Since they last won, they’ve opened with -225 (2021), -225 (2022), +180 (2023), +150 (2024), and now +190 ahead of the 2026 season.
The Buckeyes are 100% the team to beat in the conference as they’ve finished as a top-7 team in the country in each of the last 12 seasons. They also have experience with this team led by Jeremiah Smith, who is easily the best wide receiver in the country, along with arguably a top-5 QB in Julian Sayin.
Can The Hoosiers Run It Back?
The Indiana Hoosiers are coming off their first-ever conference championship in 2025 and a National Championship win. Following the success, many players departed for the NFL, leaving plenty of questions surrounding the upcoming roster that includes a new QB in Josh Hoover, along with four new starters on offense and four on defense. Their odds on Indiana sportsbooks are the second strongest in the conference.
Don’t Count Out The Ducks
Oregon is returning arguably the most important player in all college football in QB Dante Moore, who was a projected top-10 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. With Moore returning and the continued progression of Dakorien Moore and Evan Stewart at receiver, it’s hard to imagine them not competing in the Big Ten after winning the conference in 2024.
