Texas, 9.5.
Michigan, USC, 8.5.
Illinois, Iowa, 7.5.
So there's a lot of winning teams on this schedule.
But I do, I think my phrase would be, it's a...
it's a little bit of an over-anticipation of the new world.
And by that, there is a conversation, I think, in the Ohio State fan base, and I think generally in college football, maybe you guys agree with this, that if we're going to have the better teams playing each other and maybe the Big Ten wants to make good games, the SEC is playing nine conference games now, that if you still are going to keep the non-conference games like Ohio State-Texas, you just have to get a little accustomed to good teams losing more.
Matt, do you think that that's something that college football and maybe college football fan bases generally need to be prepared more, especially maybe if we eventually creep towards a Super League, that's what it's going to be, right?
That I feel like that is a little bit of a conversation in the Ohio State fan base.
Hey, you're playing good teams, you might lose.
Mmm, how delicious.
I can't wait for how rude an awakening is going to be.
Well, on DraftKings, I also think there's like a four-way tie at plus 700.
That FanDuel has Ohio State as kind of as a favorite.
I think it's like Indiana, Texas, Notre Dame, Ohio State are tied on DraftKings.
But anyway, to your point, yeah, I don't know.
Ari, you have a theory?
Yeah, 100 to 1, yeah.
Yeah.
It is interesting as we bring up the idea that sort of the divide between Ohio State's over-under win total and their national championship odds.
