The Buckeyes slid to 75-to-1 odds, but they aren’t off the board.
We knew that the Iowa loss was going to detrimental to Ohio State’s playoff chances, as well as to their odds of winning the national championship. However, after the Buckeyes’ second loss of the season, Bovada, one of the leading sportsbooks on the Internet, still has Ohio State on the national champion odds board with the 11th best odds to win the title.
Now sitting as a longshot at 75-to-1 odds, OSU entered the Iowa contest with 3-to-1 odds—the second best in the country at that time.

Below is a table of the 10 teams with the best odds to win the championship.
On the Heisman front, Saquon Barkley’s performance against Michigan State was enough to bump him off the top spot, as Baker Mayfield has now jumped back into the driver’s seat of the Heisman debate.
The Oklahoma quarterback enters Friday morning with 1-to-2 odds of taking home the prestigious trophy, while Penn State’s Barkley now has 7-to-4 odds.
After climbing up the ranks following the comeback against the Nittany Lions, J.T. Barrett’s performance against the Hawkeyes dropped him back to 33-to-1 odds of walking away with the Heisman.

On that same listing, the four teams with the best odds to win it all come tournament time are Duke, Michigan State, Kentucky and Arizona.
