The Buckeyes were seeing more action at the sharper books (Michigan -4.5) and Wolverines seeing more action at the recreational shops (Michigan -5) as of Thursday afternoon.  Overall though, betting on the spread was mostly balanced.  On average, michigan was seeing 53% of the wagering, Ohio State 47%. Any side seeing beyond 55% on a game with this type of volume will cut into profits with a loss.

BetOnline, Bovada and Sportsbook.com had this one at Michigan -5.

Bookmaker, Pinnacle and Heritage were holding at Michigan -4.5.

The line move has been -4 to -4.5 and moving to -5 at the recreation shops in an effort to get a little more action on Ohio State.  At these books, more bets were being placed on Michigan.
