The Marshall Thundering Herd will take on the Ohio State Buckeyes on September 21, 2024, with the Buckeyes entering as 40-point favorites according to DraftKings Sportsbook. The total for the game is set at 52.5 points, which implies that Marshall is not expected to do very much scoring at all in this non-conference matchup. For a full breakdown of Marshall vs Ohio State, including our best bet, continue reading below.
Marshall In a Tough Spot Against Ohio State
The Marshall Thundering Herd are 1-1 entering this weekend's college football action. After beating FCS Stony Brook in their season opener, the Herd lost to Virginia Tech two weeks ago. Here, the Thundering Herd are facing an even tougher opponent in an Ohio State team that is ranked third in the country and will be looking to climb the rankings with a dominant performance this week. For Marshall to even keep this game respectable, they will need to find a way to maintain possession and not continually go three-and-out, something that will be hard to accomplish against the stout defense of the Buckeyes.
Perfect Start Expected to Continue For Ohio State
The Ohio State Buckeyes are 2-0 to start their year, beating Akron and Western Michigan by a combined total of 108-6. After a slow start in the first half of their opener against Akron, the Buckeyes have simply pulverized everyone put in front of them during the non-conference portion of their season. That is expected to continue here against Marshall. With the Buckeyes playing as well as they have been defensively, Marshall is projected to score somewhere around six points in this game.
Marshall vs Ohio State Best Bet
It is never easy betting on a game with a 40-point spread like this Marshall vs Ohio State matchup. But in our opinion, it is worth laying all of those points with the Buckeyes in this non-conference matchup in college football. Ohio State could very well pitch another shutout here, while Marshall continues to struggle against power conference competition, in what could be the biggest blowout of the week on the gridiron.
