, this is a tough spot for Illinois to get up for after such an emotional win.

This is a historic OSU defense that hasn't allowed double digits to a single opponent all year. Furthermore, the Buckeyes will have plenty of advantages on the perimeter with superstar Jeremiah Smith and Carnell Tate.

Ohio State vs. Illinois Best Bet: Ohio State -14.5
