2014 Week 1 College Football Betting Lines, Free Pick: Ohio State vs. Navy
Just how drastically did the Ohio State vs. Navy line change after it was announced the Buckeyes had lost starting quarterback Braxton Miller? Actually just 2.5 points, down from -19 to -16.5 at BetPhoenix.com.
The total took the biggest hit: Down from 63 to what is now a steady 55.5.
It’s interesting to note that, while Ohio State had lost their last five games Against The Spread, the Midshipmen come into this game 4-0 ATS and 5-1 ATS in non-conference games. They won their last five games of last season and seven of their last ten going back to early October. Navy also won all six of their home games.
They were scorched by Duke on the road, a school oddsmakers have winning 8 regular season games but only lost by 4 points to a ranked Notre Dame team.
Quarterback Keenan Reynolds is coming off a sophomore season in which Navy's option offense helped him set an NCAA record for rushing touchdowns by a quarterback with 31, which also tied Colorado State running back Kapri Bibbs for the most in the nation.
The only other players with more rushing TDs in a season are Barry Sanders (37) with Oklahoma State and Wisconsin's Montee Ball (33).
85% of the betting public is backing OSU.
Gambling911.com’s first pick of the new College Football season will be on Navy to cover the +16.5.
There are some who believe this is the only game not winnable for Navy in 2014, so what we have here is a solid team as a +16.5 underdog.
