In five years at Ohio State, Urban Meyer has been a model of consistent excellence, never winning fewer than 11 games in a season.
South Point sports book director Chris Andrews expects more of the same in 2017. Andrews said the Buckeyes are No. 1 in his college football power ratings, and their win total of 10½ is the highest on the board.
Regular-season win totals on 130 teams were opened Friday at the South Point. Ohio State and Alabama top the list. Andrews said $60,000 was wagered in the first two hours.
South Point rules: Regular-season games only and teams must play all scheduled opponents; teams must play all regular-season games for action; excludes conference championships and bowl games.
“Over” money showed on Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, East Carolina, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan State, North Texas and Ohio State.
