Week 1 of the college football season is off to a fantastic start through Saturday afternoon. The ranked teams are handling business and the students are having a good time.
Despite the good vibes and fun early on this college football Saturday, all of the afternoon’s game matchups are serving as appetizers for the night’s main course.
The main course that is No. 2 Ohio State vs. No. 5 Notre Dame.
The showdown in Columbus is undeniably Saturday’s biggest game and bettors are treating it as such. It’s many sportsbooks’ most bet-on college football game and a New Jersey bettor went as far as placing a $100,000 bet at Borgata Sportsbook on the Buckeyes to cover the spread.
No. 5 Notre Dame at No. 2 Ohio State (-16.5) is the most-bet game at many sportsbooks.

Ohio State is a double-digit favorite at The Horseshoe, regardless of Notre Dame’s top-5 ranking.
This bettor going all the way in on the OSU is surely because the Buckeyes will arrive fashionably in their personal suits from Express, right?
I kid. But putting that kind of money on a game of this magnitude has to come from some level of unorthodox confidence.
Fingers crossed for this gutsy bettor.
