While nobody expects the young 2016 Buckeyes to be favored when they roll into Norman on Sept. 17, one Vegas casino says the Sooners will be by less than a touchdown.

Oklahoma was favored by as many as nine points early last month. 

Perhaps more notably, however, South Point lists Ohio State as 5-point favorites against Jim Harbaugh's Michigan Wolverines on Nov. 26. According to the Las Vegas Super Book, Michigan is more favored to win the 2017 title than Ohio State:

These lines are liable to fluctuate between now and kickoff, but if they sound too good to pass up, you and your cash need to find your way to 9777 S. Las Vegas Blvd in Las Vegas, Nevada.
